**Q: Can you stack 2 filters together round filter tray that comes with this matte box? I saw in a review that it can be done**
A: You can use 2 circular filters with the the Tilta circular stackable tray. You can't put 2 filters in the standard tray. Even if you could them to fit they would be touching. Also, if you are using the variable ND filter or the Polarizer filter you won't be able to adjust them. They require their own tray.

A: Hi, 

No, this product does not natively come with any filters. You can find compatible filters at Tilta.com under the Mirage Matte Box ecosystem page:
