Enhance your Canon EOS C500 Mark II camera's functionality and versatility with the C52BT Top Plate with Baseplate and Handle. This professional-grade rig kit from SHAPE is designed to provide a sturdy and reliable platform for your camera, transforming it from a tripod-mounted unit to a handheld shoulder rig for increased mobility and ease of use. The kit includes a shoulder mount baseplate with a 15mm rod system, a top plate, an adapter plate, and a rosette handle with a black push-button. The baseplate features an integrated shoulder mount, designed to provide comfort and stability when shooting handheld.
The adapter plate attaches to the rear of the camera, ensuring a secure and stable fit on the baseplate. The 15mm rods are perfect for mounting additional accessories like a matte box and follow focus, enhancing your camera's capabilities. The push-button handle attaches to the baseplate and can rotate using the rosette joints, allowing for customizable positioning for optimal comfort. The top plate, made from lightweight and robust CNC machined aluminum, is designed to fit seamlessly with the native Canon EOS C500 Mark II top handle. It offers 1/4-20 and 3/8-16 threads with Arri standard anti-rotating holes, providing multiple attachment points for additional accessories.
The top plate comes with a 3/16'' Hex wrench and four captive screws for easy and secure attachment to the camera. The kit also includes a Double Quick Handle Arri Rosette Single Shadow (HAND2S), featuring left or right ARRI Rosettes handgrips that can be attached to cameras or camera support hardware with standard ARRI rosettes. The arm features three points of articulation, allowing for precise adjustment for your comfort. The arm attaches to your camera or support via an ARRI compatible rosette with spring-loaded locking levers, ensuring a secure fit. The kit is completed with a pair of 15 mm 8" rods and a pair of 15 mm 4" rods, both made from hollow aluminum tubes.
These rods fit studio and LWS 15 mm rod clamps, allowing you to use available rod-mounted accessories. The rods feature chamfered ends, making it easier to insert into 15 mm rod clamps, even if the rod isn't perfectly aligned or is at a slight angle to the rod clamp. With the C52BT Top Plate with Baseplate and Handle, you can elevate your Canon EOS C500 Mark II camera's performance and versatility, making it a reliable choice for professional photographers and videographers.
