SHAPE FS5 Baseplate

SHAPE designed a baseplate that would fit with all the key features of the camera. Built small and lightweight, this baseplate is a perfect solution for this PXW-FS5. ;

Included with the baseplate; one (1) ¼-20 and one (1) 3/8-16 captive screw to secure the camera's position in translation and rotation so it won't move. ;

At the top of the baseplate there are rubber pads so that the camera doesn't sit directly on the aluminum. ; The baseplate fits 15mm standard rods, and the rods are secured with a red ratchet knob screw. On the side, you have ¼-20 threaded holes for mounting 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 the weight of the baseplate, we removed excess aluminium from the bottom of the plate during the machining process. ;

We also designed a removable support bracket for a METABONES® adapter (FS5MA) that can be added on the baseplate 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. For a precise positioning, we designed the bracket with a 3mm vertical adjustment to make sure it's well positioned for the best support.

The baseplate includes a set of 15mm 10 inch rods. ;

It's perfect for drone and gimbal application, and it's designed with a lightweight system for mounting any standard 15 mm accessories.
