Also, I'm still getting a few emails or conversations with people mistaking this mattebox with the sideload version. Here is the vimeo link where Mitch explains the difference between the two versions of the matte box:

Hi Gabriel,

Sorry, I just can't tell for sure from the pictures, but it appears that this has one stage and it is a top load stage.

The configuration spoken about by Mitch in the video and listed above includes a front rotating and a rear top load stage.

I could be completely wrong in my observation, would you please clarify how many stages are included in your kit.

Thank you sir.

Steve

Hi Stephen, It's the same matte box as Mitch talks about in the vimeo. The front is side load, the rear is top load. Look closely at this one picture, you can see the side load near the front and the top load knob a stage behind it.

 
Hi Gabriel,

Thank you, I edited my post after watching the video again as I was able to see it that time around. It is a lot less obvious than on the MB-20 :-)

I guess you saw my post in the five minutes it took to figure it out :-)

Sorry for any confusion.

Cheers,

Steve

:) Cheers back Stephen,

Yes, I saw your question within mere minutes as I subscribed to the thread and immediately started with a response, only to find out once I replied, your initial question had been changed. LOL

But I thought it was a good question, as you wouldn't believe how many emails I've received about people thinking I am selling a side load and not knowing that the top load exists...

I actually forgot at first when you first asked the question if the top load was in front or the second stage and had to look at the pics above again to remember. LOL

I thought your question might clear up the question, so I stickied it over at bmcuser thread as well. Ironically, it also triggered me to find out how to upload the youtube video of Mitch explaining the matte box differences in the actual ebay listing via html. So I owe you a big thank you as well.

Regards,

Gabriel
