I have used countless camera accessories over the years, but this Cheesplate for RED KOMODO & KOMODO-X is in a league of its own. The engineering is flawless, the ergonomics are unmatched, and the attention to detail is simply breathtaking. Every hole, every edge, every mounting point feels as though it has been designed with absolute precision and a deep understanding of a filmmaker's needs. It not only integrates perfectly with the camera body, but also elevates the entire rig's usability and aesthetic. This is not just a cheeseplate-it is a statement of what great design can achieve. Strong, lightweight, beautifully machined, and with functionality that inspires confidence on set. It's rare to see something so thoughtfully made, and I truly believe this is the gold standard in accessory design. When I mount this cheesplate, it feels like fitting the final, perfect piece into a timeless camera sculpture. Under studio lights or in the quiet breath of a night exterior, its form and function dissolve into the language of the shot-silent, precise, and always present. It's the kind of design that disappears into the craft, allowing the lens to drink in the world without distraction. This is not merely a tool, but a companion in storytelling-steady in my hands, invisible in the frame, and indispensable in the journey from vision to image.

A great item with two unique QD mounts. A must-have for the Red Komodo.

It's the perfect do it all baseplate. Also the look and feel to it is amazing and high end. A strong recommendation!

The build quality is fantastic. My only complaint is that the sliding dovetail doesn't really need to be there and adds an extra clumsy lever that gets in the way. I would love it more if the bottom of this was just the BP-9 spacing for an Arri dovetail. Either remove the extra sliding plate at the bottom or you could make that lever smaller and less in the way.

This might actually be better built than the original RED accessories and expansion modules.

Let the Run/Stop Top Rail Plate for RED KOMODO elevate your filming experience by offering a NATO compatible top plate with Run/Stop connectivity. This sturdy and reliable accessory is designed to seamlessly integrate with your RED Komodo camera, enhancing its functionality when used with FIZ, handgrips, or gimbals.
The plate's design allows for the attachment of the RED Outrigger handle on top, creating a wire-free Run/Stop connection using the pogo pins. This feature eliminates the need for a separate breakout or I/O box, contributing to a minimal and efficient build.
The Run/Stop Top Rail Plate is not just durable but also versatile. It offers a secure mounting point for top handles and other NATO based accessories, making it an invaluable addition to your camera rig. The plate is equipped with a 3-pin Fischer port, providing Run/Stop support for compatible accessories like handgrips and FIZ controllers.
When it comes to rigging, the Run/Stop Top Rail Plate offers a variety of options. You can choose from threaded, NATO, and QD points, or any combination you need. All threaded points are reinforced with stainless-steel helicoils for added strength, preventing thread stripping or binding-an essential feature when frequently changing rig configurations.
The Top Rail can be used with the NATO top handle, 15mm top bar bracket, or any other standard NATO accessories. It also provides mounting points for the LeftField range of adapter supports, making it a high-quality and versatile choice for your RED KOMODO camera system.
