Top Plate Support
This Sony Top Plate is a
top cheeseplate designed
specifically for the Sony
F55 and F5 camera bodies,
allowing the camera's vent
area to remain open. The
plate offers rows of 1/4-20"
and 3/8-16" as well as
three rod ports. Paired with
the Top Plate is our Recoil
Handle, making the Sony
F55 or F5 more mobile
and easily handheld.
The Recoil Handle is a
quick release handle that
will work with any Z-Rail to
give you a top handle and
a unique dual cold shoe
accessory mount.
Opposite the cold shoe
mount is a 15mm rod
clamp for mounting a
Zacuto arm or other rods.
3/8"-16 and 1/4"-20
mounting holes are also
available. With the
connections on both the
Top Plate and Recoil
handle your accessory
options are seemingly
endles.
