The Essential C80 Setup
The Create Canon C80 Base Kit gives you everything you need to get started with your C80. The combination of the Universal Dovetail on the base of the camera and the Top Plate on the top gives you freedom to rig your camera however you may need; with accessory mounting options and compatibility with industry-standard formats.
One Dovetail, Endless Options
Our Universal Dovetail is the only dual-compatible dovetail for both DJI RS 4 gimbal plates and Manfrotto 501PL tripods, which means that you can seamless switch between gimbal and tripod shooting. The design offers sliding travel to help balance your setup, meaning that your C80 will be prepped for everything. From nimble gimbal shooting to static tripod shots, reduce downtime with our multipurpose dovetail.
Top Plate Convenience
Where the Universal Dovetail adds freedom of placement for your camera, our C80 Top Plate offers freedom for what you place on the camera. The Top Plate provides a canvas for customization with 1/4" and 3/8" anti-twist points; as well as MAP M4 points, a Cold Shoe mount, QD sockets and 15mm rod support. Securely mounted from three points, the Top Plate is a firm foundation for rigging.
Full Functionality
With the Create Canon C80 Base Kit, we've worked to keep full access to the stock C80's features. With our Top Plate covering the intended C80 top handle slot, the included NATO Mount repurposes the top handle for use on a NATO rail, so you can quickly install or adjust your handle on the move. We've also offered alternate placements for the C80's film plane hook and microphone shockmount - meaning you don't have to choose between freedom and function.
Part of the Canon C80 System
Our range of Canon C80 accessories provide new customization options for creatives of any skill level. From convenient mounting options to comprehensive camera cages, choose Bright Tangerine to maximize the potential of your Canon camera setup.
Compatibility
The Create Canon C80 Base Kit is compatible with the Canon C80, with a purpose-built Top Plate and NATO Mount for the stock C80 top handle. The Universal Dovetail, however, is compatible with a range of other cameras and can be repurposed. The Dovetail is also compatible with Manfrotto 501PL heads and DJI RS 4 gimbal plates, making it compatible with most industry-standard mounting points.

NATO Freedom
NATO rails offer freedom of positioning on a two-dimensional plane: sliding forwards-backwards or left-to-right before being locked in place. With our NATO Mount, that freedom extends to your Top Handle. Combine the NATO Mount with our dedicated C80 Top Plate, for freedom of positioning on the left-to-right axis to find the right balance.
The NATO Mount will make a soft "click" when centered, making it easy to know when your setup is balanced.
- Canon C80 Top Plate -
The Canon C80 Top Plate adds a range of accessory mounting options to your camera. A three-point mounting system secures the Top Plate in place, and the plate provides a range of accessory mounting options without obstructing the C80's native inputs.
Featuring an integrated NATO rail as well as a dedicated mount for the Canon C80 Side Rib, the Canon C80 Top Plate can be used standalone or as part of a complete cage.
Features
Accessory Mounting - The Top Plate features a range of accessory mounts including 1/4", 3/8", MAP M4, Cold Shoe and QD sockets
Integrated NATO Rail - The C80 Top Plate has a front NATO rail integrated into the design
15mm Rod Bracket - Attach 15mm rods via the integrated bracket
Secure Mounting - The Top Plate uses a three-point mounting system to firmly attach to the C80
Relocated Mounts - The Top Plate offers alternative positioning for the C80 Film Plane Hook and Microphone Shockmount
Enhance your filmmaking setup with the Canon C80 Top Plate, which offers new freedom of customization for your Canon camera. The Top Plate offers a range of accessory mounts including 1/4", 3/8" and MAP M4 threads; as well as QD sockets, a NATO rail and an integrated 15mm rod bracket.
Using a three-point mounting system for added stability, the C80 Top Plate is a lightweight yet essential addition to your C80 setup.
Locked In
The C80 Top Plate attaches to your camera at three points for added security. Alongside the central flathead screw, there are two screws - marked by padlocks - that help keep your Top Plate firmly in place. Though one of them does slot into the C80's Film Plane Hook, we've got a dedicated slot on the Top Plate itself that means you can still use it for precise measurements.
In-Depth Customization
But a Top Plate on its own isn't very useful: it's what you add to the top plate that matters. For that, our C80 Top Plate comes jam-packed with accessory mounts. Alongside 1/4" and 3/8" screw threads, there are also MAP M4 and QD sockets - and a Cold Shoe mount for microphones or other accessories.
The bar across the front of the Top Plate has an integrated NATO rail, and the front has a 15mm rod console. There are also dedicated mounts for the microphone shockmount and for attaching the Canon C80 Side Rib.
Ideal for Compact Rigs
The C80 Top Plate has been designed to perfectly complement the Canon C80's small footprint. It provides a flat and spacious plane for customization whilst maintaining the core C80 shape and minimizing bulk. The integrated NATO rail provides tactile feedback for centrally-aligned accessories, such as the Short Create Top Handle (NATO).
