Filmcity MB-600 Matte Box Upgrade

As promised a short video explaining what i have done to improve my Filmcity MB-600 matte box which came with my Filmcity FC-03 Rig.



Not the easiest DIY mod but for me defiantly worth doing as it is now rock solid and no longer has the fitment issues with the Canon 24-105L lens.

Basic requirements are:

A Filmcity MB-600 Matte box (obviously)
3mm Aluminium plate approx 150x150mm (6" x 6")
Some counter sunk bolts with nuts and washers to match
A jig saw with a metal cutting blade
Some Velcro to tidy the thing up
And a bit of time :)

Like i say its a bit fiddly but it was worth doing for me.

Hope you like this video and if you do click the like button and if you want to see more tips and mods like this press subscribe.
