Rated 5 out of 5

UMB-1 is epic

The build quality is fantastic and the filter holders are very well built. A tad heavier than I thought but it’s incredibly customizable based on how you need to rig it.

Just what I needed

Been using neoprene donuts and while fine for cine lenses they're not great on still photography lenses that have a moving front element. Works great and well made. Currently using it with a Movcam Mattebox but will likely buy a Wooden Camera Mattebox soon - better design.

An optional third stage can be added for even greater versatility. Each filter stage is equipped with individual tray catchers, ensuring secure and efficient operation.

Crafted with a 143mm native diameter opening, the UMB-1 is compatible with a wide range of lenses.

These reduction rings feature quick-snap design and specially designed tabs, making lens transitions swift and maintaining compatibility with all 3rd party 114mm threaded bellows.
