NiSi Cinema C5 Matte Box Cinema Kit

The NiSi Cinema C5 Matte Box Cinema Kit is a lightweight clamp-on matte box designed for professional cinematography. It supports 4 x 4" and 4 x 5.65" filters, includes adapter rings for 67, 72, 77, and 82mm lenses, and comes with a True Color VND, True Color Rotating PL, FS ND16, and 1/8 Black Mist filter. Built from aluminium, composite plastic, and carbon fibre, it minimises glare, prevents vignetting, and is suited for use on gimbals, drones, and full-scale productions.

Durable lightweight construction

Made from aluminium, composite plastic, and carbon fibre, the C5 keeps weight down to just 350g while providing strength and protection. Its clamp-on design requires no rails, making it ideal for compact setups and fast-paced shoots.

Glare and vignetting control

The deep filter depth positions filters close to the lens, preventing vignetting even at 15mm on full frame. The adjustable carbon fibre top flag reduces glare from overhead light, while side slots reduce wind resistance for aerial or vehicle-mounted filming.
