Shape Rob Baseplate

Assuming you meant a SHAPE 15mm Rod Baseplate, this is the foundational support component for building out a custom professional cinema camera rig. Designed specifically for various cinema and mirrorless cameras (with custom plates for bodies like the Sony FX6, Canon C70, or RED Komodo), it attaches directly to the bottom of the camera to provide industry-standard 15mm LWS (Lightweight Support) rod blocks on both the front and rear.

Because mounting heavy accessories like a large matte box or a wireless follow focus motor directly to a camera's lens mount can cause catastrophic physical damage, this baseplate shifts the weight of those accessories entirely onto rigid 15mm aluminum or carbon fiber rods. It serves as the central hub of a rig, allowing the entire built-out camera package to be seamlessly transferred from a tripod to a shoulder rig without needing to strip off accessories.
