The Cavision Standard Shoulder Pad Package with Viewfinder allows you to use your Canon 5D Mk II or other DSLR in a manner that approximates the shoulder-mounted style of traditional videography. Shoulder-mounted operation will increase your endurance and reduces the jitter of your shooting, for smooth operation over long days on set or on location. The addition of the viewfinder allows finer control over critical focus and scene framing.
The included Cavision MHE52 Viewfinder magnifies the LCD image by 6x, employing a single glass element and comfortable rubber eyecup. The eyepiece is a similar size to those found on high-end digital cinema cameras. The combination of the quick release plate and the swing-away viewfinder connector piece allows you to remove the camera from the rig easily, enabling a quick switch from shoulder-mounted to handheld shooting. Included spacers allow for height adjustment to fit most DSLR cameras.
Two pistol-style handgrips attach to the front of the 12 standard 15mm rods. Because the Standard Shoulder Pad Package puts your camera on rods, it s easy to expand the system in case you want to add a follow-focus or matte box. The included spacers allow you to adjust the height of the MHE52 Viewfinder to your camera, allowing you to use this support with most DSLRs.
Shoulder pad is adjustable to fit different shoulder sizes, and features two tilt adjustments
Both handgrips offer swivel adjustment
Swing-away piece features horizontal and forward/backward adjustment, as well as swing-away function for easy access to buttons and camera viewfinder
