Description
The LeftField Canon C500 Mk II Expert Kit is the ultimate solution for Canon shooters looking to customise without compromise. With a selection of lightweight and durable camera accessories, the kit provides a platform for rigging: employing our Open•Up quick-release mechanism, as well as 15mm LWS support.
Featuring a range of accessory mounting options, the C500 Mk II Expert Kit allows you to optimise your camera rig, no matter the shooting scenario.
LeftField 3 Quick-Release
The LeftField Canon C500 Mk II Expert Kit features a LeftField 3 Baseplate which provides full compatibility with any ARRI standard dovetail – including the one featured in the kit. This makes it quick and convenient to mount your camera and transition from place to place. Whether you are shooting on a gimbal, a tripod or handheld (or all three); the LeftField 3 system will help minimise downtime.
15mm LWS Compatibility
The LeftField Baseplate also features two 15mm support rod brackets, for mounting in the 15mm LWS standard configuration, as well as two 12″ Drumstix support rods to use with it. An industry standard mounting system, the support rods allow for more accessory placement and help balance your rig. Add a follow-focus motor or matte box – among other accessories – for a more versatile camera setup.
Top Plate Convenience
On top of the camera, the dedicated Sliding Top Plate has a dovetail of its own: making it easy to remove the central element for adjustment without unscrewing the entire plate. There are also two additional 15mm support rod brackets on the top plate, ideal for gimbals and drone filmmaking.
Expanded Accessory Options
The Canon C500 Mk II Expert Kit also comes with a top handle, making the camera easier to carry handheld. Alongside the top plate and top handle’s accessory mounting threads, you also have two side plates for additional customisation. With an array of 1/4″-20 and 3/8″-16 screw threads on offer, you’re sure to find the space for whatever component you need.
Part of the LeftField 3 System
The LeftField 3 system of quick-release plates is designed to maximise compatibility between cameras, mounting to ARRI standard dovetails for secure placement but speedy removal. With a broad range of options available for different camera systems, you can find the perfect configuration no matter your camera or context for shooting.
This kit is updated to our LeftField 3 system from the now-discontinued LeftField 2. For a full compatibility breakdown, be sure to check our LeftField Compatibility Guide.
Compatibility
The LeftField Canon C500 Mk II Expert Kit is designed for use with the Canon C500 Mk II, but due to their similar mounting standards it can also be used with the Canon C300 Mk III.
