Description
Zacuto Z-Rail Rosette Mount
The Zacuto Z-Rail Rosette Mount is a versatile and essential component for professional camera rigs, specifically designed to bridge Zacuto’s quick-release Z-Rail (NATO rail) system with industry-standard ARRI-style rosettes. This allows filmmakers to quickly and securely attach various rosette-mounted accessories, such as handgrips, extension arms, or articulating arms, to their camera rig.
It’s particularly useful for building custom shoulder rigs or handheld setups where precise positioning and quick adjustments of grips are crucial for operator comfort and control.
The Zacuto Z-Rail Rosette Mount consists of two primary parts:
- Z-Rail Clamp: This is a quick-release clamp that attaches to any standard NATO rail (often referred to as a Z-Rail in Zacuto’s ecosystem). This clamp allows the entire unit to be rapidly mounted, removed, and slid along the rail for quick positioning.
- ARRI-style Rosette: Integrated directly into the clamp is a standard ARRI-style rosette (often M6 threaded), which features a multi-toothed pattern. This rosette provides a secure, anti-twist connection point for any accessory equipped with a corresponding rosette male or female.
The Z-Rail Rosette Mount is typically constructed from robust, precision-machined aluminum, ensuring durability and a strong, non-slip connection. Its design allows for 360-degree rotation of the attached accessory at 30-degree intervals, providing fine-tuned angular adjustment.
Key Features of the Zacuto Z-Rail Rosette Mount:
- Integrated Z-Rail (NATO Rail) Clamp: Enables quick-release attachment and precise sliding along any standard NATO rail for flexible positioning.
- Standard ARRI-Style Rosette (M6): Provides a secure, anti-twist, and widely compatible connection point for rosette-mounted accessories like handgrips.
- 360-Degree Angular Adjustment: Allows accessories to be rotated and locked at 30-degree intervals for precise ergonomic positioning.
- Durable Aluminum Construction: Precision-machined from high-grade aluminum, ensuring robust strength and longevity for professional use.
- Quick Mount & Dismount: Facilitates rapid attachment and removal of rosette accessories from the camera rig, enhancing workflow efficiency.
- Versatile Rigging Solution: Ideal for building customizable shoulder rigs, handheld setups, or mounting articulating arms with rosette ends.
- Anti-Twist Secure Connection: The toothed rosette interface ensures the attached accessory remains firmly locked in place without twisting.
