Product description

• VCT Pro Baseplate With built-in ergonomic shoulder pad, 10" sliding track, extra space for accessories in front, VCT14-compatible V-wedge, red buttons and levers all around, and much more, this is the stylish VCT Pro Baseplate from Zacuto. Use it with all types of cameras, from DSLRs to larger models, like the Alexa.
  
  A section of the baseplate extends out beyond the 15mm LWS rod adapter in front. With the rod adapter thus set back, you have additional space to mount accessories under the camera lens, allowing you to position the camera further back on the plate, keeping the balance point of your rig directly over your shoulder. (The rod adapter is vertically adjustable 1", and has to be in a raised position to allow for accessories to be mounted in the additional space. Also, a 1.8" riser for the rod adapter is optionally available for RED cameras by special order from Zacuto.) Also, on the bottom of the section that protrudes out is where the V-wedge is. There is also a 15mm LWS rod adapter on the rear.
  
  The VCT Pro Baseplate features a 10" sliding track, providing the space to optimally adjust balance after every lens change. Moreover, the included red camera plate can be loosened by a spring-loaded lever instead of a screw, so you can make adjustments quickly and easily. To fully release and remove the plate (and camera), just press a red button on the side of the baseplate and slide the plate out. The rod ports also have spring-loaded levers.
  
  An ARRI M6 rosette is available on the front for attaching accessories and grips, and there are also three 1/4"-20 threaded holes on the side providing additional mounting options. 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 tripod mount holes are available on the bottom to use instead of the V-wedge. The shoulder pad runs pretty much along the entire length as well as width of the baseplate, and is made of gel polymer. Two 6.5" 15mm rods are included. One 1/4"-20 and one 3/8"-16 screw are supplied for the camera plate. The VCT Pro Baseplate is made in the USA.

• 90° Z-Rail Rod Lock Use the Zacuto 90° Z-Rail Rod Lock to secure the Axis Mini EVF mount on a Half Cage or a Z-Rail placed at the front of the camera perpendicular to the sensor plane. Alternatively, you can conveniently mount a 15mm rod, articulating arm, or Zacuto ZUD in perpendicular orientation to the Z-Rail. Two 90° Rod Locks placed on the same rail can be spaced for properly mounting 15mm LWS accessories without the need for a baseplate. Z-Rail accessories are also compatible with NATO, SWAT, RED, Picatinny, and Wooden Camera rails.
• Zgrip Z-Mount Zwivel Handgrip The Zgrip Z-Mount Zwivel Handgrip from Zacuto comes with a black 4.5" rod and a Z-Mount Zwivel. It easily mounts on any 15mm rod with the quick release handgrip. The Zwivel allows you to change the angle between two 15mm rods by loosening the single lever that controls both the 15mm holes. Adjustments to achieve the desired angle are possible by the separation between the parts induced by the integrated spring.
  • The Zwivel allows you to change the angle between two 15mm rods by loosening the single lever that controls both the 15mm holes.
  • The Handgrip supports all 15mm rods with the quick release handgrip.
  • The integrated spring separates the parts for you to achieve the desired angle between the rods.
• 3" Z-Rail The Zacuto 5" Z-Rail is used to mount a variety of Z-Rail accessories to a range of compatible cameras, including the RED Epic/Scarlet, Canon C300/C500, or the Black Magic Cinema Camera, and is also ideal for use on a second camera to permit faster switching of accessories between the two cameras. It attaches via two included 1/4"-20 screws that can be spaced between 3/8" and 2-5/32" apart.
