The Bright Tangerine Morrissey 15mm LWS Lens Support is an essential tool for professional cinematographers and videographers who utilize heavy prime or zoom lenses that put excess strain on camera mounts. It provides vital stability to prevent mount damage and image jitter, offering 18mm of vertical travel to ensure precise alignment with various lens diameters. While it offers robust support, users should ensure their rig specifically utilizes a 15mm LWS rod system to maintain compatibility.

No, this specific model is designed exclusively for 15mm LWS (Lightweight Support) rod systems.
The Morrissey is designed to support the foot/mount of a lens. Using it against the lens barrel itself is not recommended as it may damage the focus or zoom mechanisms.
Yes, it features 18mm of vertical travel to accommodate different lens diameters.
Yes, the 3/8-inch mounting points are standard and compatible with most professional magic arms and monitor mounts.
Yes, the lever design is specifically shaped to allow for easy handling while wearing gloves on set.
Ensure the 15mm rails are installed correctly and that the Morrissey is not being blocked by other rod-mounted accessories.
Check for debris in the locking mechanism and clean with compressed air or a soft brush; do not force the lever.
Re-tighten the vertical support post collar to ensure maximum upward pressure is being applied to the lens foot.
To install, slide the unit onto your existing 15mm LWS rod system and tighten the lever to secure it at the desired distance from the camera body. Adjust the height of the 1/4-inch post by loosening the top collar until it contacts the lens mount foot, then lock it into place. To maintain the unit, keep the quick-release lever threads clean of sand or debris to ensure smooth operation. Periodically check that the mounting screws on the support post are tight, and ensure the anti-twist ports are free of obstruction when mounting third-party accessories. Store in a dry case to prevent oxidation of the metal components over time.
