Minimum size, maximum practicality.
For filmmakers who don't need a full cage but want to expand their shooting platform: only what you need, without any excess - weighing in at under 100g.

The minimal footprint is designed to compliment the cameras profile whilst keeping all of the IO, the hotshoe, the buttons and the strap loops completely unobscured.

The top plate securely attaches to the top of the camera with a captive 1/4"-20 screw and machined Canon striped rosette.

Mounting
The top plate features a reversible handle block - with a Canon striped rosette to mount the original top handle - or flip it over for a flat surface to mount NATO rails or third party 1/4"-20 top handles.

On the left, the mini cheese board is ideal for mounting rod clamps for lens motors or XLR breakout boxes above the IO stack.

The skeletonised platform on the right consists of a cheese stick and a cold shoe - perfect for mounting a radio mic receiver or timecode sync box. The platform shields the power switch from accidental knocks and retains plenty of clearance to operate all of the buttons on top of the camera.

The mic shock mount can be relocated to the right side of the top plate for a lower profile top mic placement. Alternatively, the M4 threads are Arri MAP compatible plus an additional 1/4"-20 is available for further rigging possibilities.

The middle row of threads on the cheese board plus the right side 1/4"-20 are aligned with the sensor plane.

Note that the images are illustrative - final product subject to minor changes and improvements.
