The SHAPE Complete Solution for Canon C500 Mark II and C300 Mark III outfits your camera with a full production package that allows you to add accessories and improve handheld functionality, and it includes both a follow focus unit and rod-mounted matte box. The kit includes the SHAPE C500 cage, REVOLT baseplate, top plate, left-side handgrip, push-button viewfinder mount, Follow Focus Pro, 4 x 5.6" rod-mounted matte box, and a long top handle. This setup protects your camera and allows you to add accessories without stressing your camera's body. The components are made out of anodized CNC-machined aluminum, and they feature multiple 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded holes.
The SHAPE Push-Button Viewfinder Mount for Canon C500 Mark II and C300 Mark III mounts onto the SHAPE Top Handle that comes in a variety of SHAPE kits (not included). It provides you with a 15mm mounting rod for side-to-side adjustment and a push-button articulation point that turns your viewfinder into a horizontal flip-out viewfinder.
The Viewfinder Mount also incorporates two additional points of push-button 360° articulation and a squared rod with spring-loaded locking lever that work in conjunction to adjust the height and orientation of your viewfinder, allowing you to place the viewfinder just where you need it.
The SHAPE Follow Focus Pro mounts on 15mm rods and features an adjustable arm which puts the gear at the optimal position for the lens, no matter what the diameter is. The unit snaps onto 15mm rods, allowing for quick attachment, removal, and re-positioning. Two 0.8 pitch gears come included and give you a choice of either 28 teeth or 43 teeth - depending on the throw distance of the lens. Additional features include two adjustable hard stops, removable marking disc, and an industry standard accessory port for using optional whips and cranks.

The SHAPE 2-Stage 4 x 5.6" Clip-On and 15mm LWS Rod-Mounted Matte Box provides filmmakers flare and glare protection when creating their images, whether in a minimal configuration or on a large studio shoot. The matte box can be used either as a clip-on matte box when not using rods or with 15mm LWS rod supports, providing you the flexibility to use the same matte box in either shooting situation. The matte box comes with 114 and 84mm clip-on adapter rings.
The matte box features two rotating 4 x 5.6" filter stages, ideal for use with polarizers, grad, and effect filters. The two included 4 x 5.65" filter holders feature a spring-latch system to hold your filters securely, and each filter stage has a locking knob that enables you to precisely set the height of your filter in the stage. The matte box accepts lenses with a front diameter up to 114mm, and it includes an 82mm filter ring. It comes with six step-down rings that allow you to use lenses with an outer diameter of 52, 58, 62, 67, 72, and 77mm, preventing light from sneaking past the lens from behind the camera and degrading your image.
