The Tiffen Multi Rota Tray Variable Neutral Density Kit is a single geared rotating tray for matte box use that simulates a variable ND thru included rotating 138mm and fixed 4 × 5.65-inch circular polarizer filters. Key features include:
6mm Arri R2-standard 4 × 5.65-inch filter tray
Rotating 138mm circular polarizer filter
Fixed 4 × 5.65-inch circular polarizer filter
Three-in-One: Variable ND, Polarizer & Warm/Cool FX
Rotating Tray. The Tiffen Multi Rota Tray Variable Neutral Density Kit’s single-geared rotating tray lets you simultaneously use and rotate the included geared 138mm circular polarizer filter and fixed 4 × 5.65-inch circular polarizer filter.
Three Filter-Effect Combinations. This kit gives you three filter-effect combinations. You can use the 138mm CP filter on its own, or you can add the fixed 4 × 5.65-inch CP filter for up to six stops of variable neutral density. Additionally, depending on the direction the tray and 4 × 5.65-inch CP filter are facing, it can also produce a warming / cooling effect.
Versatility. The 6mm Arri R2-standard 4 × 5.65-inch tray is ideal for matte boxes without a rotating filter stage and cases in which a non-rotating stage requires a secondary rotating filter stage. The tray’s geared wheel gives you precision control either by hand or with a follow focus’s 0.8 MOD (32 pitch) gear wheel, and tray engravings allow easily recreate-able filtration.
