The Shape Red Mamouth II is a camera support unit incorporating the individual RM Shoulder Rig, Arm1 Telescopic Support Arm, Hand5 Quick Handle and Pad1 Back Pad accessories and has a sturdy design. Comfortable positioning is offered via a high camera platform raised 3/4" above your shoulder tip. A durable and strong design allows you to use the Red Mamouth II for cameras weighing up to 50 lb. A 3" wide camera platform is used in the camera support unit and is fabricated from 3/16" aluminum.
Forming a core component of the Red Mamouth II camera support is the RM Shoulder Rig that provides easy adjustment to fit different body types and needs, all via convenient knobs. You can position the camera by attaching it to the camera support via a standard 1/4-20 camera screw and a standard 3/8-20 camera screw knob. Positioning the Back Pad, Counter Weight, or Telescopic Support Arm is possible to fit your body type, along with easy removal capability.

You can use the shoulder rig on either shoulder.
You can achieve augmented stability and versatility for the camera support using the Arm1 Telescopic Support Arm. A Manfrotto 233B Camera Mount Bracket with a 4" cup provides large surface contact area. You can extend the Telescopic Support Arm from a length of 14-20", thus achieving higher reach. Rotation of 360deg. along both, vertical and horizontal, axes is possible via the rotating arm. You can place the cup on a stable surface such as your waist, hip, thigh, or a nearby wall, or on the ground.
The Hand5 Quick Handle is a professional video stabilization accessory with 2 camera handles, each providing an individual rotation angle of 360deg.. You can attach the handle to the camera platform using a simple screw knob. A 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.
The Pad1 Back Pad can be attached to the shoulder rig via a screw knob. Augmented camera support stability and comfort is offered by the back pad that is padded on one side and weighs 0.35 lb. You can adjust the positioning of the back pad in accordance to your body type with a vertical adjustment range of 1-1/4" and a horizontal adjustment spanning 360Deg. A screw knob allows easy attachment and removal of the back pad from the support.
With a 1/4-20 threaded hole, the back pad supports attachment of the Shape Box and other accessories.
