Product Information

Full details

The Vocas Production Kit is designed for professional videographers and cinematographers who need to transform the Sony PXW-FX9 into a robust, shoulder-mounted rig. It excels at providing essential balance, handling ergonomics, and expanded accessory mounting, making it an ideal choice for long-form broadcast or documentary production. Users should note that this kit adds significant weight to the camera setup, which may require more heavy-duty tripod heads or support systems when switching from handheld to sticks.

FAQs

Does this kit include a top handle?

No, this kit includes a H-Cheese Plate that integrates with the existing Sony FX9 top handle.

Can I use standard 15mm rods with this base plate?

Yes, the USBP-15 MKII is designed specifically for standard 15mm rod systems.

Is the shoulder pad adjustable?

Yes, the shoulder pad on the USBP-15 MKII can be adjusted to balance the rig properly on the operator's shoulder.

Will this fit other camera models?

This kit is specifically engineered for the Sony PXW-FX9 and may not be compatible with other camera models without modifications.

How do I maintain the wooden grip?

Keep it clean and dry; if the finish wears over time, it can be treated with high-quality wood wax if necessary.

Troubleshooting

Viewfinder bracket slipping or tilting

Ensure the NATO rail is clean and free of debris, then verify the clamp locking lever is fully engaged.

Shoulder plate feels loose on the camera

Check the mounting screws on the bottom of the base plate to ensure they are fully tightened against the FX9 chassis.

High-quality, durable components built for professional use
Increased accessory mounting versatility
Secure viewfinder locking mechanism
Intuitive quick-release base plate system

Cons

Increases the overall physical footprint of the camera

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the system, attach the USBP-15 MKII to the bottom of the Sony FX9 using the provided mounting screws, ensuring the base plate is aligned with the center of gravity. Mount the H-Cheese plate to the top handle by aligning the provided bolts with the pre-drilled holes in the Sony handle. The viewfinder bracket attaches via the NATO rail on the camera body; tighten the clamp securely to ensure no drift.

Care Instructions:

Regularly check that all mounting screws are tight before every shoot.
Wipe down the wooden handgrip with a dry cloth; avoid harsh cleaning chemicals that could strip the finish.
Inspect the NATO rail periodically to ensure the viewfinder clamp maintains a strong, slip-free grip.
