ARRI LMB-4 (2 STAGE)

Filter Capacity: 2-stage design allowing the use of two 6.6" x 6.6" (6x6) push-through filter frames.
Weight: Approximately 500 g (1.1 lbs).
Lens Compatibility: Specifically designed to accommodate wide-angle lenses (such as Zeiss Ultra Primes) and large zooms (like Angenieux 24-290mm) featuring 156mm or 162mm front diameters.

Component Breakdown

4 Reduction Rings: Used to clip the matte box's large 156mm or 162mm rear diameter directly to the smaller front outer diameters of various cinema lenses without needing support rods.
Eyebrow (Top Flag): A carbon-fiber flag with slide-out wings for adjustable flare protection. It mounts toollessly to block overhead stray light and reduce ghosting.
6x6 Trays: Heavy-duty filter frames that securely hold 6x6 filters within the matte box stages. A dedicated tray catcher prevents filters from slipping or dropping when changing setups.

Professional Use & Best Practices

Gimbal/Steadicam Work: Because it mounts directly to the lens, it is extremely lightweight, making it ideal for fast-paced, gimbal, drone, or Steadicam shots.
Reflections: Stacked filters can cause ghosting; ensure filters are clean. Modernized variants of this line allow for subtle tilting and anti-reflection staging to eliminate unwanted ghosting.
Safety: When rigging to a vehicle or crane, always secure the matte box by looping a safety wire to the main frame's built-in securing loop.
