Universal Adapter Plate UAP-3

The Universal Adapter Plate UAP-3 is a small and flat staging platform for the ALEXA 35 top accessories, including the Lightweight Camera Handle LCH-1 and Center Camera Handle CCH-2. For more mounting options, the UAP-3 can be extended to the back with the TEB-1. The UAP-3 can also be attached to the base of the camera when an ultra-slim mounting plate is required for small rigging scenarios.

Lightweight Camera Handle LCH-1

The Lightweight Camera Handle LCH-1 is a lightweight carbon-fiber top handle for carrying the ALEXA 35 and for mounting accessories. It can be quickly attached to or removed from the camera's top or the Universal Adapter Plate UAP-3 without tools, and the handle post can be slid forward and backwards to balance the camera in your hand.

Balance Harness Adapter BHA-1

The Balance Harness Adapter BHA-1 allows the secure attachment and rapid balancing of the ALEXA 35 when using various camera suspension harnesses. The BHA-1 slips over the handle of the Lightweight Camera Handle LCH-1 and can be slid forwards and backwards with a simple thumbscrew. It features a 3/8-16 threaded hole for connection and can also be used to mount accessories to the top handle.

Lightweight Support LWS-6

The LWS-6 holds two 15 mm lightweight support rods. It is designed as an option to add lightweight rods to the Lightweight Camera Handle LCH-1 or to the Universal Adapter Plate UAP-3. When attached, rods are optically centered based on the lightweight rod standard and allow mounting further accessories like the Mini Viewfinder Bracket MVB-1, lens motors or matte boxes.

Bridge Plate Adapter BPA-6

The BPA-6 combines a small shoulder pad with optically centered 15 mm lightweight rod clamps for small and lightweight camera builds. Interfacing directly with the wide dovetail interface on the BUD-1, the BPA-6 allows for rapid removal and significant balance adjustment. An integrated “Touch and Go 35” snap-plate can be removed to allow mounting of the classic ARRI Bridge Plates BP-8 or BP-9.

Compact Shoulder Pad CSP-2

The CSP-2 is a very light, flat shoulder pad with a long Visco pad for the ALEXA 35. Its four feet allow the camera to be safely seated on a flat surface when not on the operator's shoulder.

Rod Mounting Bracket RMB-3

The RMB-3 supports a single 19 mm rod (15 mm rod via reduction insert K2.66255.0) and is well suited to accessories such as lens motors or lightweight viewfinder mounts.

Viewfinder Cross Pipe

The ARRI Viewfinder Cross Pipe can be used in combination with the Viewfinder Mounting Bracket MVB-1 to attach ARRI or third party viewfinders in combination with the EVF brackets from ARRI PCA.
