Dual Filters Finally
Pretty nice to finally have dual filter capability. It adds a bit of bulk compared to the original but it’s worth it when flexibility is required. In my case I pair it with the 1/8 Mist and VND. The only grip is the latch isn’t as quick to remove AA’s compared to stage 2. The entire matte box has to be dismounted from the lens to remove the front hood portion.

Works as described but has a larger profile
This adapter works as described but it's overall profile is considerably bigger than the original matte box system. One of the key benefits of the Polar Pro system is it's slim and lightweight form factor. While this adapter works exactly as described, I don't understand why it was made larger than the original.
