A rear rectangular baffle as seen on high-grade lenses should serve. I'm not certain how it might be secured without falling backward into the mirror box and wrecking stuff, but you're welcome to try. I will proceed with my matte box because it will fix flare on some other problem glass I use.

Rico, where did you get the flat plate that you are attaching to the C-Stand? Is it custom?
I'm in Chicago, too. Nice use of the 1800 Maple Parking lot sign at Church St. Plaza as an example. I know it well.

Greetings! I test lenses at infinity off the Metra platform in downtown Evanston where there are several urban views: nothing interesting unless I can catch a peregrine eating dinner. The plate is a Matthews foam core holder:



The idea is to tape the plate onto the back of some reflector material. I never actually deploy it in this way but, rather, as a support for gear and props. The ball joint is vaguely useful but unnecessary with a knuckle in the mix.

Thank you so much, Rico!
