Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. 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.

Q: 2. How do I get the creases from folds out of the fabric?

A: Keep it on the frame, get it wet, let it dry in the sun! ...Then roll it not fold it for storage

Q: 3. Will this fit the classic less robust "non-cine" 6x6 scrim jim?

A: No, this Scrim Jim fabric is only for the Scrim Jim Cine frame.

Q: 4. 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: 5. 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: 6. 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: 7. Does this diffuser work with the original frames or just the new design?

A: This Westcott Scrim Jim Cine fabric only works on the current Scrim Jim Cine frames.

Q: 8. I have a 6x6 Scrim Jim how do I tell if it is the old or new version? And will this fit if I have the old version?

A: Great question, William. The old version of Scrim Jim used 3/4" thick framing and the frames connected to each other using a tension fit. The new version (Scrim Jim Cine) uses a thicker 1" frame and connects using a positive locking system. The new system also has corners that are NOT built into the frame, like they were in the original version. The sizing of diffusion silks are not the same for the new version, as we standardized the sizing to what is common in the industry for the Scrim Jim Cine lineup.

Q: 9. 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: 10. are the 4x4 plain diffusion cloths seamless?

A: Yes, the Westcott Scrim Jim Cine 1/4-Stop Diffuser Fabric (4 x 4') comes with a seamless fabric.
