SHAPE COMPOSITE Camera Shoulder Rig for Sony F55/F5

Perform handheld shots safely and add accessories to your Sony F5 or F55 rig with this COMPOSITE Camera Shoulder Rig from SHAPE. This rig is an adjustable, lightweight, and compact 15mm LWS shoulder-mounted rig designed for the Sony F5 or F55 cameras. It is built around the Paparazzi Riser baseplate, a pair of 15mm LWS rod blocks, and a set of four 8" 15mm rods. For shoulder-mounted shooting, dual handgrips, a Paparazzi top handle, and a shoulder pad are included for a variety of handheld options.

The handgrips feature SHAPE's patented spring-loaded push-button technology that lets you quickly adjust the angle of the grips on the fly with just the push of your thumb. They mount onto the front pair of 15mm rods. The adjustable composite shoulder pad is adjustable and mounts onto the back 15mm rods. For additional support and comfort, the included back pad attaches to the rear of the shoulder pad and can accept separately available counterweights if they are required. When you need to mount your rig on a tripod, the Paparazzi baseplate features 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threads on the bottom.

The rods are 8" (203mm) long and have a diameter of 0.59" (15mm). You can use the 15mm Female - Female Rods (8") with 15mm Male - Female Rod (4" / 101.6mm), 15mm Female - Female Rod (6" / 152.4mm), Rod Black, and the Sliding Rod Block.

Compatible with 15mm Male - Female Rod (4" / 101.6mm), 15mm Female - Female Rod (6" / 152.4mm), Rod Black, and the Sliding Rod Block

The Shape Quick Handle + Rod Block is a professional video stabilization accessory with 2 camera handles, each providing an individual rotation angle of 360°. You can attach the handle to the camera platform using a simple screw knob. A simple push button located at the articulation allows easy attachment and removal.

Combined with the anodized aluminum Rod Block, the Quick Handle offers composite camera support for all 15mm rods. You can achieve precise positioning by sliding the Quick Handle along the rods and tightening the small red knob located on the Rod Block. With 2 screw-threaded holes, the Rod Block provides for attachment of components such as the Quick Handle.

The Handle features a total of 20 screw-holes for attaching accessories, and the Bloc mounts 15mm rods and keeps the Handle parallel with a camera. You can slide the Bloc up and down the rods and tighten it into position by a red lever on the side. Both the Handle and Bloc are totally solid -- not at all hollow -- and are both water cut / laser cut, as opposed to being molded.

The 20 screw-holes are a mix of 1/4", 3/8" and 1/2" sizes and all run completely through from end to end. They are positioned vertically or horizontally along the Handle. The 1/4" and 3/8" holes can take on most any 1/4" and 3/8" accessories like lights, monitors, mics, grips, remote controls, recorders, articulating arms, wireless audio receivers, camera plates, and more. And into the 1/2" holes you can screw in male-threaded SHAPE rods.
