Sony FS5, FS5M2baseplate

Small and lightweight baseplate is a perfectsolution for PXW-FS5, FS5M2. It is designed to fit with all the key features ofthe camera and is also perfect for drone and gimbal application. At the top ofthe baseplate there are rubber pads so that the camera doesn’t sit directly onthe aluminum.

The baseplate fits 15 mm standard rods, and the rods are securedwith a red ratchet knob screw. On the side, you have ¼-20 threaded holes formounting options. Under the baseplate, we added four (4) ¼-20 and two (2)3/8-16 threaded holes that allow you to attach a tripod plate.

To reduce theweight of the baseplate, we removed excess aluminum from the bottom of theplate during the machining process. It comes with a pair of Rods to let you addvarious SHAPE and third-party accessories compatible with 15 mm rods. Withthese two rods and with a few fundamental accessories, you can most certainlyeven begin building your own rig from scratch. We also designed a removablesupport bracket for a METABONES® adapter (FS5MA) that can be added on thebaseplate to support the weight and remove stress to the camera lens mount.

Fixed with 2 screws in front of the baseplate, it can be removed when not needed. (1) ¼-20 and (1) 3/8-16 captive screw are included in this package to secure the camera’s position in translation and rotation, so it won’t move. For a precise positioning, we designed the bracket with a 3 mm vertical adjustment to make sure it’s well positioned for the best support. The baseplate includes a set of 15 mm 10 inches rods and is designed with a lightweight system for mounting any standard 15 mm accessories.
