I’ve had some time to work with the Kamerar MAX-1 Matte box over the past several weeks. Check out the video below for my findings. In short, this is a great matte box for those looking for an affordable first matte box.
What This Matte Box Is Good For
- Blocking unwanted light.
- Protecting your lens.
- Single Filter use.
- Non-rotating filters (ND, protective filter etc).
- Aesthetics of a mattebox without the large expense of a professional mattebox.
- Rod base rig use.
What This Matte Box Is Not Good For
- Dual filter use.
- Rotating filter use.
- Clip-on use.
