Create a lightweight shoulder mount rig with follow focus and matte box for your RED KOMODO cinema camera that allows you to quickly go from a shoulder-mount rig to a gimbal-ready camera setup, with this SHAPE Shoulder Mount System with Matte Box & Follow Focus Kit for RED KOMODO. The cage is the centerpiece, wrapping your camera in an external shell that allows you to attach accessories without straining the camera. The included top handle mounts on the cage, it is easy to adjust, and features multiple 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 mounting holes, as well as a tilting bracket suitable for adding accessories.
The included lightweight baseplate system consists of a dovetail plate that attaches to your camera. It mounts onto the system's dovetail adapter and allows you to quickly mount your camera into the baseplate, which has integrated 15mm rod clamps that the shoulder and back pad mount on to create the shoulder mount rig. The dovetail plate, attached to your camera, slides out of the baseplate system, leaving the camera without rods or shoulder pads and allowing it to mount on a Ronin 2 gimbal. The follow focus kit mounts on a single rod and has a variety of drive gears as well as a whip and speed crank. The matte box accepts two 4 x 5.65" filters and mounts onto 15mm LWS rods or clips onto your lens. Swapping the camera between the gimbal setup and shoulder mount system is fast, efficient, and requires no tools.
The SHAPE 15mm Lightweight Baseplate for RED KOMODO is a flexible system designed so you can easily swap your camera between a lightweight Ronin 2 gimbal system and a tripod-mounted system without having to swap baseplates. It features a dovetail plate, an adapter plate, and a lightweight baseplate with rod clamps. The dovetail adapter mounts onto the 15mm lightweight baseplate, and the dovetail plate mounts on your camera enabling you to move between your gimbal and your tripod.
The adapter plate features two 3/8"-16 threaded mounting holes with ARRI-style anti-twist divots, one on each side of the plate, that accept a variety of accessories as well as optional SHAPE ARRI-style rosette inserts for attaching handgrips for handheld use. The lightweight baseplate mounts on your tripod/tripod plate via 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded holes, and it has integrated 15mm LWS rod clamps for the included aluminum rods.

Use the compact SHAPE Follow Focus Kit with Single 15mm Rod Clamp with your camera setup to make focus pulling easy. The modular design allows you to add and remove any of the components without screws or tools, and its small profile allows the addition of a matte box or accessories around your lens.
At the core of the kit is a rubber, anti-slip follow focus wheel attached to a single aluminum 15mm rod clamp. The clamp rotates to adjust to most lens sizes, and it's tightened by a locking lever. The clamp's rotation also allows the focus wheel to easily swing out of the way when changing lenses.
Five drive gears are included to fit a variety of lens sizes: 0.5 MOD/78T, 0.6 MOD/64T, 0.8 MOD/38T, 0.8 MOD/43T, and 0.8 MOD/78T. The gears can be flipped from front to back to facilitate different lens configurations. A 49mm rubber friction wheel is also included for the 0.5 MOD/78T gear which is most commonly used with DSLR lenses.
For alternate fine-focus configurations, use the included speed crank or 11" whip, both of which attach to the center point of the knob. Four magnetic marking disks are included to attach to the focus wheel.
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 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.
