Trying to wake this thread up again as I'm getting close to buying a mattebox and the Vocas seemed to be a great option. The only problem is that they are "missing in action" here in the States. Schneider/Century was selling them but they have ceased carrying the Vocas brand and I can't seem to find them any more. Anybody know who carries them now?

Are you sure about that? B&H still lists the same Vocas/Century model that I have: Century Precision Optics 0DS-MB44-WEX 4x4 DV 0DS-MB44-WEX - B&H

Schneider still has them on their site as well: https://www.schneideroptics.com/ecommerce/CatalogItemDetail.aspx?CID=1390&IID=6415

Note that they do not advertise them as "Vocas", but it is the same product.

Thanks for the link, Boyd. I had it on good authority that they were not carrying the line any more and that somebody else would be selling Vocas. Either way, thanks for the link.

You certainly could be right - I have no inside knowledge. But the model shown above is the same as the Vocas, and also the same as the one I have. I did note that B&H shows it as a special order. But that was also the case when I bought mine. If anyone is in the market, I'm sure a call or e-mail to Century would clear this up.
