Adorama pretends to care but they don't. It's all automated inhuman bs just like the rest of the world. Stick with b&h

While my floppy works just fine, my recent experience with adorama wasn't the best in general. I started ordering from them more regularly this year and spent arpund $6000 over the course of 6 months or so. I ordered $2000 worth of grip equipment on my adorama credit card and had a whopping shipping cost of $400+. The very next week I receive a text from adorama offering me free shipping on any items over $50. I was super frustrated having just spent $400 in shipping the week prior. They offered me a $25 discount when I expressed my dissatisfaction. What an insult. I'll also add that with every large order, I received a copy and paste message from a guy named Larry thanking me and letting me know he would be my personal shopping assistant or some funny title like that. Well when all this happened Larry just deferred me to someone else, and with a lot of between all these departments, it wasn't worth the hassle to eventually get a $75 discount. Adorama pretends to care but they don't.

About Matthews 48x48" Floppy Cutter with Bottom Hinge, Black Textile

Under the banner of professional-grade tools, the 48x48" Floppy Cutter with Bottom Hinge, crafted from Black Textile, stands as a testament to durability and versatility. This newly designed, sturdy cutter frame boasts a 90-degree flag and cutter configuration, enabling precise positioning over set walls or the creation of a light-controlling box using multiple units.

Unlike its predecessors, this innovative design features three square corners, enhancing its functionality and adaptability in various settings. The 48x48" frames have been streamlined by removing the mouse ears, resulting in a more squared-off, sleek design.

As a fundamental tool in light management, this high-quality floppy cutter is covered with a solid cloth material and equipped with mounting pins. It is designed to control both natural and artificial light, safeguarding the camera lens from flares and managing spill light from various sources. It also serves to prevent light from reaching specific areas on the set, ensuring optimal lighting conditions for your projects.

This reliable tool is known as a Flag for sizes up to 24" x 36". For larger or more irregular sizes, it is referred to as a Cutter. The Floppy Cutter is a unique variant that features an extra layer of material sewn to one edge, held in place with a Hook and Loop fastener. When needed, this Flag or Cutter can expand to twice its original size, offering increased coverage and flexibility.

The product code with a (B) denotes a Bottom Hinge, while a (T) signifies a Top Hinge. All Matthews Scrims and Flags, including this 48x48" Floppy Cutter, are bordered with heavy-duty, color-coded webbing, reinforcing their durability and ease of identification. This professional-grade tool is a testament to the blend of design innovation and practical functionality, making it an essential addition to your toolkit.
