kado Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I know the usual step to cut down light is to add ND filters inside a mattebox. but would adding an ND filter between the taking lens and and anamorphic lens, (mine is an iscorama 54) be a big no no? im looking a the Hoya ProND filters but the biggest size available is 82mm. thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stuart Hooper Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I've been doing it behind an LA7200 no problem, only that I start vin getting a few millimetres sooner on the wide end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Small nd's are cheap, I'd buy one used and do a quality test side by side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
