We are working on a shoulder rig that will have an ARRI dovetail on top and ARRI rosette grips. It should be available later this year. For now, there are some offerings from Wooden Camera that do a similar thing.

Glad to hear it!

Thanks! We're working on an Upper Cage-style solution for DSLR bodies which would include the R5C. It should be available by the end of the year :)

Our team is made up of several former Wooden Camera folks :)

We could make a shoe-based mount to put it on the side rail. Something like a female cold shoe to a NATO clamp, but it would need to be at a 90º angle. It is about 1/3 the size of the camera though so it will add quite a bit of bulk anywhere it goes.

We are making some versions for ARRI 3/8-16 and 1/4-20 with locating pins, ARRI rosette, and an L bracket. What model do you have exactly?

@@mid49films i have the 503 ultrabright. It's a pain to rig but i have a solution. yours would be much more elegant and practical

@@the_keystone_kid That monitor, in particular, is hard to rig from the right side where all the connections are. It would really be better to mount from another side since the cables also exit toward the camera.

@@mid49filmscould you make one for the smallhd smart 5 series? I have the Cine 5 and would love to ditch Noga arms for certain configurations

@@umanaf We will be releasing some versions with ARRI 1/4-20, ARRI 3/8-16, and ARRI Rosette. It looks like the ARRI 1/4-20 would work for the Smart 5.

Check the reviews for a full picture of some users' experiences. So far, this unit has worked well. www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1679650-REG/tascam_ca_xlr2d_c_xlr_mic_adapter_for.html

Thank you! When we're back from IBC in a week, we're going to finalize the Blackmagic power distribution, and it will have a similar interface :)

Thanks for your input!

The distance from the top handle rod clamp to the center of the lens is about 100mm where the baseplate standard is 85mm. If you need to mount a single rod, check out the ARRI Rosette to 15mm Rod Clamp which is almost exactly the same distance to the lens as a baseplate rod: www.mid49.com/products/arri-rosette-to-15mm-rod-clamp

I'm glad you like it! I am curious about what is possible out of the USB monitor port and if Canon will be releasing new monitor options that would use it. A 5-inch monitor would be amazing.

Thank you!

I agree. I own the Tascam and always use it while holding my breathe (reliability concerns). Hard to imagine Canon is creating hotshoe tophandle pass-through functionality just for this device. I'm holding out hope that other accessories are coming soon.

​@@sethcoogan I think it's just new as a mount and Canon just doesn't make as many accessories as Sony does. That being said, Canon puts great pre amps in their cameras and has a history of powerful expansion units including small audio units that used to sit on the top of the camera. I think the unifying the expansion hotshoe across their cameras is a good call but it's also not that different than Sony who while they have the same multi function hot shoe on a ton of cameras I know a lot of operators who never use them and literally only recently has a third party ever made a compatible device (thanks dji!). The C400 has hidden expansion ports that might mean expansion backs like the C300/C500 in the future. So while it remains to be seen, I think that having the multi function shoe will allow for new accessories, hoping for more in the future.

It would, including R/S capability! We have a few photos of that configuration with a MAVO mark2. Please send us an email and we'll send them over: [email protected]

It does fit the C400 as well!

We are making a simplified EVF mount with a pivoting knuckle on a NATO rail attached to a 15mm rod. It will be very adjustable and some renderings should be posted soon.

@@mid49films amazing, I really find Canon’s solution a bit messy and really appreciate the simplified way Sony does it. But your solution sounds great too, will look into it!

Thanks for pointing this out, they are fixed!

We are :)

On the original Komodo, phantom power is not available, so you'd need a self-powered microphone. The AB-3 is a passive adapter.

@@mid49films okay thanks! Can you guys make a trigger button or so? I just phrchased your too handle kit. I love what you guys are doing, innovating all the parts for a better workflow 🤝🏻

@@JesusMartinezCreates We are doing more with trigger options later this year and will likely offer some type of bolt-on option.

You can certainly do that. The LANC cable would plug into the remote port on the FX6 as well.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thanks!

We're working on a DSLR cage that will work for that camera, expected to launch this summer. Thanks!

We’ll have the cables up on our site for preorder middle of April and plan to start shipping them early May.

Thanks for asking! We recently launched the Right Side Bracket that goes with this cage and it can be seen here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/kGStcmBnfrGGj8U

Thank you!

Thank you for your support!

Thanks for your support! We are working on a VCT option for the Baseline series that would act like a built-in shoulder pad but could also be quickly removed.

We're working on it :)

Hi- We founded WC in 2011, joined Vitec in 2016, and left in 2021. We had new ideas for products and founded MID49, a separate, new company. Thanks!

Thanks for your support, it ships today!

You could probably mount the RED adapter on the 3/8-16 hole toward the front of the Side Plate, but there is a chance the XLR cable ends might collide with the EB-1.

@@mid49films that’s what I thought. Too bad :( is there a store in LA where I could test out the cage instead of buying it and then sending it back if it doesn’t work?

@@RicoStein_ AbelCine in Burbank is in the process of stocking our products but I do not believe they have demo models yet. Please send us an email and we can try to get something set up for you! [email protected]

@@mid49films Thanks!

Hello, please check the end of this install guide for range of motion info. It cannot be completely positioned vertically. kzbin.info/www/bejne/kJfTgYunn9ZspLMsi=pYobczBUtf2K7-NO&t=323

Thanks so much! We’re glad you like it!

@@mid49films it’s amazing! Thanks for making it!

We can do that! Please send us and email [email protected]
