Bright Tangerine Base Kit for Canon C50 Camera

Striking the perfect blend of minimal bulk and maximum function, our Canon C50 Base Kit is the perfect choice for compact cine rigging. With built-in Arca compatibility and a wraparound cage covered in mounting points, this kit gives you everything you need for a clean and capable camera. Made from top-grade aluminum, the Base Kit is ideal for solo shooters or compact camera crews.

Whether you're still cold-emailing for your big break or a seasoned shooter, the Canon C50 Base Kit turns your compact cine camera into an impressive rig. Featuring our full wraparound cage - covered in accessory mounts for any shooting scenario - you can customize your C50 to your heart's content.

Quick-Release Convenience
For effortless setup, the Base Kit comes with a built-in Arca Swiss plate, compatible with any Arca receiver - the standard choice for filmmaking gear. If you want to ditch the bulk of baseplates and dovetails; all you need is the C50 Base Kit to go from handheld, tripods and gimbals in a heartbeat.

Get a Grip
The whole appeal of a compact cinema camera goes out the window when you need to bolt on bulky plates just to make it usable. We've struck a balance between the two: our Left Side Plate gives you extra clearance from the camera body itself, whilst the Right Side Plate is designed to match the C50's grip. This means you don't have to compromise on comfort or capability.

Clean Rigging
Of course, the main point of a cage is adding accessories to your rig - and in this instance, the C50 Base Kit really spoils you. Choose from your classic bolt-on mounts via 1/4" and 3/8" screw threads - each with anti-twist pin threads - or alternative mounts including MAP M4 points, QD sockets and integrated NATO rails.

Top Performance
There's nothing worse than an unreliable mount: the discomfort of watching your expensive hardware wobble in place, no matter how hard you tighten it. Our C50 NATO Top Plate not only keeps your gear secure - with anti-twist points for each screw thread and easy-press safety stops on the NATO rail - but also mounts securely to the camera itself via the 1/4" handle mounting points.

Easily Handled
But using this Base Kit doesn't mean you have to go completely without a Top Handle. The included Short Create Top Handle may not have the electronic inputs of the C50, but it is low-profile and ergonomic; with a built-in rubber inlay for a comfortable grip. Quickly slide the handle on-and-off the Top Plate via the built-in NATO Rail.

No Unexpected Twists
For productions where precision is essential, the C50 Bottom Plate won't let you down. Our anti-twist lip on the front keeps the camera firmly aligned, cutting out the guesswork as to whether you've installed everything correctly. If your battery gives up on you mid-shoot, the Bottom Plate gives you clear access to swap it out.

Compact Clearance
A lot of cages for compact cameras trade customization options for easy access to the camera functions themselves. We've struck a balance between the two: with the Left Side Plate offering space between the C50 body and the main part of the Side Plate. This gives you space to access the various inputs on the C50, as well as easy space for attaching the included C50 HDMI Clamp so that you never lose signal.

Flip the Script
Vertical is king these days, so if the client is calling for 9:16 rather than 16:9, our C50 Right Side Plate can accommodate. Simply mount the camera in portrait via the central 3/8" screw thread: ideal for dovetail plates like our Universal Dovetail.

Part of the Canon C50 System
Build a rig that can fit in your pocket with the Bright Tangerine Canon C50 range: with an array of carefully designed and convenient mounting options.

Compatibility
The Canon C50 Base Kit is designed for the Canon C50 alone, with a selection of purpose-built accessories contouring to the shape and inputs of the camera. The Base Kit features a built-in Arca plate in the Bottom Plate, for quick-release compatibility with any standard Arca receiver.


- NATO Short Create Top Handle -
The Short Create Top Handle provides all the functionality of a standard top handle for more compact rigs. Mounting via a side-facing NATO clamp, the Top Handle offers versatile positioning and customization options with a range of 1/4", 3/8" and MAP M4 screw threads. Low-profile for use on smaller rigs, the Top Handle has a rubber grip for a more comfortable hold.

Compact Design
The Short Create Top Handle is shorter both in height and in length (126mm long and 63mm high), creating a sleeker camera setup. This means that it sits lower to its mounting point for a smaller overall footprint for your rig. It can still be extended with our range of Master Handle Extensions, if needed.

NATO Base
The Short Create Top Handle Mounts via a NATO clamp, positioned at a 90-degree angle to allow sideways travel on any standard NATO rail. Simply lock the clamp in place when you're happy with the positioning. The Top Handle's NATO clamp has a spring-loaded mechanism that offers tactile feedback when it is positioned on the cage's exact center - for optimal balance.

And for additional accessory mounting, use the integrated NATO Rail or Filler Piece covered in accessory threads to quickly and conveniently build out your rig.
