It is hard to say.
Cinematics is $86 more, not $150.
See aliexpress link provided @danyyyel.
You can ask seller for discount, sometimes it could work.

Your link show not Cinematics matte box.

ooops! LOL. I missed that:)
any thoughts on the ones I linked? TrusMT have a good deal on the mattebox in july as you can win one for 308$+65 shipping, but I don't know if it's worth spending 150$ more on the cinematics one which looks really great or this which also looks solid? . http://cgi.ebay.com/5D2-7D-D90-D3S-Matte-Box-DSLR-Kit-Rod-Support-Mattebox-/220816773169?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3369b49031

Hmm, my biggest lens-samyang 35mm is 77mm front thread, is it worth getting 82mm filters?

>I've been looking at this mattebox for a while, it seems really solid and VK has just confirmed it, the only reason I turned it down is cause I'd rather get a swivel one

Cinematics can also swivel if you don't notice :-)
Pull this red thing and you can turn it :-)

>VK, what's your solution on4x4 filters, which did you get and where from if you don't mind me asking?

Don't have any idea yet.
For some time plan to use 82mm filters with all lenses converted to 82mm by rings.

I've been looking at this mattebox for a while, it seems really solid and VK has just confirmed it, the only reason I turned it down is cause I'd rather get a swivel one like this http://cgi.ebay.com/TRUSMT-DSLR-Matte-box-flag-CF-D100MB2-CF-/270790308628?pt=US_Camera_Camcorder_Accessory_Bundles&hash=item3f0c5c3314
or this which seems even better but is 200$ more

I'll probably go with the trusMT one as I'm falling a bit short on doe

I got it from same seller.

Group buy won't work for matteboxes I think :-)
You can ask him for some small discount if you want, don't know if this will work.

I don't know if you have seen that,

I have been looking at this matte box for some time but waited to get some feedback. I don't know if contacting the seller to get a type of group buy would be interesting for him. When you imagine if you buy 50 the price is $ 260 !!!!!!!!!!!

Vitaliy_Kiselev

Yeah. I had been really surprised as in your hands it feels even better than in photos. Rare case.

One thing that I want improved a little is filter holders.
Something up ot Shoot35 standards.

May be also using magnets to hold it in closed state like in Cinevete stuff :-)

This looks great and very high quality made ...

Howdy, Stranger!
