The compact, lightweight ARRI Compact Bridge Plate CBP-5 is designed for use with the ALEXA 35 cinema camera and provides a sliding bridge plate and a shoulder pad. The bridge plate mounts onto the BUD-1 utility dovetail, and its sliding function provides balance and support, especially when using long lenses. The quick release system has been improved from previous bridge plate models, and it also allows lifting the camera straight off the dovetail. It features 19mm Studio rod ports and supports both 15mm LWS and 19mm studio rods as an option.
