Overview
The Bright Tangerine KASBAH Ātman Universal Shoulder Rig Kit (One-Axis BUD VCT-14) allows you to easily go handheld with any camera. This kit guarantees speed, control, and comfort, ensuring a smooth and efficient shooting experience.
Low Profile Shoulder Rig
Maintain agility while using the Ātman Shoulder Rig. This low-profile, lightweight platform enables nimble and responsive handling. By keeping the camera low, you preserve natural movement and improve ergonomics, reducing strain on the body.
Versatile BUD Platform
The Ātman Shoulder Rig uses the wider 88mm ARRI BUD standard, integrating smoothly with BUD-compatible bottom plates such as our B4003.1056 – Universal BUD Plate and B4004.1038 – BUD Bottom Plate for the Sony BURANO. Additionally, it is also compatible with ARRI ALEXA 35, MINI, and MINI LF camera models when paired with the BUD-1 and BUD-3 bottom plates.
By integrating BUD with your camera, you can easily switch between different setups like shoulder, gimbal, and handheld. Use our full range of BUD accessories to make these transitions in seconds.
Optimal Balancing
The camera’s placement on the shoulder rig impacts the overall balance of the setup significantly. Using the ARRI BUD dovetail standard, we provide a spacious 165mm of sliding capacity, enabling you to adjust and evenly distribute weight, reducing the strain on your back, neck & shoulders.
The balance can be fine-tuned with added precision using the sliding shoulder pad situated on the frame.
For added flexibility in positioning the shoulder pad, check out the B6000.00010 – KASBAH Ātman Universal Shoulder Rig Kit (Two-Axis BUD VCT-14). This version includes a broader pad that allows adjustments in both forward/backward and side-to-side directions.
Ergonomic Comfort
Experience enhanced comfort throughout your filming sessions with the KASBAH shoulder pad. Designed to minimise fatigue, this accessory features an innovative design with multiple density zones, providing targeted pressure relief. This allows filmmakers to remain focused and productive all day.
Dock onto VCT-14 Tripod Adapter Plates
Equipped with the VCT-14 mounting kit, the shoulder rig provides a reliable connection for your camera setup. This ensures stability and dependability across various shooting scenarios. With secure mounting, filmmakers can focus on capturing the ideal shot without concerns about equipment stability.
ARRI Standard Rosettes
ARRI standard rosettes on both sides of the frame enable seamless integration with our KASBAH hand grips and arms, as well as other compatible accessories.
15mm Rod Support
The front of the handheld rig features a height adjustable 15mm rod clamp for supporting matte boxes, focus motors & lens supports.
An optional rear 15mm rod mount can be added with B6000.1024 – KASBAH Ātman Shoulder Rig Rear Rod Mount.
