Lens Shader instead of matte box

[orfeas76]

made out of carton.
Next week I'll try making an aluminum one. (Bendable perhaps, so it can accommodate more lenses)
I really don't need filters so a matte box would be an overkill.
A simple shader though is necessary in many situations.

Hey man, Not sure if you had seen this option before, but I've snagged one and It's nice for what it is.

It's all plastic, but it's also like $14 dollars.

Talk to me more about the rest of your rig though?

It's looks really nice, I like that cage.

yeah, I saw that one but I wanted to hang it from the upper rods. (no space underneath). Also, it leaves light coming in through the corners. Finally I want it away from the lens, so I can change frequently
The cage is the Lanparte one with the dp6 monitor

That Lanparte stuff is very nicely made. Good bang for the buck.
