This 4 x 5.65" SmallRig Cine ND Filter 4x5.65 6-Stopfrom SmallRig Cine ND Filter 4x5.65 6-Stopis an ND1.8 neutral density filter that produces a 6 f-stop exposure reduction, making it possible to reduce shutter speed for added blur when shooting still images, or for finer control over frame rate when shooting video. In addition, shooting at a wider aperture to reduce depth of field helps isolate the image subject from the background. This filter is compatible with any 4 x 5.65" matte box or filter holder that has a filter slot for 4mm-thick filters.

Made with high-clarity, high-transmission B270 optical glass, this filter is precisely ground and polished for use with lenses of various focal lengths without compromising image sharpness. The filter is coated on both sides with multilayer nano-coating to reduce lens flare and optimize light transmission. The coatings are also mildewproof and water resistant, toughened to prevent stains, and easy to clean, making the filter ideal for use in harsh environments.

Q: 1. This appears to be a 95mm VND, how does that work with a 114mm Revo Arcane?

A: The SmallRig VND Filter Set for Star-Trail and Revo-Arcane Matte Boxes (B&H# SM3651) is a VND inside of a frame that holds it and contains a manually operated rotating mechanism that may be used to adjust the strength of the VND. It slides into the filter frame slot of the SmallRig Revo-Arcane Lightweight Multifunctional Modular Matte Box Basic Bundle (114mm Back) (B&H# SM3641).

Q: 2. I have a 6x6 Scrim Jim how do I tell if it is the old or new version? And will this fit if I have the old version?

A: Great question, William. The old version of Scrim Jim used 3/4" thick framing and the frames connected to each other using a tension fit. The new version (Scrim Jim Cine) uses a thicker 1" frame and connects using a positive locking system. The new system also has corners that are NOT built into the frame, like they were in the original version. The sizing of diffusion silks are not the same for the new version, as we standardized the sizing to what is common in the industry for the Scrim Jim Cine lineup.

Q: 3. does this already come with the frame or I have to purchase the frame separately?

A: You will need to purchase the frame separately.

Q: 4. Does it come with frame?

A: This is the fabric only. The frame is sold separately. That would be the Westcott Scrim Jim Cine Frame Set (8 x 8'), BH # WE1834 https://bhpho.to/3ztCEZK

Q: 5. Are the filters IRND?

A: SmallRig VND Filter Set for Star-Trail and Revo-Arcane Matte Boxes is not an IRND filter. It's a set of two CPL filters that create a singular variable neutral density filter with 1 to 8 stops of light control.

Q: 6. will this work in an arri lmb25 4x5.65 tray?

A: A majority of third party filter trays have a unique design to fit their respective matte boxes. This SmallRig VND Filter Set is meant to be used with the Star-Trail and Revo-Arcane Matte Boxes and will not work with ARRI Lightweight Matte Boxes.

Q: 7. Is it possible to use different filters that are not from this setup?

A: Only the included filters are compatible with the SmallRig VND Filter Set for Star-Trail and Revo-Arcane Matte Boxes.

Q: 8. I don't understand the amount of stops reduced, is it variable from 1 to 1/4?

A: This fabric is not variable, it reduces 1.25 stops of light.

Q: 9. Hi! Can this be used without a frame - can I hang with clamps? Thank you!

A: The fabric would be best used with the frame as it has Velcro along the edges keeping it stretched flat to its appropriate size. I would be careful to not damage the fabric when hanging it in another way but you can certainly use it however you would like.

Q: 10. Others have asked, but it hasn't been clearly answered. I have the older Scrim Jim kit (tension fit, velcro). Will this fabric fit my frame?

A: No. The following unit is designed and made for the 6 x 6' Scrim Jim Cine frames only.
