Description
The Advanced Kit for the Sony VENICE Extension System Mini gives you everything you need for cinematic shooting. Featuring a range of accessory mounting points – including 1/4″ and 3/8” screw threads along with QD sockets, MAP M4 points and 15mm rod brackets.
Featuring our LeftField Mini 15mm LWS Baseplate, the Advanced Kit is the perfect choice to enhance your setup.
Minimum Size, Maximum Freedom
Despite being 60% of the size, the LeftField Mini Baseplate compromises on none of the functionality. It features our Open•UP system, which makes it more convenient than ever to mount your rig to ARRI-standard dovetails (plus, the Advanced Kit features an 8” Create Dovetail for you to mount). Pair with the included Riser to set your VENICE Extension to the 15mm LWS standard height.
Ready for Rigging
With the Advanced Kit, you can customise your VENICE Extension System Mini with a huge range of options: from standard-issue 1/4″ and 3/8” threads along the Top, Rear and Side Plates; to more specialist options such as QD sockets on the Top Handle. The Advanced Kit also features 15mm rod brackets both as part of the LeftField Mini Baseplate and with the included Top Bar Bracket.
Full Functionality
The Advanced Kit allows you to customise without compromise: forming a wraparound cage around the VENICE Extension without interfering with the stock camera extension’s features. The Advanced Kit maintains full access to the drop-in ND filter slot and vents, ensuring full control over exposure and airflow.
Handle with Ease
The Sliding Top Handle is a versatile and essential component in the Advanced Kit. It is fully adjustable to be forwards or backwards-facing. The Top Handle also features the mount for the Top Bar Bracket, and can be customised to different shapes and sizes with our range of Master Handle Extensions.
Built to Last
Don’t mistake their lightness for weakness, however: our aluminium is aerospace-grade for long-lasting performance. All components are resistant to corrosion and to withstand the usual wear-and-tear – they’ll be just as sturdy on the twentieth take as the first.
Part of the Sony System
The Sony VENICE Extension System Mini is the next step in cinematic convenience, and our bespoke range of accessories for the camera sensor block mean you don’t have to compromise on customisation. Lightweight and robust, our accessories give you the freedom to shoot comfortably no matter the situation.
