Vocas introduced new accessories designed specifically for Canon’s latest 6K full-frame cinema camera, the EOS C400. These include a 2-piece top plate as well as a support bracket for Vocas LPL/PL to RF adapters, but the new camera body is also compatible with other existing Vocas accessories.
After a long wait, the Canon Cinema EOS lineup finally got a breath of fresh air with the recent announcement of the new box-style EOS C400. Boasting a new 6K full-frame BSI stacked CMOS sensor, internal Cinema RAW Light recording, new compressed codec options, built-in ND filters, Dual Pixel CMOS AF II, and robust connectivity, this camera could truly tick most (if not all) boxes for many users.
The camera will be available in September, but many third-party companies have already started developing rigging accessories for the new body. These include ARRI, Wooden Camera, and Zacuto, for example, which are also joined by Vocas.
In particular, Vocas developed a 2-piece top cheese plate that wraps around the camera’s original top handle. It offers several 1/4”-20 and 3/8”-16 threads with locating holes for mounting camera accessories and integrates a bubble level to check your camera’s horizon.
Moreover, the company designed a support bracket that is compatible with both their LPL to RF and PL to RF lens mount adapters. The bracket solidly screws directly to the front of the top cheese plate, thus providing two extra points of contact to avoid play in the adapter.
Finally, Vocas has a full range of universal accessories to complete your EOS C400 configuration. These include dovetail and baseplates, shoulder supports, handgrips, extension arms, 15mm and 19mm rod holders, and more.
The new Vocas accessories for Canon EOS C400 are now available to order from the company’s website. Lastly, the Canon EOS C400 body is now available to pre-order and should start shipping in September.
