- In this Neewer Mini matte box review I will be looking at the PG002 Mini Matte box and covering its full feature set, what you get in the kit and my thoughts on this awesome little matte box too of course.
The neewer PG002 Mini Matte Box has to be one of the best Mini Matte boxes available right now for it's features, build quality and price, it's crazily cheap and don't forget my Neewer Discount code HAYES21 gets you 21% off worldwide.
The PG002 Matte box comes with a built-in French flag or barn door and four adaptor rings with 82mm, 77mm, 72mm and 67mm filter threads and depending on the kit you choose it will have either one or two filter trays supplied with it.
The kit I reviewed here was the two filter tray kit, which is the one I recommend. These trays take the industry standard 4 x 5.65 inch filters. so they will work with the vast majority of filters out there.

Great review 👏 looks like a handy bit of kit to have.
It certainly is 👍
Neewer got their moneys worth with this review. Well done!
If only I was getting paid for these, I could retire on my 90 foot yacht in Monaco then 😂😂😂
@@kieranhayesphotography So you do have a yacht, but just can't retire!
😄
@@leonfisher It's like a giant hole in the water soaking up money. Between that and the Lambo now I am finding it hard to save any serious money.
The Irish country roads are playing havoc with the car 😂😂😂
To answer my own Question you can use multiple filtertrays, I have 3 . The PROBLEM is that already owning many NISI and LEE 100/150mmm filters they do not fit ! the Neewer holder is slightly shorter so the filters wont fit !. Maybe forcing people to buy Neewer filters
Hi Gordon, I own 16 different 4 X 5.65" filters and only three of them are from Neewer and they all fit perfectly.
4 X 5.65 is the industry standard as I am sure you know and all of mine fit with no issue at all.
Are the filters you have 4 x 5.65 or are they 100mm X 150mm. The industry standard is 4 X 5.65"
Are the filters you have photography filters by any chance?
How many filter trays can be used at any one time ?
Hi Gordan, you can use two trays at a time, you can buy it in the dual and single tray kit.
I tried it with a screw on 82mm diffusion filters and the two trays and it worked perfectly.
I hope that helps 👍
it's almost identicle to the Smallrig, even the packaging.
Hi Gordon, they practically are identical and that happens a n awful lot now. Neewer are always cheaper though and generally they have a few tiny little extras in them also.
I was always a big SmallRig fan but Neewer just keep getting better and better now. I have loads of their products here now and not an issue with a single one of them.
I'd never make a purchase to increase peoples perception of professionalism.
I am not saying anyone should but it's just something I noticed.
Personally I find it a bit funny that you could be there with 15-20k worth of gear and years of experience and somebody thinks it's more of a pro shoot because you pop on a matte box.
Again that's possibly just me, as people find me very unimpressive on shoots, I am probably way too laid back for my own good.
@@kieranhayesphotography wear a tuxedo on your next shoot Kieran.😉
