SHAPE Universal Lens Support Pro
Key Features
  • 15mm LWS Rod Clamp
  • Height-Adjustable Support Shaft
  • 1/4"-20 and 3/8"16 Threaded Studs
  • Y-Shaped Universal Support
Support heavy telephoto or zoom lenses with the Shape Universal Lens Support Pro. This lens support secures to 15mm LWS rods, distributing the lens weight over the rods, removing stress from your camera's lens mount. A spring-loaded lever tightens the rod clamp. 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded studs fit inside the height-adjustable support shaft to interface with most standard lens support feet. The support shaft is tightened with a thumbscrew. If your lens doesn't have a support foot, the Universal Lens Support Pro includes a rubber-padded Y-shaped adapter that will add support to your lens.

will this work with the Xeen cinema lenses support foot?
Asked by: Lowell
Yes, when paired with an appropriate 15mm rod system, such as the SHAPE Compact Revolt Shoulder Baseplate (SKU: SHBP20), this lens support should work well with most Xeen lens and camera set ups, although some camera systems may require a riser on the camera side such as the Shape Paparazzi Riser SHRISERPA1.

Hi, what's the minimum height I can achieve with the 1/4" 20 head? I have only 1.1cm of clearance between my rod and my cine lens foot.
Asked by: Yui
Yes, The SHAPE Universal Lens Support Pro has a minimum supported distance of 1.1cm The minimum height is actually 1.1 cm, meaning the silver tube is all the way down inside the rod bracket, only the ¼-20 thread is above the rod bracket opening. Also, The whole lens support can be installed upside down by the way for even more clearance.

question

Can this be compatable to canon cn e 14.5-60 mm t/2.6 pl lens on black magic design 4k pl mount camera(the big one) as the lens foot on this lens too long and goes beyond the 15mm rods on the ursa camera
Asked by: Asok
Hello Asok,Thank you for contacting us! Yes it is! We've installed it before on setups. Note that the silver cylinder in the middle of the lens support can be moved up or down to adjust to the size of the lens. You should be able to mount it underneath the lens without a problem. We hope this helps and we thank you for your interest in our products. The SHAPE team.

question

What is payload capacity of this? Can it support the Cooke S4 weight?
Asked by: Connor
Hello Connor, thank you for your question! Our Universal lens support pro is more than capable of supporting the Cooke S4 series lenses. Camera operators will use this unit to support way bigger lenses. Our lens support is made of very sturdy aluminum so it can support very heavy zoom lenses. So it certainly won't be a problem for the Cooke S4 lenses. We hope this helps and we thank you for your interest in our products. The SHAPE team.
