Rosco Fluorescent Lighting Sleeves/Tube Guards are a very reliable and cost-effective system for easy control of tough lighting scenarios- especially under fluorescents. In addition to the financial benefits of the sleeves, they protect against the potential disaster of glass shattering by containing the lamp within the end caps.

Rosco sleeves are constructed of a solid polycarbonate tube within which is held the specific filter. The choice of filters and combination of filters is endless - there are complete Roscolux, Cinegel or E-Colour color filter lines - something for every venue, every photographer, every cinematographer.

For T5 Lamps    Over 300 Colors Available    UL94HB Rated Polycarbonate    End Caps Protect From Shattered Glass    Easily Trimmed with Scissors

Available in sizes for T12, T8 and T5 fluorescent lamps

The T8 and T5 sizes contain a UV filter that minimizes fading

All standard sizes (2, 4, 5, and 8') are easily trimmed to accommodate any size lamp

Q: 1. Can this tripod hold Canon EOS7D with 70-200mm telephoto lens? Is a reducer required for EOS7D with this tripod for the included BA-113 Ball Head? Thank you.

A: This tripods weight capacity is more than sufficient for holding your Canon EOS 7D and a 70-200mm f2.8 lens. Both the camera and lens tripod collar (if applicable) have a standard sized 1/4-20 tripod mount thread size, which is the same size as the male threading on the head/plate of this tripod. No adapter or reducers are required.

Q: 2. Will it fit a Panasonic HC X1 ? As it has the overhanging handle.

A: The HC-X1 has a 67mm filter thread and this comes with an adapter for 67mm. You will be able to connect it, but this really is designed for smaller DSLR and Mirrorless cameras. We would not recommend it for the HC-X1.

Q: 5. Can this clamp onto a lens without the threaded adapters if the lens has the correct outer diameter? What outer diameter would make this possible?

A: According to the manufacturer, the Tiltaing Mini Matte Box (B&H# TIMBT15) has an approximate opening size of 87mm: https://bit.ly/3KErKFF However, that is just an opening and not a clamp. As such, my answer to your question is no, you need to use a threaded adapter. Adapters for lenses with these sizes of front filter threads are included with the kit: 67mm, 72mm, 77mm, and 82mm.
