Hardware overview

Faceplate Cage

The one-of-a-kind Faceplate Cage attaches directly to the Venice sensor block using existing mounting points. DLC-coated stainless steel rosettes and an optional lens-centered Rod Clamp lets you create a standalone rig during handheld or gimbal use, if a baseplate is not used. Anything mounted to the Faceplate Cage will transfer over when converting to the Rialto 2 mode. The Faceplate includes reconfigurable swing-out tape hooks, a dedicated rod mounting point for lens control motors, an EVF cable clip, and more.

ARCA Baseplate

Low-profile, lens-centered, and compatible with any bridge plate, the ARCA Baseplate’s low center of gravity lets you add shoulder pads or other accessories while maintaining optimal stability. Lens-centered Front and Rear Rod Clamps let you mount additional accessories to the back of your rig or to add more clamping force onto the rods. Intuitive access holes allow you to transition to a Rialto 2 setup without removing the Baseplate, and supplies the user storage locations for the Sensor Block screws.
