The microShoulderMount has a unique shoulder pad that can be separate from its rod clamp for mounting beneath an existing rod plate (a common configuration for 35mm adapter setups). The hand grips, camera, and shoulderpad can all be adjusted to fit your body and shooting style.
Adaptable to a wide range of cameras and shooting styles
The microShoulderMount can be adapted to just about any style of shooting or camera.
- The handgrips and shoulderpad can be integrated onto your existing 15mm rod system for a compact setup.
- For maximum flexibility, the optional microShoulderMount can be run on a separate set of rods beneath your rig for quick attachment or removal of the shouldermount support.
- For ENG style cameras with an integrated shoulderpad, the handlebar, grips, and rod clamp can be attached directly to the camera while using the camera's own shoulder pad.
- For setups requiring precise balancing, the rod clamp can be separated from the shoulder pad, so the camera and shoulderpad can be moved independently on the rods.
The microShoulderMount is not a replacement for a baseplate system (such as a microSupport baseplate required for the microMatteBox) but is compatible with and configurable to an existing baseplate incorporate the microShoulderMount support system.
The microShoulderMount standard bundle can be used with your existing rods and M2 setup
