NiSi C5 Matte Box Kit

The NiSi C5 Matte Box Cinema Kit is a lightweight matte box built from aluminium, composite plastic and carbon fibre for cinematography. It accepts 4x4 and 4x5.65 filters up to 4 mm thick and provides up to 9 stops of neutral density. A clamp-on design with adapter rings fits 95 mm cinema lenses and threaded lenses up to 82 mm without requiring rails.

Before ordering check lens compatibility

Verify that your lens front diameter is either 95 mm for cinema barrels or 82 mm or smaller for filter threads so the supplied adapter rings will clamp securely. Ensure you are using 4 mm thick 4x4 or 4x5.65 filters because the trays are sized for that depth. Confirm that your widest focal length is no wider than 15 mm full-frame equivalent to avoid vignetting with the deep filter tray.

Sustained use on set

The carbon fibre top flag and deep filter tray block stray light consistently during long takes, while the composite construction resists heat buildup under continuous lighting. Clamp mounting remains secure without rail flex during extended handheld or gimbal operation. Filter trays slide smoothly for repeated changes across a full shooting day.

Questions about this item

What comes in the NiSi Cinema C5 Matte Box Cinema Kit and what must be purchased separately?

The kit includes the C5 matte box, clamp-on adapter rings for 95mm cinema lenses and filter threads up to 82mm, a carbon fibre top flag, and filter trays for 4x4 and 4x5.65 filters. Filters themselves are sold separately.

Which version or capacity of the C5 Matte Box should I choose?

The C5 Matte Box is offered as a single Cinema Kit configuration. It supports both 4x4 and 4x5.65 filter formats and accepts lenses with 95mm front diameters or filter threads up to 82mm, so no other version needs selecting.

What does the 15mm no-vignetting claim mean when I mount this on my camera?

On a full-frame sensor, you can use lenses as wide as 15mm without the matte box or its filter trays intruding into the corners of the image.
