Tilta Lightweight Shoulder Rig | Foldable | Aviation Grade Aluminum Alloy | Dual Quick Release | 15mm Rod Mount/NATO Rail Adapter | Compatible with Manfrotto/Arca | TA-LSR-B

I originally had a hard time deciding between the Tilta, Polar Pro and smallrig shoulder rigs. I watched many youtube videos and ended up going with this rig for my Sony FX3 video shoots. It allowed me to save money (Polarpro is expensive), and this is extremely easy to setup and get started.The Tilta Lightweight Shoulder Rig has transformed my handheld filming experience. The rig's versatility is unparalleled, thanks to the Dual Manfrotto ARCA Baseplate. This feature allows seamless use of either Manfrotto or ARCA plates, providing great flexibility in my setup. The removable baseplate, compatible with various other plates, enhances this versatility.What truly sets this rig apart is the adjustable velcro shoulder pad, which ensures perfect balance and comfort during long shoots. The extendable rosette arms are a brilliant addition, allowing me to customize the hand grips' length and angle for comfortable operation in multiple positions.Mounting an external monitor is a breeze with the 1/4"-20 thread on the extension arms, a feature that greatly improves my monitoring capabilities. The rig's ability to fold up quickly for transportation, thanks to the 360-degree rotatable rosette bridge, is a huge plus for on-the-go shoots.Additionally, the 15mm LWS Rod Mount is perfect for attaching various accessories and battery plates, aiding in the rig's balance and providing power to my camera. The NATO Rail at the back for mounting counterweights and the included Rear Shoulder Support Pad further enhance the rig's stability and comfort.Overall, the Tilta Lightweight Shoulder Rig is a must-have for filmmakers seeking a comfortable, versatile, and user-friendly shoulder rig. Highly recommended for its quality, ease of use, and adaptability.

It’s smaller than I thought but still really comfortable to use

For the price this is absolutely revolutionary.I do agree that it could have a better way to land on a tripod but it is still doable.There are some quick manfrottos that allow for this rig to attach without taking out the back.I rig an alexa mini on this thing with EVF, beachtek, video assist 12g, map1,2 and top handle, battery plate and 2 batteries, mirage matte and follow focus. No problems whatsoever. Super comfy. light etc.Could it be better? yes.Does the job? absolutely.If you can build a 4d here you can build anything really

Great service by Amazon. Arrived in time and in perfect conditions.

Love this shoulder rig. The only thing I don't like is the padding hurts my shoulder. Having a rig loaded with a canon R5,24-70 f2.0, a hollylany wifi reciever and 2 massive vmount batteries makes for a heavy rig that i have to put on my shoulders for 3-5 hours during fights nights. If you could make more comfortable replacement pads like 3" thick memory foam that would greatly increase how comfortable this package can be. Other wise this is a great rig and very compact when folded up. Best one for the money

Much easier to setup and configure than rigs I've needed to build piece by piece in past years, and it comes with an awesome case that lets you fold it up most of the rig and then expand it when you're ready to use it. Comfortable. I'm using it with my Lumix GH6, 5" Shinobi monitor and SmallCage and follow focus.

Smaller then expected still good build quality but I’d want something more egernic even with my camera fx6 it’s like right up against your face

I've been working with all kinds of production equipment as a DP and flexibility, comfort helps me to get my best shots and angles. This Shoulder Rig gave me more options than expected. Great job.
