The OpenRig Arca Base is a filmmaker's new best friend: from Camera Trainee to DOP. Rig any camera in seconds, with a range of extra options to expand into different use cases, all within a durable and dependable ecosystem. Rather than relying on dozens of baseplates, simply pick up the Arca Base today.

The second you pick up a new camera, the pain starts: finding out what parts work, what parts don't, and trying to damage-control how much expensive gear you'll have to throw away. Spare yourself the agony with the OpenRig Arca Base: a universal mounting system for any camera. Clip it into the OpenRig system and begin to build out the ultimate camera rig in minutes. Clean and easy to use, everyone will thank you for picking the OpenRig system - from your ACs to your accountant.

Universal Camera Mounting
Whether you're working with a hybrid stills camera or a full cine rig, the OpenRig system is designed to accommodate all cameras. The Arca Base comes with two 1/4" and one 3/8" screw, easily configured to any thread layout on your camera body. So if the budget falls through and your camera package changes, you won't have to redo all your prep. A flexible O-ring also keeps the screws captive when loosened, avoiding the frustrating hunt on the floor for dropped screws.

Smooth Setups
Need to go handheld, or grab a quick still? The OpenRig Arca Base lets you quickly detach the camera from your setup, and take it anywhere else. The winged-lever clamp can be loosened for a clean lift-off, and re-attached effortlessly.

Safety First
The Arca Base features a built-in safety, which engages with the Picatinny-style NATO rails on the OpenRig Rail to avoid sudden slips. If you want to just slide back-and-forth without triggering it every time, the safety can swing up and stay out of your way: simply push and twist the orange safety button.

Base for Expansion
If you just need a mount for your camera, then the Arca Base has you covered: bridging the OpenRig and your camera rig. For more specialist uses, we've got a range of extras to help make the most of your setup. Our Anti-Twist front lip helps keep your camera straight-shooting, or prop up your lens mount with our Lens Adapter Support. Add extra quick-release via an Arca Receiver, or bring your whole rig up to the 15mm LWS height standard via the range of Risers. The OpenRig system is full of possibilities - these are just some of them.

Part of the OpenRig System
Make rigging easier. With the OpenRig system from Bright Tangerine, you can learn one system, once - but have endless possibilities. Whether you need a run-and-gun rig for a documentary or a full cine build, the OpenRig system has the solution.

Compatibility
The OpenRig Arca Base is compatible with any camera: featuring removeable 1/4" and 3/8" screws for mounting to the base of all camera bodies. The Base can then be mounted to the Arca channel in the center of the OpenRig Rail for universal camera mounting
