totally agree with you ! The products are epic, but also how Adam introduces them is epic! Pretty amazing! I would love to hang out with Adam to learn... Would be awesome to be the bestboy Peter of the BESTBOY ADAM :D

This review was done in 2021! I'm getting in to filming now after years of still photography and having to land into this priceless information about Tilta was the best thing. My dilemma was to choose between small rig or Tilta ! From this comprehensive review no doubt I'm ordering Tilta Mirage matte box

Nice video! And Where can I buy these filters?

Absolutely love the information you pass on in you channel. Thanks so much!

Good review. Understood every aspect of this new system, as opposed to some other reviews I've seen. 👍

7:20 the 6K Pro dying in the shot is hilarious

Thank you for the detail and effort I know it took to make this video! Brilliant information

9:24 also eliminating camera shake that would otherwise occur from manually adjusting the VND! Brilliant!

As always!! great review on the tilta mirage matte box!! just waiting for my orders to come!

I'm definitely going to be using your trick of slapping a ring on the variable ND!!! Wow. The possibilities

Your video content is great and helpful you deserve need more recognition

An absolutely brilliant review along with a ton of priceless information. Thank you and stay safe.

This is one of those accessories, that I don't need, but it is such a good device that I want to buy it anyway to, at least, support the innovation :) Thank you for this review!

Excellent review. You certainly know your stuff. Thankyou.

Crazy good video!!! Thx for this!

Tilta should sponsor you. Your video reviews are awesome!

Thx! I just come back from Kazakhstan 🇰🇿nuclear area shooting. So cool that you inform me about it! Cheers 🥂 dude!

GREAT REVIEW! Thanks! and happy shooting out there!

Hi, thanks for your very interesting review. To avoid too much color shift with VNDs, I use a Kase Clip ND8 filter and when I use a VND, it limits a lot the color shift and also the light reflection because I don't use the VND to its maximum. The X pattern is also significantly reduced with my Sony FE 20mm and 24mm lenses. I haven't found a better solution at the moment, other than using ND filters alone. It's the same for videos, now I use a Kase Mist (Dream) Clip In filter in front of the Sony sensor (equivalent between 1/8 and 1/4 Polar pro). I get a really nice result.

Adam, you are the hack ninja!

Thats amazing! Please make a Video about the setup of your pictor Zooms on the RS2. Absolute Crazy but smooth build. Amazing to see

It's an excellent review of the Tilta Mirage Mattebox. In addition to that, may I ask if you are using the Siriu anamorphic lens on an MFT body? I'm quite amazed at how this individual managed to use the Siriu anamorphic lens on the 6K Pro camera.

You're a gun. Cheers bro. As usual comprehensive. Thanks for taking the time to inform us all. We appreciate you. I think I am going to get this matte box now!

Man these tilta guys are really going all in with camera accessories.

Dobre 👍 fajna recenzja, choc wedlug mnie ten ND ma spory shift gdyz kolor w domu i na ogrodzie znaczaco sie roznia, w domu jest cieply na zewnatrz troche jak z szeregowca Rayana 😀 ale ogolnie robisz najlepsze i najbardziej merytoryczne video jesli chodzi o akcesoria Tilta 👍 super i czekam na nastepne 😀

Fabulous. Thanks so much for your explanation

Was waiting for this an a Kenyan filmmaker who have learnt alot from you

Thanks for awesome review! Using Polarpro basecamp with Nucleus M for CP with Float only 4 month and now this dream matte box!! I must consider this when weight issue comes up for my gimbal.

Excellent review. Keep up the good work!

I can see a pretty clear magenta shift on the ND, I'd be afraid it could be too pronounced to grade out unfortunately.

Love your Videos!

Nice! THX for sharing Your solution!

Can i have a CPL on my lens and then mount the matte box over that CPL?

Thank for the super useful review and video!

The only thing I don’t like about it is that the adapters for large format filters just clamp onto the front. Same as the mini matte box they make, which puts it right in glare and streakville. Wish they had put it into the back…. I am not selling my expensive filters. This is a nice box tho. And I will pick one up. I hope the Vaxis filters are good because I’ve found most of their glass products to suck.

awesome post！😃

Great video! I like your honest take!

Hi Adam and family! Good to see you are well! I often think that Tilta are the 'pro' version of the things you make yourself. You seem to have a similar ethos to one another. I feel like you could do consulting work for them! It's so nice to be able to have a variable ND on a control like that. I got the Weeble S transmission package, and whilst I love being able to use my iPhone on the gimbal to give me more control and angle options, unfortunately I cannot use the follow focus motor function as my lenses are fly-by-wire micro four thirds. Maybe someday I will be able to afford a speedbooster and EF glass!

Thanks for this presentation ! The problem with variable NDs is that since it's a couple a polarizers, it changes the light polarisarion, so light reflection, when rotated in capture. Do you know it the whole variable ND could be turned to keep control of the polarization ?

Loved the review! Please keep reviewing camera gear, this helps by buying decisions, :)

Thanks Adam :) does the filter cut IR ? Can I use it in conjunction with the Laowa 12mm zero D ?

Impressively neat walkthrough!

Hey Adam, what app are you using to monitor your footage on that smartphone?

I want to mount it on my cinema lens kit all the lenses are 77mm but I don’t want to screw the adapter on a new lens every time I swap lenses, is there an adapter without a thread that can go directly on a 77mm lens and into the matte box no screwing required?? Anyone can help me out would be appreciated!

Great video Adam, I wonder if it’s possible to also still use screw-in filters with this setup. It was possible with Tiltas Mini Matte Box to use Screw in Filters on the lens even when using the step-up rings .With this new Step-up ring design I’m not sure if that would still work. Could you please check?

And what about the quality of the filter? Is there cross vignetting, color shift, and blurring? Many filters are guilty of this. We want to see tests to be sure of the purchase, Adam. Thanks for video!

I'm a bit sceptical myself, i know other companies are doing similar things like tilta are, but for now I'm just sticking to my N.D 0.3 glass, polarizer and Pro mist filters.

Image being able to use a VND instead of ISO for native auto-exposure on your camera! If Tilta can work out how to control the motorised VND using the camera's exposure value, so it maintains consistent exposure by increasing or decreases the ND, that would be INSANE!

Extremely good !!! Could you put diopters ? For anamorphic!!!!

Great work, as always!

the only thing about VND systems like this is that they dont allow you to put your light waves in phase by rotating the whole filter.

Go ABB … Always Great reviews

fantastic info & video. Thanks so much for that! Please share with us the supporting system for your glidecam. I am searching something like this for my DJI Ronin RS2. Very interesting

why didn't they put some side flag to control the light. Its as if they have thought about everything except some obvious thing. I can understand it might be too heavy for a front lenses but as they supply the rail attachment it not a problem.

Unrelated to this video but I think you should try doing an experimental rig where you attempt to built out a DJI RS2 into a poor man's Ronin 4D. I've been trying to build mine into a similar form factor for a while now and I'd be interested to see what you come up with

Hey, what gimbal are you using for the BMPCC in this video? I have the Moza Air 2 and I’ve NEVER been able to get it to balance. Ever.

Shame they havent thought it completely through. If you use the vND, you cant use another one of the new drop in effects filters because the matte box only has one slot. would gladly have taken 5mm more depth to put a second filter, like a pro mist, into the matte box. of course, depending on the lens you can use a screw on type one and than attach the matte box onto it, or fall back to the big and heavy 4x5.65 ones, but a second slot would have been easier/cheaper/lighter.

What step up ring did you use on the laowa 7.5 mm? I'm afraid to get vignette when using my 49mm to 52mm step-up ring and then add another one. Thanks for answering!

Hello Adam, i love your videos and i am always impressed how you Setup your gimbal with such payload like the BMPCC 6k with the heavy DZO Zoom Lenses with all the accessories. It there a possibility to get a setup video how you do it? I am always struggling how to set up the weight in a way that the arms don't get blocked.

Can you do a video over your setup? I have a BMPCC 4k and my motor at times tends to struggle but yours seems smooth as butter

If ur talking about the nucleus motor use a higher voltage rather than the 5v micro usb port it comes with. 12v from V-mount Battery shouldn't be good enough ( use a Dtap to Micro ubs with higher voltage than 5v)

I love your Videos so much

Excellent review!

tysm, been looking for a box that doesn't suck like smallrig's does

Question: does the VND works good on bmpcc6k meaning in color, do it not have any Infrared problems in the blacks/shadows? I used to use IRnd Filters on my bmpcc6k and wondering is it built in or do you not see that problem in the VND

Just love you channel

Hey Adam… can you think of a solution for 4x4 filters… I have some classic 85’s and grads I’d love to use with my Mirage

Does the variable ND have IR Cut also?

Can you go into low mode with that BMPCC6k and Pictor lens on the float/ Ronin RS2? Thanks and I love your content.

Hey Adam quick question. Can we add & Stack Vaxis 95mm circular mist or other fx filters on top of Circular VND.. ?

My back would love to know what that vest and arm is called? Looks awesome with the Ronin on.

Have you noticed any barrel vignetting when using the stack adapter to mount two 95mm circular filters? I use the Sony S3/A1 and the GM 24-70 as my main run and gun and notice anything wider than 30mm I get heavy vignetting around the corner edges, of course the “solution” is to just zoom to 35mm and ignore it, but is that right? Should you see anything or did I mount it wrong lol

Yes. Thank You !

Thanks for the review! What's the widest (full frame) angle the matte box will work with?

Is that Blackmagic 6k pro? Would you please share some details about your setup? I am trying to get the tilta and balance everything on my ronin rs - a have an ssd drive at the top, and need to add a microphone as well - was considering rode wireless go... I see you also have a cage here with a massive dzo. Do you think I could also get tilta cage for my 6 k pro and it would handle everything together? I am going to use id with a dummy battery and a cable to powerbank in my pocket.

Where can you buy Vaxis filters in Poland? Have you ordered them directly? Or you got them for the review from Tilta or Vaxis?

Can you make a video about your set up please? I also have the Bmpcc 6k pro with pictor zoom lenses. But I have the zhiyun crane 3s which seems to have some issues with vibration. How well does DJI RS 2 work with your set up?

Thanks for the useful information. I have a sel1224g. sel1224g has no filter groove so I can't use ND filters. Have you verified if this mattebox can be used with sel1224g?

Nice work on the review I'd love to see a build guide for the equipment used in this video!, awesome rig and I've been looking for the best setups for the 6k and I just get mixed reviews but nuts that you've got this balanced on the RS2 is there much fiddling around?

The wireless motor actually drains the 14500 battery even when it is switched off - Tilta recommends taking out the battery whenever you don’t use the motor. They said they’re trying to fix this "quirk" with a software update in the future. What a disappointment :(

Do you know what protocol the Tilta Nucleus Nano Adapter is using? I want to create an AUto Focus for manual cine lenses using a Raspberry Pi with a stereo camera

Wonderful but would've love to see more direct VND color reproduction quality vs PolarPro Basecamp. Buying it anyway as I struggle between 5-7 stops during midday which means jumping from 2-5 VND to 6-9 VND back and forth. Also ND's are dirt cheap on this mattebox vs $200 each for PP basecamp. BUT we need in-depth comparison between all as I already own the PP basecamp and it might end up being exclusive to 200-600mm G lens, assuming this doesn't fit it.

In addition to the VND, can you stack other filters on top?

Awesome. I was about to pull the trigger on a NiSi C5, but this looks to be more convenient with the wireless ND controller, and the option to mount the matte box on rails. I heard NiSi Vari ND true color is the best, but it's also only 5 stops. How _off_ is the Tilta ND color shift?

Thanx for this review!

Great stuff Adam, Does the 3D focus system work better below the camera like you rigged it?

how do you powering bmpcc? i dont see any power cable

Well done video! What is the hardware you’re using to mount a rail on top of your cage for the follow focus?

Adam, great content as always! Quick question - jesteś Polakiem? :D

9:56 wow!

Thanks for making the review. What's the biggest lens diameter the matte box can take? Since filters are stuck at 95mm I guess for majority of cinema lenses that are over 100mm in diameter (which is more common) wouldn't be able to be used unfortunately then. So it's a matte box targeted for lower end lens market.

Thx for the review. Got my Mirage yesterday. One question regarding the vND filter. Mine is quite noisy when I rotate it manually. I'm afraid I won't be able to use with a on-cam microphone. Is this normal or have I got a broken unit? Thx

Are you comfortable mounting it on that Leica R directly or do you use the rod system for those lenses? And does the variNd show any colour shift to you? Thanks for the great reviews.

hey what about lenses with front diameter more than 95mm?

Great review man! So when shooting on wider lenses, how many max stops of ND can you get before the X ring shows up? Maybe compared to the polar pros 2-5 and 6-9..for wider lens is it better to go with the polar pro or the tilta?

I think one solution is to get a 4x4 square ND filter, a 3 stop would be enough so that you don't have to turn it too much.

Well done and thank you for your fabulous work BestBoy Adam ;) In your opinion, is it possible to place the Ronin RS2 Pro folowfocus motor on the Nucleus Nano Motor adapter supplied in the MB-T16-A kit to control the variable ND? Do the dimensions and notches of the wheel allow it? Thanks to you
