About the Blackmagic Design BMD-BMCSTUD/TPDMNT Tripod Mount for Studio 4K Camera
The Blackmagic Design Tripod Mount for the Studio 4K Camera is a dedicated, robust interface designed to securely and precisely attach the compact Studio Camera 4K body to professional video tripods, pedestals, or other mounting systems. It serves as a crucial mechanical adapter, translating the camera's native mounting points into a standard 100mm ball-leveling base, which is the industry-standard interface for broadcast and studio tripod heads. This mount provides the stability and fine-adjustment control necessary for fixed studio shots, live event coverage, and any production where smooth, controlled camera movement is required. Its design ensures that the camera's center of gravity is properly aligned over the tripod head, facilitating balanced operation and preventing undue stress on the mounting equipment.
Constructed from durable aluminum alloy, the mount is engineered for both strength and lightweight portability. It features integrated 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 threaded holes, offering flexibility for attaching accessories like wireless microphone receivers, monitors, or cable organizers directly to the mount, helping to keep the camera rig organized. The quick-release mechanism allows for fast attachment and detachment of the camera from the tripod, which is invaluable during setup changes or when moving between multiple camera positions. By providing a secure, standardized, and accessory-friendly mounting solution, this tripod mount is an essential component for integrating the Blackmagic Studio Camera 4K into any professional multi-camera production environment, ensuring operational reliability and creative flexibility.
