Q: 1. Does it fit only the C500 or is it compatible with the URSA Mini pro?

A: The Shape Baseplate says it's for the Canon c500 because it is made to be used with the Shape c500 cage. You could use this baseplate with the URSA Mini pro, but it only has 1/4 20" screw holds under the camera, and this baseplate comes with one 1/4 20" and one 3/8 16" screws. I would use two 1/4 20" screws to attach the c500.

Q: 2. What is the weight of the Shape quick release plate?

Q: 4. Can you mount the camera to this baseplate using the center screws, shifting the camera back an inch or so, similar to the zacuto baseplate?

A: Just be aware that you will likely go through the adjustment game forever if using the shoulder mount for anything off of sticks. I know they sell an accessory wedge to place under the rear of the camera. Might be worth looking into if you are for sure going to change the screw placement.

Q: 8. Can this mount fit a panasonic CX350?

A: Yes, the CAMVATE Handheld Shoulder Mount Rig with Manfrotto Quick Release Baseplate will fit the Panasonic AG-CX350 4K Camcorder. It may not have the proper support from the small baseplate of this setup and may need to be replaced by something with a larger footprint.

Q: 10. Is anyone having poblems with it clicking properly into VCT14? I have to remove the shoulder pad for it to click into place securely and even then mostly it doesnt click into the rear screw. I bought a new VCT14 thinking that was the issue but I still have the same problem

A: I feel like I had a similar issue when I first got the base plate, but maybe over time it's been able to fit better into the quick release plate. In the beginning I might've press down on the camera to help secure it. I probably still make sure that it's clicking in the place of the rear lock.
