Introduction At the same time with the official release of the Canon C500 MkII camera, we are announcing compatible accessories to work with it. They consist of a Top and a Base Plate. With the use of the BPA-5 it is possible to change quickly between VCT-14 style plates such as ARRI’s QRP-1 and cine-style plates like BP-8, BP-9 or BPS-2. The plate can be used either shoulder-mounted compatible with a VCT-14 style plate such as the QRP-1 or by using the Bridge Plate Adapter BPA-5 to mount the cine-style BP-8, BP-9 or BPS-2. Both versions can be changed easily to the front and the back by sliding and exchanging one against the other without the need to detach any accessories from the camera. The plate includes an interface for two optically centered 15mm rods at the front and an optional 15mm lightweight support at the back.
