Bridgeplate 15 mm studio Arri standard (DP15S)

The studio bridgeplate can easily slide onto the lightweight ARRI standard 12″ dovetail plate (DP12A) for additional leverage and mounting options. It is made of CNC aluminum and it is also designed with locking levers to secure the bridgeplate to the dovetail. The ARRI Standard Studio Bridgeplate comes with two tapered, 12″ 15 mm rods (15TUBE12) to easily mount and dismount your camera and accessories. This pair of SHAPE 15 mm Aluminum Rods (12″) connect into your camera rig, extend it, and let you add various SHAPE and third-party accessories compatible with 15 mm rods. The rods are hollow, non-threaded, and made of reliable aluminum coated with a clear finish. The studio-offset rods are spaced 100 mm apart. One 1/4″-20 and one 3/8″-16 screw allow mounting a variety of cameras, and the plate locks and slides up and down the rods with the use of a locking lever. A flat screwdriver is provided to tighten the mounting screws, and it can be attached to the bridgeplate with a magnet.

Sliding riser and locking lever

The riser allows to adjust the position of your camera while mounted on the Bridge Plate with respect to the 15 mm Studio Optical Center of the Sony Venice Camera. An easy-to-access locking lever, located on the side of the Riser, enables you to secure the Camera Plate firmly in place. There is also a quick release safety pin that prevents the Camera Plate from sliding off the Riser which is fully engaged when the latch makes an audible “click” sound. Several 1/4″-20 and 3/8″-16 threaded holes are also available for attaching the Riser onto the Bridge Plate.
