Chrosziel HDV Mattebox & Sunshade for Canon XL H1
December 23, 2005
Burbank, CA - 16x9 Inc. and Alfred Chrosziel introduce the HDV Mattebox Kit for 4x4/4x5.650 filters ($1625) and the 4x4 Clamp-On Sunshade System ($798) made to complement the Canon XL H1 HDV camcorder.
The new professional mattebox system's 16:9 housing covers both 16:9 and 4:3. Features include a filterstage for two filterholders (one 4x4 rotating and one 4x4/4x5.650 fixed), full-size French flag, 16:9 insert mask and 110-72mm screw-in adapter ring. The mattebox comes with center bracket and 1ightweight support rods designed to provide a secure mount. Chrosziel’s DV Follow Focus system can be added to provide the precise manual focus that’s critical when working in the HDV format. Employing a unique direct drive mechanism, the company says there is no lag or backlash.
For compact use, the Chrosziel 4x4 Clamp-on Sunshade System attaches directly to the front of the camera’s 20X lens. It includes a 16:9/4:3, housing, full-size French flag, filterstage for two filterholders (one rotating and one fixed), and a 104:72mm step-down ring. An optional center bracket and lightweight support system are also available.
