New Chrosziel Light Weight Support Shoulder Mount for Sony FS5 Camera
Schneider Optics announces that Chrosziel GmbH, maker of professional cine and digital accessories, introduces a purpose-built shoulder mount solution for Sony PXW-FS5 cameras. The new Light Weight Support (LWS) 401-FS5 provides optimum balance of the camera when handheld.
The new baseplate features a slim design with a sturdy and ergonomic shoulder pad that simply slides into a comfortable location for optimal balance on the shoulder. The system also offers (2) 205mm long 15mm rods, with a threaded insert for extension rods. The integrated Hirth rosettes provide mounting points for accessories such as Chrosziel Leather Handgrips. An integrated V-mount reliably affixes the camera to most quick-lock plates.
The LWS mounts to the camera base at several points for secure positioning. It can also be combined with the Chrosziel 19mm DigiCine Bridgeplate 401-F235, to provide support for large zoom lenses. Chrosziel’s LWS 401-FS7 provides similar functionality to the Sony PXW-FS7 camera.
The LWS 401-FS5 is now shipping. Chrosziel products are manufactured in Germany and distributed in the United States by Schneider Optics. For more information contact rayers@schneideroptics.com, or visit www.schneideroptics.com
