For unmatched quality both inside and outside the image sensor, our Expert Broadcast Kit for the Sony VENICE is the only place to look. Swap from VCT-14 tripods to shoulder-mounted shooting at the drop of a hat, so that you’re always ready for the ever-changing world of broadcast.

Featuring a rigid cage and robust shoulder rig, the Expert Broadcast Kit is the perfect foundation for your rig.

Balanced Baseplate

The Expert Broadcast Kit is based on the ARRI BUD ecosystem: which is the favourite of cinematic shooters around the world. Our Universal BUD Plate serves as a low-profile base mount: giving you the freedom to mount quickly to any Balanced Utility Dovetail in moments.

Clean Customisation

Our redesigned cage for the VENICE maximises rigging options whilst minimising its footprint. The new Side Plates design feature integrated NATO rails and ARRI rosettes; as well as the standard suite of 1/4" and 3/8” screw threads. Each accessory mount comes with built-in safety features, such as an easy-press catch or locating pin threads, to ensure all accessories are kept safe.

Ready for Anything

When shooting on-the-go, no two minutes are the same. If you need to follow a moving subject or are setting up for a quick static shot, the Expert Broadcast Kit’s integrated KASBAH Ātman Shoulder Rig cuts out the downtime. With a built-in VCT-14 tripod mount, you can get set up in seconds.

Constant Comfort

For those more run-and-gun moments, the Shoulder Rig keeps you comfortable no matter how long the take. The two-axis pad can slide forwards-backwards as well as left-to-right, and is made from a 3D-printed resin that contours to the shape of your muscles. Trust us: it may look metallic, but it’s ultra-comfortable.

Easily Handled

For carrying your VENICE between setups, our D-Style Master Handle gives you a convenient carry point. The rubber inlay in the grip keeps your hand comfortable even on long hauls between setups, and the handle features its own array of accessory mounting options and optional Handle Extensions – so you can create your own unique handle shape.

A New View

Without a convenient viewfinder, even the most talented cinematographer is like a sniper without a scope. Change how you see the world with our Axl EVF Mount. Using a 3-axis adjustment system, you can smoothly adjust the position of your viewfinder – even one-handed. The unique mechanism ensures your EVF is always kept steady, and you can adjust the positioning without the fear of the Axl dropping or sagging.
