Wooden Camera's Pro Accessory Kit lets you deck out your Blackmagic Design Cinema Camera or Production Camera 4K for studio shooting and prepare it for handheld. The kit is based off the Quick Cage which, through the integrated quick release baseplate, can be easily secured and removed from the included 15mm rods. For power, a battery slide for attaching professional battery plates is included. Use the A-box to convert the unconventional 1/4" microphone inputs on the Blackmagic camera to standard XLR. Atop the cage, secure the UVF Mount to the NATO Handle to hold an EVF or on-camera monitor. With the included Dovetail Clamp and 12" Safety Dovetail, you can balance nearly any lens, camera, and accessory combination on a tripod. Plus, the Dovetail Clamp can be secured to Wooden Camera's shoulder rigs for an easy, yet secure, handheld solution. See below for more information on the individual items included in this kit.
The Wooden Camera Quick Cage with 15mm Lightweight Rod Clamp turns the Blackmagic Cinema Camera into a production-ready tool. It attaches to the camera with the help of 2 screws on the top and 1 locating pin and screw on the bottom, making the setup secure. The sleek and functional design leaves all of the camera's vital features easily accessible, such as the SSD door, LCD touch screen, and input/output ports. The cage frame contours to the body without adding any width. It keeps the controls at your fingertips like the REC button at the right index finger and Focus and Iris at your thumbs.
This cage includes a lightweight 15mm support baseplate.
This is a single, 15" long 15mm Support Rod from Wooden Camera for mounting accessories. It is chamfered at each end to ease sliding accessories on and off, and has a hollow interior providing for maximum strength.
This Wooden Camera NATO Handle Kit , consisting of a quick-release top handle and 3.9" (100mm) NATO rail, offers a variety of mounting points for attaching viewfinders, focus motors, lights, shock mounts, and other accessories.
The handle features a sideways 15mm rod port, 15mm rod opening in front, 19mm rod opening in the rear, shoe mount, and 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 mounting threads all around. The sideways 15mm rod port is ideal for attaching Wooden Camera's UVF Mount or other viewfinder mounts. Two 1/4"-20 socket screws are included for binding rods in the front and rear rod openings.
The NATO rail can be attached to any two 1/4"-20 threads positioned up to 72mm apart, such as on a cage or select cameras. The handle conveniently slides on and off and secures in place by a lever. A rotating knob on top allows the handle to be adjusted sideways or reversed to the rear by a rosette-like mechanism.
Made specifically for the Blackmagic Cinema Camera, this Wooden Camera A-Box allows you to adapt two balanced XLR male connectors to the camera via two right-angle 1/4" balanced female connectors. It comes with a 1.5", bolt-on 19mm rod that has a threaded hole allowing attachment to 1/4"-20 threaded mounting holes.
The Wooden Camera 15mm Adapter Bushing allows you to adapt 19mm accessories to 15mm rod standards.
The Wooden Camera 15mm Rod Clamp attaches to 15mm rods to add 1/4"-20 screw-holes to your camera rig. Among the variety of accessories that can be mounted to these screw-holes is Wooden Camera's QB Battery Back Plate. This plate comes in different versions, each designed to have a different type of battery plate and ultimately battery attached to it. With these attached, the QB Battery Back Plate can be mounted right onto the screw-holes of the Rod Clamp. The ability to attach so is especially useful when you have no way of mounting a battery directly onto your camera and as an alternative are looking for a way to get the battery near the camera (so you can connect the two).
The Battery Slide from Wooden Camera is an adjustable mounting system for V-Mount, Gold Mount, QRC Gold Mount, and RED/BLUESHAPE battery plates. Multiple rows of pass-through holes allow the attachment of rod clamps, cheese plates, and other accessories.
In order to adjust the plate's position, the user only needs to apply firm pressure to tilt it into place. Sliding the plate into position is facilitated by an adjustable thumbscrew. Both these movements make the plate ideal for adjusting counterbalance and transitioning from studio to handheld position.
The Wooden Camera UVF Mount allows you to support an EVF or monitor from an available 15mm rod port on your rig. It is similar to the UVF v2 Mount but doesn't include a 15mm rod clamp. Instead, it is designed to be used with top handles or other on-camera hardware that have a rod clamp built-in. It features a NATO rail kit, UVF v2 sled, and L-bracket that combine to offer tilt, horizontal, and vertical adjustments for positioning your EVF or monitor.
The NATO rail kit consists of a 15mm rod with a 4" NATO rail attached. The rod portion slots into a sideways-oriented rod clamp on your top handle or rig, allowing for tilt and distance adjustment. The included UVF v2 sled slides onto the NATO rail, securing into place using a thumbscrew, and provides attachment points for the L-bracket. The Sled can also attach to any NATO-standard rail.
Your EVF or monitor attaches to the L-bracket, which supports devices with two 1/4"-20 screw holes spaced between 25mm and 36mm centre to centre. An adapter for using Alphatron, SmallHD, and other viewfinders with a single 1/4"-20 thread comes included. A safety pin at the end of the NATO rail prevents the mounting bracket and your monitor or EVF from accidental removal.
The Wooden Camera Dovetail Clamp allows you to attach cameras, baseplates, or accessories to an ARRI standard dovetail. It features slots at multiple locations for inserting mounting screws from underneath, and comes with two 3/8"-16 and two 1/4"-20 low profile screws.
The 12" Safety Dovetail Plate from Wooden Camera is an ARRI standard dovetail with a stopper screw on one end and a safety latch on the other to prevent accidental camera detachment. It features threaded 1/4-20 and 3/8-16 holes for accessory mounting and tripod attachment. The dovetail can be attached to a shoulder pad for custom handheld configurations.
Features
- 1/4-20 holes in standard spacing (9mm centre to centre)
- 3/8-16 holes in ARRI standard spacing (50mm centre to centre)
NATO Quick Release
The handle features an integrated NATO rail clamp that lets you slide onto any NATO compatible rail, not just the included one.
Rosette Based Rotating Grip
The handle position can be adjusted by loosening the top screw, rotating it into the desired position, and then re-tightening the top screw. This gives you a level of versatility you typically don't find in top handles.
Sideways 15mm Rod Clamp
The side rod opening lets you attach a 15mm rod perpendicular to your camera, great for attaching an optional monitor/EVF support bracket such as Wooden Camera's UVF Mount v2. A thumbscrew secures the rod in place.
Front/Rear Rod Openings
A forward facing 15mm rod opening and 19mm rear rod opening are available for attaching optional single rods, which can be used for mounting accessories such as focus motors. A pair of 1/4"-20 set screws are included to secure the rods in place via the threaded holes along the sides of the grip area.
Integrated Cold Shoe
A cold shoe built into the top of the handle lets you add on-camera lights, microphone shock mounts, or other shoe mount accessories.
Accessory Threads
1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded holes along the grip area of the handle are provided for attaching additional accessories.
Optional Front Rod Clamp
Two 1/4"-20 thread holes on the front of the handle let you attach an optional 15mm or 19mm rod clamp to the base of the handle.
