I'm sure there are many of you out there that have 77mm filters that you would like to have the opportunity to use in a matte box when need be. I have a large collection of 77s that sit idle when Matte box is in use. Recently I received Hoya ProNDs as they are supposed to have a rather neutral color throughout the higher densities. Not quite TrueND but approaching that league. They only come in screw on filters at the moment. But for some things I feel a matte box is the best option to get the best contrast.
So here is a solution that works in my O-Box. It's from Lock Circle and it's a plate that allows you to screw on your 77 then drop it into a 4x5.65 tray like any other filter. What I wasn't sure about was whether I would then also be able to get a second 4x5.65 tray in the box. The answer is yes. That was great news. Here is the link
