Professional Camera Support System for Sony FX9
Transform your Sony FX9 into a production-ready powerhouse with the Wooden Camera Unified Accessory Kit (Base). This meticulously engineered package provides the essential foundation for building a stable, versatile, and efficient camera rig. Designed for professional cinematographers and owner-operators, this kit solves the challenge of mounting critical accessories by creating a cohesive and reliable support system that integrates seamlessly with your camera.
At the heart of the kit is the Unified Baseplate System, a quick-release platform that allows you to transition swiftly between tripod, handheld, and gimbal setups without rebuilding your rig. It correctly positions your camera at the standard lens height for 15mm rods, ensuring perfect alignment with matte boxes, follow focus systems, and lens motors. The included pair of 12-inch 15mm rods provides the structural support for these essential tools, giving you a robust foundation for cinematic focus pulls and light control.
The system's modularity continues with the custom-designed Top Plate (Sony FX9). This low-profile "cheese plate" fits securely around the camera's original top handle, blanketing the top of your FX9 with an array of 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 mounting points. These industry-standard threads, complete with ARRI anti-twist locating pins, are perfect for attaching on-camera monitors, wireless video transmitters, microphones, and other crucial accessories without stressing the camera's body. For enhanced ergonomics and handling, the included Top Handle V2 bolts directly to the top plate, providing a secure grip for carrying your entire rig, executing low-angle shots, and offering even more mounting points for a truly customized setup. This base kit is the starting point for a professional build that enhances stability, expands creative possibilities, and protects your camera investment on set.
