Good for the most part
This matte box is an improvement over my older and smaller matte box.
I find the filter system to be more complex, which is good and bad for different reasons.
+ However, you get to mount two different 100x150mm filters, which on my older matte box cannot be done.
- Assembly time is greater, on my old matte box, there's only one slot which is fixed on the matte box.
The tightening knob squeaks and feels weird, so I'm not sure what's going on there.
On another positive note, I find the french flag to be very sturdy and more than adequate for keeping sun flares out.
Build quality is top notch with the exception of the filter trays. I find those a little flimsy.
Lastly, I appreciate the included carry case. It's sturdy and keeps the matte box protected.
