That mounting point does not exist on ARRI PCA Mechanical Accessories. However, you can use the SHAPE Controller Top Handle with Universal Attachment System. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1554263-REG/shape_ctrl_controller_for_top_handle.html

Does this top handle have a hot shoe connector at it's base? If so, how does it work if the XLR1 adapter is connected to the camera's hot shoe?
Asked by: Jonathan
Hello Jon, Thank you for your question! This top handle was designed so it can be attached at the top front of cages when audio units are also used. It leaves enough space to attach an audio unit on top of cages. This handle does not have a hotshoe connector. You can see an example of how it's used here: https://www.shapewlb.com/sony-a7s-ii-a7r-ii-a7-ii-top-handle. We hope this helps and we thank you for your interest in our products. The SHAPE team
