Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Do these newer Cine versions of the cloth work with the older 4x6 frames that only have velcro?

A: No. Make sure you purchase the 42x72 inch silks for the original scrim jim frames. I made the mistake of ordering the 4x6 cine silk and it was to big.

Q: 2. can I use this with a 4x4 frame that isn't from Westcott?

A: It is possible to use it with a different frame, but you might have difficulty fastening it to the frame. Westcott has velcro that lines the frame and the diffuser, and it is quite a tight fit. But it is just a diffuser and you could clip it on. Might be a pain, and not fit exactly.

Q: 3. does this already come with the frame or I have to purchase the frame separately?

A: You will need to purchase the frame separately.

Q: 4. How small does the frame get when traveling? Does the frame break down to 4x 6ft pieces or are there 8x 3ft pieces?

A: The frames side components are combinations of 3 lengths of interchangeable tubes and connectors. The 6' x 6' frames are made up of 2-46 tubes connected to 2-22 tubes with the connectors adding the remaining length. The longest of the current Cine tubes is the 46 version. You could also build the frames with smaller components by ordering the frame tubes and connectors ala carte.

Q: 5. Others have asked, but it hasn't been clearly answered. I have the older Scrim Jim kit (tension fit, velcro). Will this fabric fit my frame?

A: No. The following unit is designed and made for the 6 x 6' Scrim Jim Cine frames only.

Q: 6. I don't understand the amount of stops reduced, is it variable from 1 to 1/4?

A: This fabric is not variable, it reduces 1.25 stops of light.

Q: 7. What stands and connectors are recommended for this frame?

A: For a Scrim Jim Cine that is 6' by 6', a lot of people prefer to use two light stands with grip heads (Westcott part #1881) and Scrim Jim Frame Clamps (Westcott Part #1980) on each stand. If you want to use a single light stand, we recommend a heavy duty C-Stand with the same grip and clamp noted above as well as some sand bags for the base of the C-Stand.

Q: 8. Hi! Can this be used without a frame - can I hang with clamps? Thank you!

A: The fabric would be best used with the frame as it has Velcro along the edges keeping it stretched flat to its appropriate size. I would be careful to not damage the fabric when hanging it in another way but you can certainly use it however you would like.

Q: 9. We have a Scrim Jim frame kit. Does this silk have velcro running along all edges to attach to a frame?

A: The Scrim Jim Kit underwent changes in 2016 when it was upgraded to standard industry sizes, more mounting options, and more fabric options. This product is for the Scrim Jim Cine (new version) so please check your Scrim Jim version to determine if the sizing is the same. If you have further questions, please call Westcott customer support at 419-243-7311.

Q: 10. Curious when is grid cloth better than plain cloth? Understand the difference but seeking the why. Thanks.

A: Grid cloth diffuses the light while making it more directional versus standard diffusion which simply spreads the light as needed.
