Anyone know of a super lightweight and cheap ND holder?

[Stephen Pruitt]

Hi all. . .

I've got two matteboxes for my REDs. Don't want want of those. I'm looking for something really small and lightweight to hold my 4" x 5.65" ND filters. Any thoughts? And tape won't work. I'm sure that will mess up the surface of my hot mirrored NDs.

Thanks.

A used (E-Bay) clip-on/LW Chrosziel?

Cokin Z-Pro will hold 4x5.6 filters http://www.cokin.com/ico15/ico15-haut.html?=#z

 

[Birns and Sawyer]

Birns makes a very lightweigh mattebox that clamps on to the lens and holds 2 filters without trays:

That seems like it might be what you're asking for? Weighs only a few ounces. I think you could even remove the shade if you wanted.

How much is the Birns mattebox? I can find it on the website.

I like that Z-Pro. . . and how much is the Birns mattebox? Looking at the Z-Pro, there is a mattebox that goes with that system, as well, for about $600.

We're currently experiencing problems with our site, but I can send a price to anyone interested, just send a PM.

Has anyone here actually used this Birns and Sawyer mattebox? Cokin apparently makes something very similar for almost exactly the same price. I'm looking for something that will last, but also is very lightweight.

Thanks.
