[2.6 oz / 75 g] Soldi like all the BT stuff!

[0.15 lb] Bright Tangerine is top class, and this top rail is no exception--and the QD sockets are a great and useful bonus.

[2.6 oz / 75 g] First camera cage system from BT and it's awesome. I bought the original Kasbah system alongside the Misfit kick back in the day and was impressed by the functionality, quality, and their efforts to keep things light weight while still strong/solid. When it came time to get a cage for the Burano, I knew I wanted to try BT over the other options that were first to market apon its launch. The side rails connecting top and bottom inspire confidence for mounting things pretty much anywhere on the rig. The sliding top plate is slick, I'm getting another one for quick swaps to my movi alongside a BUD plate for the bottom. The D handle is solid and comfy. Paired with my Kasbah shoulder rig, its the quickest to build and comfiest to shoulder all day compared to other systems I've tried/built in my AC days. You won't regret it! Also the customer service is TOP with BT. They just called me within 15 mins to get clarification on a support email I sent regarding plate compatibility. Who does that these days?!

[0.15 lb] Is it expensive? Yes. It is flawless and perfect? Yes.

I just love everything about it. My only maybe SLIGHT complaint, is I wish it had some Rosette mounts in this kit, but I easily added the BT side plate to finish it out!

[0.15 lb] Yup, it's a sliding baseplate that slides and holds my Alexa Mini camera. Helps when using it with gimbals.

[2.6 oz / 75 g] I had originally bought the standard komodo baseplate from Bright Tangerine but realized it only had one screw and would twist on the camera showing off alignment of my matte box etc. This DJI version has tabs that fit into the base of the komodo and prevent twisting. It does cost more but is so much better.

[0.15 lb] This is THE solution for add rods to your komodo and being able to go from tripod to handheld in literally 2 seconds.
The latch design is perfect and clamps down tightly to your dovetail plate. The placement of the tightening knobs for the rods is nice.

I was initially going to go with the 8Sinn baseplate but after careful review I noticed that the knobs for tightening the rods interfere with the other knobs. In my opinion, I saw this as a possible hinderance to the ease of use I was looking for as I'm regularly in fast paced situations where struggling with any piece of gear is unacceptable.


If you can afford it, you won't regret it.
Its a deceptively simple tool but a must if you care about your gear working flawlessly and not worrying about fiddling around with the quirkiness that can come from some of the cheaper solutions.

[2.6 oz / 75 g] I did not need to remove anything on the RS3 Pro to be able to use this plate. Since I use this style of plate on everything, I got the cage pieces for it and now have a solid cage for the C70. Nothing feels loose (Tilta cage...) and the mounting points on the cage are thought out well.

[0.15 lb] I use this with my Red Gemini and it works great for keeping a low profile in a low weight solution for dovetail applications going from tripod to gimbal to shoulder set ups.

I use this with a 300mm (12 in) arri dovetail on the tripod to get good balance and it slides onto the wooden camera unified VCT wedge plate (B&H # WO223300) for shoulder work.


This is the best solution out there for keeping the camera low on the shoulder or light on the tripod with lower center of gravity with 15mm lw rods.


My only change would be the screws that come with it need to be lower profile to be even with the bottom of the camera. I switched those out for some WC low profile screws.

[2.6 oz / 75 g] Really loving this system so far. The dovetail plate is super secure with a great quick release. I mostly started looking at this because of the top hand brace, which always seemed like a weak part of the fx6 if you plan to load it with extras. Adds rigidity all around with convenient mounting points.
