The SmallRig Mini Matte Box Pro (3680) shares the same design as the original model, but it comes with a slightly larger package of accessories and a revised flag system.

The filter tray system seems to be very well-made. These matte boxes can simultaneously accommodate one circular filter and up to two rectangular filters (4×5.65” or 4×4”). SmallRig offers several adapter rings for lenses ranging from 52 to 86mm. Like the original Mini Matte Box, the Pro and Lite versions can be directly mounted on lenses with a front diameter of up to 95mm.

The recently-released SmallRig Mini Matte Box Pro and Lite aren’t really “new” products. Directly competing with the popular Tilta Mini Matte Box, this product features an overall well-thought-out design and an extremely accessible price of $99. Last year, we covered the release of the original SmallRig Mini Matte Box. They are now available for $139 and $69 respectively.

While the Pro version features an upgraded flag system, the Lite model aims to keep weight and size to a minimum. The SmallRig Mini Matte Box Pro and Mini Matte Box Lite are based on the original Mini Matte Box design. By Francesco Andreola January 14 th, 2022
