Love my ACT !
Got mine right when Zacuto released it for my BlackMagic and Canon cameras and love how versatile and easy it is to use, setup and tear down to pack into my bag. Works great with their cages and love the Arca Swiss quick release!
The Sony FS7 Recoil with Dual Trigger Grips is a shoulder rig designed specifically for the Sony FS7 camera. This is a Next Generation Recoil rig designed for optimal balance and comfort when shoulder mounted or on a tripod. With lenses and cameras being similar weights, the balance point is where the lens meets the camera body. In a shoulder mount rig, the balance point needs to be directly over your shoulder which puts the camera behind you. The Recoil rig adjusts for that balance point and relocates focus, monitoring and camera controls forward, creating a lighter, shorter and properly balanced rig. The Sony FS7 Recoil Pro V2 shoulder-mounted rig includes our VCT Pro baseplate, the FS7 Trigger Grip to relocate the Sony FS7 handgrip, a LANC extension cable and our Axis Mini for Sony FS7.
VCT Pro Baseplate
The VCT Pro baseplate is compatible with all cameras including Canon EOS C-series, Sony FS5/FS5 Mark II and FS7/FS7 Mark II, AJA CION, BlackMagic, Panasonic EVA1, Panasonic Varicam LT, RED cameras, Arri Alexa and Amira, DSLRs, Mirrorless and more The VCT Pro has a built-in, curved shoulder pad and an Arri M6 rosette for accessories and grips. It comes with quick-release, extendable 6.5" rods at the front and lightweight spaced quick-release rod ports at the back. The v-wedge tripod connector is compatible with VCT14 tripod adapter plates or use the 1/4 20 and 3/8 16 screw holes for direct connect to your tripod quick release plate.
The red sliding top plate offers easy adjust-ability for lens changes, removing your camera and balancing your rig correctly on your shoulder. This sliding plate combined with a double screw track offers 10" of camera balance sliding range. You can quickly release your camera from the rig by sliding the red plate completely off and using our VCT Pro Dock to quickly transition it to a tripod, slider, etc. The lightweight, adjustable rod mount is set far back in the plate, offering plenty of accessory-capable area under the camera lens. This allows you to position your camera further back on the plate, keeping the balance point of your rig directly over your shoulder. The sliding track of the rod riser offers 25mm of vertical adjustment.
The shoulder pad portion of the VCT Universal is set as far forward on the plate as possible, also to maximize your accessory capable rod area and aid with balance. The VCT Universal Baseplate is the core of our Next Generation Recoil rigs, designed for balance and comfort for every camera. Keeping the camera low prevents already tall cameras from being too top heavy. With our VCT, the distance from the bottom of your camera to your shoulder is just 3/4 inch.
FS7 Dual Trigger Grips
The Sony FS7 Dual Trigger Grips is a dual handgrip system that relocates the Sony FS7 camera grip to a comfortable hand grip position for shoulder rigs and gives you a sleek comfortable wooden handgrip on the left side. The Dual Trigger Grip system slides onto 15mm lightweight rods. Our trigger grips are the most adjustable grips available. They allow for single-handed 360deg. rotation with the simple press of a trigger. The two handles rotate independently of each other. Flip them down for a low, rock-solid handgrip. Raise it up for more of an Aaton style position. Or quickly flip them both all the way up to set your camera flat on the ground or for storing in a case. Or stagger them if that is more comfortable to you. The length of the handgrips can also adjust by loosening a red lever and pulling the grip out or pushing in.
Axis Mini for Sony FS7
The Axis Mini for Sony FS7 and Sony FS7 II is the most adjustable ENG style mount for the Sony FS7 Monitor, giving you full 360 deg. motion with four adjustment points. Designed to attach to the FS7 Rod Lock, it leaves plenty of room at the lens for focusing and will work with the widest of lenses. It can easily be adjusted with one hand while the rig is on your shoulder. The Axis Mini has extensive articulation for use in a variety of positions, both shoulder mounted in a Next Generation Recoil or in tripod operating position. It is very small and quick to install and remove.
The Axis Mini for Sony FS7 and Sony FS7 II attaches to your rig via the included FS7 Rod Lock, which attaches to the FS7 body in front of the Sony top handle. Slide the Axis Mini into the extra 15mm rod port on the FS7 Rod Lock and clamp into place. The Axis Mini for FS7 attaches to the Sony monitor via a secure rosette mount adapter. The Axis Mini has three red tension levers that are controlled independently with 360 degree motion. Release all three levers to completely reposition the mount or release just one to make single segment adjustments. You can dial in the exact amount of tension needed at each lever to adjust on the fly. Just grab and move.
