Does the kit come with the extension arm to attach the zoom controller?
Asked by: harold
The SHAPE Shoulder Mount Kit for Sony FS5/FS5M2 (BH #SHFS5SM • MFR #FS5SM) does not include an extension arm to attach the zoom controller but you can get the separately available SHAPE Remote Extension Handle for Sony FS5/FS5M2 Camera (BH #SHFS5RH • MFR #FS5RH) and attach it to the right side of the shoulder mount by removing one of the rubber hand grips.

Will this shoulder mount work with the shape vct plate?
Asked by: Jay
Hello Jay, Thank you for your question! Unfortunately, the baseplate in this rig will not fit onto our VCT plate. However it has threaded holes underneath, to attach a tripod quick release plate. If you wish to use a VCT plate, we invite you to take a look at our Sony FS5 Bundle rig with Metabones support. https://www.shapewlb.com/en/product/brands/sony-camera-supports/sony-pxw-fs5-camera-supports/sony-fs5-fs5m2-baseplate-bundle-rig-with-metabones-support_850.aspx?id_page_parent=1179. We hope this helps and we thank you for your interest in our products. The SHAPE team

Is it possible to use the baseplate with a tripod with the assistance of a quick release plate and which would be the best to use with this rig?
Asked by: Jay
Hello Jay, Thank you for your question! Indeed it is possible. You can easily attach any tripod quick release plate underneath all of our baseplates. Any video tripod which has a quick release plate, not too big would be ideal. We hope this helps and we thank you for your interest in our products. The Shape team.

question

Is it possible to screw a plate on it that way it can go straight from the shoulder to the tripod ?
Asked by: Nick M.
Hello NickThank you for your question! Indeed you can attach your tripod plate underneath the main baseplate of our unit and leave it there at all times given the threaded holes underneath the main baseplate. You have access to 1/4-20 and 3/8-16 threaded holes.We hope this answers your question and we thank you for your interest in our products.Best regards,The SHAPE team
