Brass Monkey Business Card Holder

This a great minimalist card holder for the tech or business professional!

Easy to carry, durable and no monkey business. That is what I need from my reflector. 38 works perfectly for me when I shoot people whether it's a full length picture from a bit away or a close up crop. I just flip the dish between silver and white to get the bounce effect I need depending on distance and available sun light.

This is a well designed card holder.

very happy with the screen protector i ordered, also liked the surprize smile like a monkey with a banana card :D

This little monkey entertains little kids while I try to take a photo.

I still shoot film on occasion, and this helps tame down harsh colors. Good brass holder to keep from sticking to aluminum threads.

This has one serious flaw, but apart from that, it is simply the best solution to a filter system for serious photography. The concept of the filter vaults is brilliant, and the holder is superb. This is in a class by itself, and no other filter system comes close. Well worth the money. BUT it has one huge flaw, and that is the brass screw at the top that secures the holder to the lens adapter. The first one I got, this thing just snapped! The screw has a big head, and maybe it generates too much force on the thin body of the screw. Whatever the reason, mine broke, and I had to return it to B&H and get a new unit. I am now VERY careful handling this screw, but other than that, it seems to be working exceptionally well. Works with all the standard 100x100 and 150x100 filters, as long as they are 2mm thick. I highly recommend it, in spite of the one weakness. I hope Wine Country fixes this one weakness (maybe use a strong, steel screw instead of a brass screw?) I will give it 5 stars anyway, for the otherwise brilliantly executed product that comes very nicely packaged and presented.

After all the (deservedly) positive reviews this filter holder has got, I was looking forward to getting mine. Initially, though, the filter holder (with filters) kept falling off at the slightest touch, causing me much anguish and annoyance. Fortunately no broken filters.  The holder fits onto a separate adapter ring using three wedges.  Two fixed plastic ones that can be seen on the inside right of the image above (2 oclock and 4 oclock) and a third brass one (hidden in the image above) that is moved by pulling the spring-loaded brass knob at nine oclock.  As it transpired, the brass wedge on my unit was facing in the wrong direction; so, the filter holder although appearing to be attached to the adapter ring was not really - If I was an engineering type and/or more observant, Id have probably realised the problem immediately.  The solution is to loosen the brass screw attached to the brass wedge, turn the wedge 180 degrees, tighten the screw again and voila! Perfect!

I have purchased a number of these on a number of occaisions for negative sheets and Photographic prints. The little brass tag holder is useful too because you can identify contents.

This reflector holder has been very useful. I like the counter weight which is just enough to keep things balanced on a stand. The holder also came with a brass insert that allows it to be connected to 1/4 or 3/8 and I was able to use my extra tripod as a stand which freed up one of my taller light stands at a shoot. Quick and easy to adjust to any angle needed.
