Brook Aitken Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 Does the Z-1 work well with this Formatt 4x4 matte box? Will is cover 16x9 and does anyone have it and have any opinions to offer? -here is a link http://www.2filter.com/prices/products/format44.html -Brook Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brook Aitken Posted September 5, 2005 Author Share Posted September 5, 2005 I guess I can answer my own question if anyone is interested. I bought it and yes it works great. It clears the mic just fine. Adding filters you have to wither use the rotating and spin it 180 deg. or take the box off to add a filter. No biggie. Pretty god matte box for the coin. -BA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Phil Rhodes Posted September 6, 2005 Premium Member Share Posted September 6, 2005 Hi, Anyway, it's not a case of it covering 16:9, it's a case of it covering the lens you want to use. I know those matteboxes well and they won't cover big wide angle broadcast zooms in any aspect ratio. Phil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
