Bright Tangerine Canon C300 MK III Camera Base Kit, Includes Baseplate, Left Field Sliding Top Plate, LA-V1 Bracket Adapter

When it comes to professional video and cinema production, the Canon C300 MK III Camera Base Kit by Bright Tangerine is an essential tool for filmmakers and videographers seeking a durable, high-quality, and versatile support system. This comprehensive kit is specifically designed to enhance the functionality of the Canon EOS C300 Mark III, providing a sturdy base for both handheld and tripod-based shooting scenarios.

The core of this kit is the robust baseplate, engineered with the patented Open UP Quick Release system. This innovative feature ensures a secure mount to any ARRI Standard dovetail, including those that are out of tolerance, facilitating swift transitions between various camera setups. Whether you're moving from a tripod to handheld shooting or vice versa, the Left Field ARRI Dovetail Plate or any standard ARRI dovetail will accommodate your needs with ease. The baseplate's strategic design allows for the camera to be precisely positioned on the dovetail to achieve optimal balance, crucial for steady and professional footage.

In addition to its quick-release capabilities, the baseplate is equipped with front and rear rod locks, supporting 15mm LWS industry-standard rods. This dual-lock system enables the use of two shorter rod sets to create a longer support structure, offering a more compact and transportable solution without compromising stability. The baseplate's three-stage lever mechanism allows for vertical release, sliding, and secure locking, while the dual safety mechanism prevents accidental detachment.

The kit also includes a versatile sliding top plate, featuring an ARRI dovetail standard clamp that provides a quick release for the Left Field ARRI Dovetail Plate. This plate is not only designed for mounting the top carrying handle but also for other accessories, which can be swiftly attached and adjusted for perfect balance. A 15mm LWS rod bracket mounted to the top plate expands the possibilities for attaching lens motors or other accessories like an EVF bracket, making it particularly useful for drone and gimbal operations.

For added convenience, the kit comes with a top handle that offers multiple mounting points for additional accessories. The handle's design allows for adjustable positioning along the horizontal bar and can be rotated 180 degrees to suit the operator's preference. It is also compatible with the ARRI HEB-System for an extended handling surface.

Lastly, the Canon LA-V1 monitor bracket adapter is included to provide a flexible mounting point for the Canon LM-V1 or LM-V2 touchscreen monitors. This adapter can be attached to any 3/8" or ARRI accessory mount, enabling you to position the monitor in the most ergonomic location for your shooting style.

Crafted from a single block of aluminum, the Canon C300 MK III Camera Base Kit is built to withstand the rigors of professional use in the most extreme environments. This kit is not only a testament to Bright Tangerine's commitment to quality but also an indispensable asset for filmmakers who demand the best in camera support and accessory integration.
