Blackmagic PYXIS Top Plate

Description

Redefine your rig with our Blackmagic PYXIS Top Plate, which offers easily-accessible customisation options for any camera setup. Covered in accessory mounting options without blocking out the air vents or core inputs on the PYXIS’ body. Factor in the optional front rod console for 15mm rod support, and the Top Plate is well suited for any shooting scenario.

Made from aerospace-grade aluminium, the Blackmagic PYXIS Top Plate is the perfect choice for Blackmagic shooters.

Customise without Compromise

The PYXIS Top Plate offers a range of options for refining your rig. From industry-standard 1/4″ and 3/8” screw threads to more specific options such as MAP M4 or QD socket mounts. Each features the relevant locating pins for secure attachment, and are arranged in the ARRI pin-lock standard array. There are also dedicated 1/4″-20 mounting points for Top Handles, optimised for balance, as well as along the sides for attaching side plates or Cheese Plates.

Clean Installation

The Top Plate attaches to your PYXIS via three 3/8” screws, which are captive within the Top Plate to avoid them being lost when loosened. Once attached, the Top Plate sits comfortably on top of your PYXIS, with ample ventilation thanks to the dedicated cutouts.

Front Rod Console

The Top Plate comes with a front rod console that easily attaches to your setup, featuring extra accessory mounting options, including a dual 15mm rod bracket. With independent locks thanks to the winged-lever clamps, the rod bracket can be used to mount a range of accessories including lens motors, EVFs and much more. Alternatively, remove the rod console to keep your setup as minimal as possible.

Low-Profile, High-Quality

Like all Bright Tangerine products, the PYXIS Top Plate is made from lightweight aluminium, which is then hard-anodised for extra durability. This means it will be more than capable of withstanding the worst that your productions can throw at it, and will be a reliable Top Plate for years to come.
