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.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Will this support 1920x1080 resolution at 120fps on the C300 mk3 ?

A: The EVF has a maximum refresh rate of 60p. This does not affect your ability to record or view footage that is 1920x1080 at 120fps. The camera processes so that the image can be displayed properly on the EVF.

Q: 2. Does not seem compatible with Anton Bauer’s own Titon SL V90 Gold Mount battery (i.e., one of the lightest V-mount batteries I could find). This is baffling to me. Am I missing something???

A: V-mount and gold-mount are separate systems. Get the SL V90 v-mount rather than the gold-mount. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1593602-REG/anton_bauer_8675_0116_titon_sl_90_95wh.html

Q: 3. Is the top handle included?

A: The top handle is included in this kit.

Q: 4. Description says it sits at an angle. That makes sense for hot swapping, but can it also sit flush against the back of the camera? That's what I'm looking for for hand held. An angled battery would be just as uncomfortable as the stupid canon battery design as it is.

A: Using a BP-A30 battery will allow the Wooden Camera Battery Slide to sit flush to the camera.

Q: 5. Does the "false color" function work with the C200? Based on my research so far, it seems the answer is no - it seems like false color needs to be supported by the camera firmware (C700, C500 Mk II, C300 Mk II/III) itself.

A: I would also say the answer is no. According to the Canon website, this EVF is not combatable with the C200.

Q: 6. Does this rig include the electronic cable that connects the camera body with the Canon hand grip?

A: Yes this product will come with the cable to connect the trigger grip to the camera.

Q: 7. Does the 4pin XLR input power the DTap outputs along with the camera?

A: This product has a power output via 4 Pin XLR. The 4Pin XLR output sends power to the 4 Pin XLR input on the C300 MK III or C500 MK II. All D-taps will be active when you mount a battery on it.

Q: 8. How well would this rig fit with the c300 mk II and will it effect the functionality of the camera at all?

A: This would not work, as battery adapter unit is different on the III.

Q: 9. Would this work for the c200?

A: Sorry, no. This is for the C700 only.

Q: 10. I can't seem to find a "what's in the box" for this product. Is the video cable included? I'm just concerned about the length of the cable that came with the C300 mk3.

A: The Canon EVF-V70 OLED Viewfinder for C700 (B&H# CAEVFV70) does not include a cable. The two cables most commonly used with it are the Canon UN-5 Unit Cable for Select Canon EOS Cameras & XC15 (20") (B&H# CAUN5UC50) https://bhpho.to/3smRcYx and the Canon UN-10 Unit Cable for Select Canon EOS Cameras & XC15 (39") (B&H# CAUN10UC100): https://bhpho.to/2WhIiOu
