Buy FOTGA DP3000 M3 DSLR swing away matte box Matte Box Kit with Universal Lens Donut Set for All Camera Rigs with 15mm Rod Systems at desertcart UK. Review: Very impressed. - This matte box is awesome. The build quality is excellent - a durable mixture of ABS and what feels like aluminium and everything is bolted together very firmly. The swing-away mechanism is smooth and locks shut with the twist of a little thumb screw. It has two 4x4 filter trays, one fixed, one rotatable (ideal for polarising filters or graduated filters for you arty types). The filter trays are plastic but very solid and slide in smoothly (giving a satisfying 'click' when they lock into place). It's height adjustable by about 2cm, making it compatible with most DSLRs and camcorders, and again, locks firmly into your desired position with the turn of two thumb screws. The overall weight is about 1 kg, which makes my NX70 a little front heavy, but those of you with larger cameras/rigs won't find this a problem. Actually the weight just helps it feel more solid and dependable and I think it would be hard to break something of this build quality, even in the clumsiest of hands (like mine). The top flag (French flag) and side flags are a good size, constructed from aluminium (I think) and attach easily. Their position/angle is fully adjustable and an Allen key is provided for this. It comes with four foam donuts of differing apertures for a snug seal against your camera's lens and these are easily interchanged. Overall it's hard to see how this product could be improved and I'm absolutely chuffed to bits with it. I would definitely recommend this matte box to beginners but I also think pro' and prosumers would find their light control needs met by this product. Postage was super fast too. It arrived all the way from Hong Kong in six days - and one of those days was Christmas Day!! Very impressive. Review: Fantastic first matte box that doesn't break the bank! - Absolutely fantastic matte box for the price, top and side flags are all aluminium with aluminium screws. The frame of the box itself is aluminium while the 'bellows' bit is plastic but does not seem inferior. The item arrived well packaged in bubble wrap with no bends or kinks in the flags as some people have described - that may be down to courier handling. There are some minor scuffs and scratches to the product but nothing major or very noticable. Included are two 15mm threaded female to female 20cm rods (I wasn't sure if these were going to arrive with the item). You also get two plastic filter trays (one rotatable) with aluminium tightening screws on the top and a selection of donuts. It loses one star due to three blue plastic M5 screws and a large blue plastic side screw which looks like a bicycle quick-release clamp (see picture). These are easily replaced for better ones though. The product picture shows a large round alloy blue side screw which is incorrect. Other than that, as a first matte box, I am more than happy with the quality. ## Features - Universal design for all camcorders and DSLRs and standard 15mm support rods, 60mm centre spacing - You can easily swing the mattebox without disturbing the camera of the tripod and rail system.You can open open on one side, applied in the photographic process frequent replacement lenses and filters, easily and conveniently - 2 dual-use filter trays, supporting a 4"x4" filter used. One filter tray is attached, another of the filter trays is rotatable, which will be useful when using a progressive ND filter - French flag/side flags: The flags offer an additional reduction in reflections and improve the quality of videos. The side flags are removable quickly. They can be attached / detached easily - The flags are securely attached to the parasol mattebox by means of a hinge mechanism. The side flags can be opened to the desired length using the small button provided on the flags ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00ENFEQ1W | | Best Sellers Rank | 18 in Matte Boxes | | Brand | FOTGA | | Colour | Black | | Customer Reviews | 3.9 3.9 out of 5 stars (144) | | Date First Available | 19 Aug. 2013 | | Focus type | Manual (English language not guaranteed) | | Guaranteed software updates until | unknown | | Item Weight | 1.4 kg | | Item model number | DP3024 | | Lens Fixed Focal Length | 15 Millimetres | | Max Focal Length | 15 Millimeters | | Min Focal Length | 15 Millimeters | | Package Dimensions L x W x H | 27.2 x 23.6 x 14.4 centimetres | | Package Weight | 1.4 Kilograms | | Part number | DP3024 | | Water Resistance Level | Not Water Resistant | ## Product Details - **Brand:** FOTGA - **Colour:** Black - **Compatible devices:** Camera - **Folded size:** 3.5 cm (h) - **Item weight:** 1.4 kg - **UPC:** 799975142685 ## Images ![FOTGA DP3000 M3 DSLR swing away matte box Matte Box Kit with Universal Lens Donut Set for All Camera Rigs with 15mm Rod Systems - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/610s+MXMn8L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very impressed. *by G***E on 30 December 2013* This matte box is awesome.

Sturdy, solid. Initial problem with it being too high for lens, but added some camvate brackets to lower extra 15mm rods ...... had no problems aligning it. 100mm ND filters fitted perfectly. Super value for under £100. ## Frequently Bought Together - FOTGA DP3000 M3 DSLR swing away matte box Matte Box Kit with Universal Lens Donut Set for All Camera Rigs with 15mm Rod Systems - SMALLRIG Universal Base Plate with 15mm Rod Rail Clamp, Mounting Baseplate for Sony A7 Series, for Canon/Nikon/Panasonic/Fujifilm/BMPCC, Both for Cameras & Cages -1674 - SMALLRIG 15mm Rod 12 Inch 2 PCS, Made of Aluminum Alloy, with M12 Inner Thread (12"/30cm) - 1053 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/49387685-fotga-dp3000-m3-dslr-swing-away-matte-box-matte-box](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/49387685-fotga-dp3000-m3-dslr-swing-away-matte-box-matte-box) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
