I primarily shoot with the Sony A7sII and the base of my rig is the Movcam cage and rail system.This is hands down the best budget matte box I've ever used. It feels sturdy- built mostly with metals and some high-grade plastics in select areas. The matte box glides right onto my rig's 15mm rods- buttery smooth. I also have the FOTGA DP3000 M3 matte box, which was ok for a cheapo unit, but it didn't work too well with my Movcam A7s rig (the slide adjust didn't go down low enough to line up my with lenses evenly). Not only is this box MILES better than the 3000 M3 model, the DP500 Mark III fits PERFECTLY with my Sony A7sII and Movcam cage & rail system. You can just feel the difference in quality when you hold it in your hands. I should have just bought the DP500 in the first place, but meh, at least I can use the 3000 M3 with my B cam. I also purchased this unit specifically for the 4x4 sized filter trays. I use the excellent Light Craft Workshop 4x4 Variable ND filters, which are pretty thick slabs of glass. This is the first budget matte box in which the trays fit my ND glass properly.Are there any cons to this matte box? We're about to head into nitpick territory... but speaking of the filter trays, I wish they were made of aluminium like the rest of the matte box's structure. Instead, they're made out of what appears to be a really nice high-grade plastic. Don't get me wrong- they're extremely durable and I'm fully confident that they'll function well in the long run, but the package would be pretty much perfect if they were constructed out of some sort of lightweight metal. Also, there's not much of a stop for the filter trays when you insert them so make sure you have them screwed in tight! There is some minimal friction holding them into place, but the trays could potentially fall through the bottom if left unscrewed, shattering any glass filters you might be using on the floor. These really are just nitpicks though and honestly don't take anything away from how awesome and functional this matte box truly is.Furthermore, I have communicated with the folks at Fotga in the past and they are extremely helpful and accommodating. They practice some of the best customer service I've ever dealt with.And have I mentioned how sexxxxxxxxxy this matte box makes my rig look??? That carbon fiber.... mmhmmmmm. If you're on the fence about this box, don't hesitate. GET ONE.
