SmallRig 2896 Overview

Set up your rig for shoulder-mounted handheld shots with this Basic Shoulder Rig Kit from SmallRig. This durable shoulder mount is designed to stabilize your camera, provide comfort for long shooting days, and minimize rotation when shooting video with your DSLR, mirrorless, or small camera. It includes a baseplate with a 15mm rod clamp, two 12" long 15mm rods, a shoulder pad, and a dual handgrip kit.

The baseplate mounts your camera using its 1/4"-20 mounting screws and features a 15mm rod clamp, both helping support your small camera. The 1/4"-20 threads allow you to mount accessories or can easily convert to a tripod setup if needed. The dual handgrip kit assists with balance and comfort using its two 360° rotatable handgrips that mount onto the rods with a 15mm rod clamp. The 15mm LWS universal rod system allows you to customize your rig with accessories such as lights, monitors, microphones, wireless gear, or a follow focus.

I have 5 professional-3 stage tripods that take time to set up. I wanted something I could just grab to catch ENG clips. This was the right choice.
