Hugo Bordes –
I’ve had the Misfit Atom for almost a year now and it’s now one of the most essential pieces of gear in my kit.
I simply love the fact that I don’t need rods, brackets, swing- away arms etc and still have a completely functional matte box for my productions. I screw it on and off my Zeiss and Canon lenses in seconds. It’s actually made me quite lazy and I now need a solid excuse to use the old conventional Matte Boxes. Even for studio work! (not just gimbal)
Definitely a game changer for my workflow!
Side note: I recently took it overseas and was worried that the silicon frame would get out of shape if compressed in a suitcase for 15 hours but the thing just popped right back into shape once I took it out of the bag. I just love this thing!

This is something I don’t leave home without. A must have for all my gimbal shoots. At times I even choose this over my Misfit for weight and low profile. Super simple and doesn’t fail. Love how easy it is to pack and travel with as well.

Wherever I go, my Misfit Atom goes. This is one of the best matte boxes I’ve owned/used. I do own a VIV (which is great), but for when I’m using a MoVI or Ronin, I attach the Misfit Atom. It’s extremely lightweight and compact. If I’m doing a lot of run and gun work, this is typically the matte box I run with. I’ve added the 82mm and 77mm donuts for my L-series glass, and the 100mm for my Schneider Xenon FF primes. This has been a great addition to my kit and I’m never on set without it. If you’re starting out or are a seasoned cinematographer, there isn’t a better option in my opinion.
