SHAPE Creator Camera Cage Shoulder Mount Kit for Nikon ZR

This Creator Camera Cage from SHAPE provides an adaptable foundation for building out a complete Nikon ZR cinema rig while preserving functionality. CNC-machined from aluminum, the cage secures to the ZR via a 1/4"-20 mounting screw and locking block and wraps around the camera's circumference for reinforced protection and mounting flexibility. Multiple anti-twist 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded holes with ARRI-style locating patterns support the attachment of monitors, wireless receivers, articulating arms, and other production accessories.

Built-in NATO rails on the top and side enable fast, tool-free mounting of compatible handles and clamps, while the top-mounted cold shoe accommodates microphones, compact lights, or wireless units. The cage incorporates an Arca-Swiss quick release plate that can be attached to the base or side for rapid transitions between tripods, gimbals, and handheld operation, with full compatibility for DJI RS3-series stabilizers. An integrated micro-HDMI and USB-C cable clamp with thumbscrews prevents accidental disconnection during shooting, and the design maintains unobstructed access to the ZR's hot shoe, controls, ports, memory card slots, and battery compartment.

The Shape Quick Handle + Rod Block is a professional video stabilization accessory with 2 camera handles, each providing an individual rotation angle of 360°. You can attach the handle to the camera platform using a simple screw knob. A simple push button located at the articulation allows easy attachment and removal.

Combined with the anodized aluminum Rod Block, the Quick Handle offers composite camera support for all 15mm rods. You can achieve precise positioning by sliding the Quick Handle along the rods and tightening the small red knob located on the Rod Block. With 2 screw-threaded holes, the Rod Block provides for attachment of components such as the Quick Handle.

The SHAPE Mini Composite Shoulder Pad is a comfort-padded and comfort-shaped shoulder pad for the back of your camera rig. Outfitted with a 15mm-mount SHAPE Rod Block, the pad attaches right onto a pair of 15mm rods, slides into the best position on them, and tightens in place by a quality lever. It also has a black Screw Knob under which you can add a SHAPE Counter Weight or a SHAPE Back Pad, both optional and both back-supported accessories that work as extensions of the shoulder pad. The Screw Knob's screw is a 1/4"-20 screw. If you remove the Screw Knob, you'll have yourself a 1/4"-20 screw-hole to add various 1/4"-20-mount accessories into.

The Back Pad from SHAPE is a standard rig component included with most SHAPE camera rigs. Its design features a powder coated anodized aluminum plate and arm which are attached to a thick padding on the side facing the user. The pad is easy to both attach and remove from your rig, and it supports the SHAPE BOX attachment. Additionally, the pad's position can be adjusted to the user's preference – up to 2" vertically and 360° horizontally.

This pair of 15mm Aluminum Rods from SHAPE connects to your camera rig, extending it and letting you add compatible accessories. With these two rods and a few fundamental accessories, you can begin building your own rig from scratch.

The rods are each 15mm in diameter, 18" long, hollow, non-threaded, and made of reliable aluminum with a silver finish.
