The Sony FS5 Recoil shoulder-mounted rig includes Zacuto VCT Pro baseplate, the FS5 Grip Relocator for the Sony FS5 handgrip,a 13.5" LANC extension cable, the FS5 Top Plate, and Zacuto Axis Mini for Sony FS5 which can be used with either the Gratical HD, Eye or the Sony LCD monitor with Zacuto Z-Finder.
This is a Next Generation Recoil rig designed for optimal balance and comfort when shoulder mounted or on a tripod. With lenses and cameras being similar weights, the balance point is where the lens meets the camera body. In a Recoil rig, the balance point needs to be directly over your shoulder which puts the camera behind you. This requires focus, monitoring and camera controls to be relocated forward, creating a lighter and shorter rig.
Includes:
VCT Pro – this baseplate has a sliding top plate for quickly removing the camera from the rig or fast len changes, a built-in, curved shoulder pad, a v-wedge tripod connector (with ¼” 20 and 3/8" 16 screw option). It has removable and extendable 6.5” iris rods and rows of ¼” 20 screw holes along the sides for accessories. It has quick release 15mm rod parts in the rear.
