A CRUCIAL PIECE OF CAMERA GEAR

As anyone who's dipped their toes into cinematography knows, there's a lot of gear involved in getting a great shot. Sure you can get something good without the perfect lens, the ideal tripod, the adequate camera body, and so on– but it's a lot more difficult. One of the most important pieces of camera gear that often gets forgotten is the matte box. In this video, we look at what a matte box is and why you probably need it.

WHAT IS A MATTE BOX?

A matte box is a piece of camera equipment designed to control unwanted light and manage lens flare. It's a rectangular or square housing that attaches to the front of a camera lens. The matte box often includes adjustable, interchangeable filters and flags that can block light or alter its intensity.

DO I NEED A MATTE BOX?

If you're a professional cinematographer, you probably need a matte box. Here's why. A matte box can protect your image from optical artifacts and allow greater creative flexibility. By using a matte box, filmmakers can block harsh light or direct it away from the lens, ensuring clearer, more vibrant images.

Matte boxes also allow for the use of filters, such as ND filters, polarizers, or graduated filters. The ability to stack filters easily on a matte box offers significantly more versatility than if you're attaching them directly to the lens.

MATTE BOX TUTORIAL

Matte boxes come in different sizes to fit various lens diameters. Some matte boxes are designed for specific lens sizes or allow for quick adjustment with clamp rings.

Second, look for a matte box that offers a flexible filter tray system, especially if you plan to use multiple filters.

Third, a matte box can add significant weight to your rig, so consider how it will affect your balance and ease of movement. Look for one that is both sturdy and lightweight, especially if you’re shooting handheld or need to carry the gear for extended periods.

Matte boxes don't just make your camera rig look more fancy. They're crucial in getting a great image.
