  • Any suggestions for 82 mm filters

    What’s the official word on the 82mm filters
    for the HVX200…

    Presently I have a Vocus Matte Box with 4×4’s on my GY-DV5000
    Lovit’ !
    However the matte Box is not interchangable as the HVX200 has a wider angle.
    But it could take 82mm filters……………………

    After Shooting the HVX200 for a few days now
    I would appear that the wide angle is in fact pretty wide and I may not
    need to go the additional wide angle (centery Optic) adapter.. meaning no expensive Matte box….
    However, I have notice in general the Camera shoots alittle darker, this is fine so far I am still liking it (maybe even alot).

    but I have a couple of concerns
    1) If I put a ND Grad (2stop) in that 82mm screw on, is It just to close to the camera optics, will it cause problems ?
    2) if so is there a filter holder sunshade available yet ? (as I’m hopin’ to not have to buy the new Vocus/C.O.Wide Angle combo)

    I want to use a True Cir. polar, NG Grad, and a couple of Color grads…

    Anyone have some feed back or the opportunity to play around with any of these ?

    Thanks in advance.
