Attaching the Movcam FS7 15mm Standard Kit - V-Mountto the bottom of the Sony FS7 camera increases the mounting surface area and keeps it flat. The top surface is specially shaped to fit exactly with the FS7's contours. With the expanded surface area, a shoulder pad or tripod plate can be placed anywhere along the bottom of the camera for optimal balance with different lenses or rig components. The base of the plate is also Arca-Swiss compatible for securing to Arca-Swiss standard support equipment. Aside from camera support, the front of the plate can house a lens/adapter support to reduce stress on the camera's lens mount.

Q: 10. I'm using a Sony FS7 with the Zeiss LWZ.3 21-100mm. How can i adjust the mattebox on the rod to make sure it will fit my front lens (114mm). I don't see anything to adjust the heigh of the mattebox?

A: The MM4 mattebox does not have a height adjustment. With the correct step down ring (130mm to 114mm MOV-301-02-004-108C), the mattebox can clamp directly onto the front of the lens. Using the Movcam FS7 / FS7 II baseplate and riser would allow for cinema standard height alignment if you choose to go a different route for your camera support.
