Sony FX5 Bottom Plate
Description
Get started with our Sony FX5 Bottom Plate: a clean and convenient rigging base for your setup. With a huge suite of mounting options, both for building out a cage or going stripped-back, the Bottom Plate is an essential part of your new rig.
What is better than a high-grade Sony FX5 Bottom Plate? What is better than securing your camera in seconds to any Arca plate, any QD strap, or direct to bolt-on accessories? What is better than having the freedom of a vast range of secure rigging options, without a bulky or heavyweight base on your FX5?
Seriously, we’re asking: what is better?
Open Rigging
Our FX5 Bottom Plate is forward-facing in more ways than one. Of course, the camera is kept aligned by two mounting screws and anti-twist lips; but the built-in Arca compatibility means you can also mount it to a huge range of options. If you’re running a stripped-back rig, just clip it into an Arca tripod, or you can attach it into our OpenRig™ ecosystem if you’re wanting to go truly cinematic.
Shoot Your Shot
We don’t want to tell you how to shoot. The FX5 is such a versatile piece of gear, there are so many different uses. If you need to bolt it direct to a camera plate, the Bottom Plate features 1/4" and 3/8” screw threads on the base – perfect for minimal camera plates or mounting to an arm like our Titan Arm 2 Ti. For running around the city handheld, keep the camera close with a QD socket for compatible straps.
Access Granted
We’ve carefully shaped the FX5 Bottom Plate to maximise rigging capabilities, without blocking any camera features. The Bottom Plate doesn’t block any buttons, including the customisable front button, and the Plate contours to the camera shape - so there’s no uncomfortable corners. We’ve also made a cutout port for you to feed out dummy battery cables, giving you more power without compromising on space.
Worth It
Anyone left unsupervised with a power drill can put some holes in a lump of metal - so what sets our FX5 Bottom Plate apart? Aside from the fact that our plates are made from the kind of aluminium they shoot into space, we also hard-anodise and precision-cut every single plate. The result? A quality you can feel through every second of shooting.
Part of the Sony FX5 System
The future is here: the Sony FX5 is the latest and greatest cinema camera, so make sure your camera has the cage it deserves. Bright Tangerine Sony FX5 accessories are all designed to the highest standard, so you always have the best camera rig for the job.
1. Align the two mounting screws with the threads on the FX5 base.
2. Use a 3mm Hex Key to tightly secure them in place.
