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: 6. Should I get the one with the integrated ball head or the other one and get the BH-40? Some reviews say the ball-head is a compromise from other RRS ball heads

A: Depends on your desired use. If you want the tripod to be as light as possible, then get the integrated head. If you have particular taste or a favorite head like the BH-40, this would work very well with it. The BH-40 would introduce about an extra pound of weight, but the head would be more secure for large more telephoto lenses. Either way it works really well with the integrated head or the BH-40. I use the Ascend 14 with an Arca head and enjoy it. It's all a preference.

Q: 8. D5300 Camera with 18-140 'kit' lens- Will the VR and AF function the same with these?

A: Yes, VR and AF will work, VR works inside the lenses, no relation with the tubes, and AF will work because of the electrical contacts between the lens and camera (but if you're doing macro shots you should use manual focus)

Q: 9. Could the 8 hold a Sony A7RII with 16-35GM w/hood attached and a DJI Mavic Air and Controller?

Q: 10. I have a Nikon D5100,,the description for these Vello lenses say that they are not compatible with Nikon D5000 series cameras but some of the answers here and on other forums say they do work. Can anyone clarify/verify this for me?

A: I don't own a D5100, but they work with Nikon F mount. Should work with the D5100. Some lens may now auto focus.
