Arri Bridgeplates...

[Chris_Burket]

Are all Arri cameras since the IIc standardized to work with any modern Arri Bridgeplate? Can you use a BP-4 or BP-9 with the IIc flatbase?

Which flatbase?

 

I think the Bridgeplate came out after the IIC was discontinued & replaced by the 35III.

 

The CEI motorbase, which is not an Arri product, ought to fit. But anything made prior to the bridgeplate...nah.

You can get a flat base for the IIC with the motor is mounted on the side of the camera rather than underneath. It was commonly used when the 11C was used on a Steadicam.

 

I've used a Bridgeplate on a 11C, but I can't recall any riser details.

The ECE (Technovision) flat base is the thinnest. The motor mounts vertically. It would need an adaptor/riser.

Something like the Cine60 might be too thick.
