About the Zacuto VCT Pro Baseplate
The VCT Pro camera baseplate is compatible with EVERY camera including Canon EOS C300, C400, C500, Sony FX6, FS7/FS7 Mark II and Sony FX9, AJA CION, BlackMagic, Panasonic EVA1, Panasonic Varicam LT, RED cameras, Arri Alexa, DSLRs, Mirrorless and more. This is the best shoulder mounted baseplate in the industry.

The VCT Pro has a built-in, curved shoulder pad and an Arri M6 rosette for accessories and grips. It comes with quick-release, extendable 6.5” rods at the front, and lightweight spaced quick-release rod ports at the back. The v-wedge tripod connector is compatible with VCT14 tripod adapter plates or the 1/4 20 and 3/8 16 screw holes for direct connection to your tripod quick release plate.

The red sliding top plate offers easy adjust-ability for lens changes, removing your camera, and balancing your rig correctly on your shoulder. This sliding plate combined with a double screw track offers 10” of camera balance sliding range. You can quickly release your camera from the rig by sliding the red plate completely off and using the VCT Pro Dock to quickly transition it to a tripod, slider, etc. You can also quickly rotate your camera to shoot 9:16 vertical video with the addition of the Rotator.

The lightweight, adjustable rod mount is set far back in the plate, offering plenty of accessory-capable area under the camera lens. This allows you to position your camera further back on the plate, keeping the balance point of your rig directly over your shoulder. The sliding track of the rod riser offers 25mm of vertical adjustment.

The shoulder pad portion of the VCT Pro is set as far forward on the plate as possible, also to maximize your accessory capable rod area and aid with balance. The VCT Universal Baseplate is the core of the Next Generation Recoil rigs, designed for balance and comfort for every camera.

Keeping the camera low prevents already tall cameras from being too top heavy. With the VCT, the distance from the bottom of your camera to your shoulder is just 3/4 inch.
