SHAPE BP12 REVOLT VCT Universal Baseplate with Telescopic Handles

Description

The REVOLT VCT Universal Baseplate with Telescopic Handles from SHAPE is a camera support system for shoulder-mounted and handheld shooting. It includes the REVOLT VCT universal baseplate and dual telescopic handgrips with ARRI rosettes. The baseplate comes integrated with a shoulder mount, one pair of 8"(20.3 cm) standard 15 mm rods, and one pair of 4"(10.2 cm) standard 15 mm rods. The camera can be attached via 1/4"-20 or 3/8"-16 screws to the top plate. The sliding baseplate provides a quick positioning of your camera and accessories, for an optimal adjustment of your camera's balance centre. The left and right handgrips attach to the sides of the baseplate via standard ARRI rosettes.

Featuring a sliding camera plate, SHAPE 's REVOLT VCT Universal Baseplate can accommodate rigs of varying sizes. Simply attach your camera via 1/4"-20 or 3/8"-16 screws to the top plate, and slide it onto the shoulder plate. Fore and aft movement allows you to balance the weight of your setup properly. Further adjustments can be made by moving the shoulder pad. The 15 mm rod clamps at the front and rear of the baseplate allow you to secure 15 mm accessories such as a matte box, follow focus, lens motors, lens supports, battery plates, or external recorders. Since the front rod clamp is attached to the top plate, the rod-mounted accessories don't need to be repositioned as the rig is adjusted. Additionally, handles can be mounted to the ARRI standard rosettes on either side of the plate. When not shoulder-mounted, the baseplate can be secured to a standard VCT-14 ENG quick release in a matter of seconds, saving time on set.

The black Telescopic Handles with ARRI Rosettes from SHAPE  are left and right handgrips that can be attached to cameras and camera support hardware that has standard ARRI rosettes. Each arm features three points of articulation, combined with the approximately two inches(5.08 cm) of arm extension allows you to adjust the arms for your comfort. The arms attach to your camera or support via an ARRI compatible rosette with spring-loaded locking levers, which allow you to lock your arms in place without having a full 360° of rotation.

Shape's unique push-button articulating joint provides additional articulation near the rosette, while a second push-button articulation joint allows you to rotate and precisely position the rubber handgrips. A second spring-loaded locking lever along the arms allows you to extend the arms up to two inches and rotate the handgrips throughout 360°. The arms are indexed for extension and rotation, so you can quickly move between known setups.
