The compact, lightweight ARRI Compact Bridge Plate CBP-6 is designed for use with the ALEXA 35 cinema camera and provides a sliding bridge plate and a shoulder pad. The bridge plate mounts onto the BUD-1 utility dovetail, and its sliding function provides balance and support, especially when using long lenses. The quick release system has been improved from previous bridge plate models, and it also allows lifting the camera straight off the dovetail. It supports both 15mm LWS and 15mm studio rods as an option.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Under the plate, (center piece that connects to the bridge plate) is that a manfrotto plate that could be used for the RS2/3?

A: No, the connecting plate on the Kondor Blue Universal 15mm LWS Bridge Plate for ARRI/RED/URSA/C70/VENICE (Raven Black) is not a manfrotto style plate.

Q: 2. Will this work with a ZCam Kondor Blue cage?

A: Kondor Blue makes many cages for ZCam cameras and the Kondor Blue Universal 15mm LWS Bridge Plate for ARRI/RED/URSA/C70/VENICE (Space Gray) (B&H# KOKBUARRIBRP) would certainly work with many of them.

Q: 3. Can it be dropped in to the dovetail or it needs to be slided in to attach and to detach?

A: The Kondor Blue Universal 15mm LWS Bridge Plate for ARRI/RED/URSA/C70/VENICE (Raven Black) can drop onto a dovetail plate.

Q: 4. Can this be used with the Lumix S5 Cage?

A: Yes, you can use any cage that has a 1/4"-20 and/or 3/8"-16 thread with the 8Sinn 15mm Baseplate + Riser Plate I.

Q: 5. Would this work with the Bright Tangerine Komodo cage?

A: It is hard to tell because there are a variety of configurations of the Bright Tangerine Cage for the RED Komodo. The ARRI Bridge Plate BP-9 will most likely mount to the bottom of your configuration. However, I recommend using the Bright Tangerine LeftField QR Baseplate for RED KOMODO with Standard Riser/Dovetail. This item will be the most compatible with the rest of your rig and provides the same functionality.

Q: 6. Is this compatible with the BPA-5? or am I limited to the traditional bp8 or bp9?

A: The ARRI BPS-2 Bridge Plate Sled would not be compatible with the ARRI BPA-5 as it is designed to work with baseplates such as the ARRI MBP-3 or MBP-1.

Q: 7. Does this work with Komodo Cage? And does this put the camera to correct 15mm LW height?

A: NO this will not place the Komodo at the correct 15mm LW height, the komodo will require a base plate designed for that camera

Q: 8. What balance plate model number is compatible with the top of this unit?

A: The ARRI CBP-4 Compact Bridge Plate for AMIRA (15mm Studio/15mm LWS) (B&H# ARK2.0019582) does not require a balance plate in order to be used with the ARRI AMIRA Camera Set with Advanced License - The Allrounder (B&H# ARK0.0001091), but it may be attached to a balance plate (which is essentially a cheese plate with very many female threads, i.e. taps, in it) in many places. The two (bridge and balance plates) are typically compatible with each other as long as the balance plate is one made for the specific camera model. However, as of this time (April 2022) B&H does not sell such a plate, nor are we aware of any that is available. That is likely because the AMIRA actually balances very well without one when a typical V-mount or Gold mount battery is installed behind it.

Q: 9. Does the Wooden Camera Lens Adapter Support Posts for Unified DSLR Cage (Small, Medium, Large) fit this plate?

A: Considering the Proaim 15mm Universal Bridge Plate with Arca-Swiss Core Plate is a copy of the Wooden Camera Unified Baseplate for URSA Mini, F55, F5, you should be able to use the Wooden Camera Unified Lens Adapter Support Kit for Unified Baseplate on the Proaim 15mm Universal Bridge Plate with Arca-Swiss Core Plate.

Q: 10. does it have screw holes on the bottom of the plate?

A: Yes. The following plate has 3 openings that will accommodate both 1/4 and 3/8 screws.
