and all cameras including mirrorless
Zacuto’s Indie Recoil shoulder rig is ideal for DSLRs and small camcorders, but it will work with all cameras from the smallest mirrorless to a camera the size of an Alexa.
Whether your DSLR is your main or back up camera, if you shoot run’n’gun style or in a studio, or you prefer Canon, Nikon, Sony, or Panasonic, there’s no denying these small cameras pack a big punch. The shallow depth of field, high resolution, full frame and in some cases 4K make them either your go to camera or companion piece to a full size cinema camera.
Next Generation Recoil rigs are designed for optimal balance and comfort when shoulder mounted or on a tripod. With lenses and cameras being similar weights, the balance point is approximately where the lens meets the camera body. In a Recoil rig, the balance point needs to be directly over your shoulder which puts the camera behind you. This requires focus, monitoring and camera controls to be relocated forward, creating a lighter and shorter rig. Next Generation Recoil rigs are compatible with all cameras from a tiny mirrorless to a camera the size of an ALEXA.
