The Z-lite is a (just under) 3.5 lb. counterbalance weight to balance camera packages that are slightly front heavy. It slides onto 15mm rods, either both rods or on one rod. The Z-Lite is stainless steel with rubber o-rings to prevent hard contacts. A built in lever makes for easy mounting and removal. The Z-lite is great for DSLR packages.

The middle rod that attaches to the lens has vertical adjustment, if needed (please select the rod size below). Only thumb screw tightening is necessary, no tools required. This lens support can be used with a variety of rod sizes. Please select the rods that are being used below for the q-mount.

EVF Standard Mount
The EVF Standard Mount is used to mount the EVF onto the Zacuto DSLR Baseplate. It includes a 4.5 F/F rod that attaches to 15mm rod hole on the side of the DSLR Baseplate and a Z-Mount Zwivel. The Z-Mount Zwivel is a 15mm to 15mm rod connector that allows you to attach a vertical rod or the included EVF pan and tilt mount to the horizontal rod coming out of the side of the DSLR Baseplate. Attached to the vertical EVF pan and tilt mount is Zacuto’s Zicro Mini. This allows you quickly release the EVF from the EVF Standard Mount with the flip of the lever. The pan and tilt allows you to adjust the angle of your EVF to the desired position. If you are looking to mount the EVF to another manufacturer’s rig check out the EVF Rod Mount. |

Zacuto Universal ZipGear prime lens kit includes four 13.5″ adjustable gears and four gear locking housings. This kit is perfect for four prime lenses. Just wrap the gear around the lens, cut to size, press on gear locking housing and tighten. Installation takes one minute.
EVF Tri Mount Kit
The EVF Tri-Mount Kit gives the option to mount the EVF in 3 different ways. It gives you the option to use the EVF Standard Mount when shooting handheld (off the side of the Zacuto DSLR Baseplate), the Extender Viewfinder Mount when shooting on a tripod or dolly, or in quick release hotshoe mount configuration (see detailed images).
The Tri-Mount includes the EVF Standard Mount as well as a 7 M/F rod and a ZUD ¼ 20. The 7 M/F rod allows you to use the EVF in an extender viewfinder position. To use the extender viewfinder mount, remove the EVF Mount from the Z-Mount Zwivel, then screw the 7 M/F rod into the EVF Mount and then slide the Z-mount Zwivel wherever you like so that you can position your EVF to your desired position.
The included ZUD ¼ 20 allows you to free the camera and EVF from your rig and mount it quickly to the hot shoe mount of your camera. In order to use the quick release hot shoe mount effectively, the hot shoe mount included with the EVF should be mounted on your camera’s hot shoe adapter. Then screw the ZUD ¼ 20 into the hot shoe mount and leave that on your camera’s hot shoe adapter. You can then quickly release or attach the EVF from either the Standard Mount or Extender Viewfinder mount with a flip of the lever. This is essential for releasing your camera as well as your EVF from your rig in a matter of seconds.
ZFinder for C100
The C100 Z-Finder Pro is an optical viewfinder, specifically designed to attach to the Canon C100 cinema camera LCD. This Z-Finder will magnify the LCD screen by 1.8x and has a diopter for specific focus tuning. It cuts out any extraneous light and offers an initial point of stability by pressing your eye against the large eyecup. The C100 Z-finder Pro comes with a 40mm diameter Zacuto optical lens, anti-fog coated protective covers, and all necessary additional accessories for the Canon C100. The diopter allows you to dial in the focus to match your eye. If you need extra focal points you can use the included Z-Finder Extender Frames. These are semi-permanent stackable frames that attach to the body of the Z-Finder Pro and extend the Z-Finder glass further away from the LCD screen for people who are farsighted.
