Support your Panasonic S5 camera with this adjustable ACT Recoil Rig from Zacuto. The modular rig is made up of the ACT Baseplate, the Panasonic S5 Cage, the ACT EVF Pro, a right-hand wooden trigger grip, the Tactical Handle, and the Axis Micro EVF mounting arm. The Zacuto ACT's open design allows you to support your rig on your shoulder while remaining highly adjustable, allowing you to add more accessories and additional rig components if required.

The modular Panasonic S5 cage is specifically designed for the Panasonic S5 camera and provides multiple 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 accessory threads, two rosettes, and a Z-Rail. The cage mounts onto the shoulder-mount baseplate, which features 15mm rods and rod ports on the front and back, and it features an Arca-type quick release camera plate.

The wood right-hand grip can be mounted onto the 15mm rods and can adjust to your preferred position, and the tactical handle can be attached as a top handle or used on the left side if desired. Monitor your video with the ACT EVF Pro, which features 800 x 480 resolution and can input up to 1080p video via HDMI. The Axis Micro allows you to mount the ACT EVF Pro or monitor onto one of the 15mm baseplate rods.

Zacuto ACT Baseplate

Mount your DSLR or mirrorless camera such as a Panasonic GH5 Mark II and additional accessories such as a matte box, follow focus, or extension arms using the ACT Baseplate from Zacuto. The baseplate features a built-in shoulder pad, an Arca-type mounting plate, a quick release Arca-type camera plate, 15mm rod ports on the front and back, two 15mm rods, and stylish red locking levers all around.

The 15mm rods can be installed in the front or back of the plate, and they are secured with a quick release design. The Arca-type bottom plate can be mounted onto the ACT Mounting Plate or other Arca-compatible mounts. The red Arca-type camera plate features quick release functionality, pads to prevent twisting or slipping, and it's inset into the baseplate for a low-profile design. Scale markings along the top assist with balancing.

The display features numerous functions such as check field, markers, image flip, battery meter, image freeze, zoom, and color temperature.

Zacuto Right-Hand Wood Trigger Grip

The Right-Hand Wood Trigger Grip from Zacuto is a highly adjustable wooden grip that mounts onto a 15mm rod and provides right-handed support for your camera cage or rig. It enables full 360° rotation with the press of a button trigger.

Zacuto Axis Micro EVF Mount

Attach a rosette-mounted EVF to your camera or rig with the Axis Micro from Zacuto. This adjustable mounting arm, slightly more compact than its big sister the Axis Mini, is designed to attach to the top of your camera setup using its micro 15mm rod to provide you with ample room for adjusting focus or working with large lenses. It attaches directly to rigs fitted with a 15mm rod port and mounts EVFs, such as the ACT EVF Pro or Gratical HD, using its secure 1/4"-20 rosette.

Zacuto Tactical Handle

Add a versatile handle to your camera rig or cage with the Tactical Handle from Zacuto, which features a slim, adjustable design that allows you to use it as a top handle or side handgrip. It features a built-in Z-Rail/NATO-type rail on top, a shoe mount, and multiple 1/4"-20 and 3/8"-16 mounting threads that enable you to mount a variety of accessories. Its grip features finger grooves and is lined with wood for a smooth, comfortable feel.

The Tactical Handle mounts onto any Z-Rail/NATO rail, and the Z-Rail jaw clamp can be twisted and oriented in multiple ways to work on horizontal or vertical Z-Rails. The spring-loaded locking lever enables tightening or loosening of the joint, so it can be reconfigured as a top or side handle. The handle is suitable for use with small cameras such as the Panasonic GH5 Mark II.

Zacuto Camera Cage for Panasonic S5

The open-style Camera Cage from Zacuto provides protection for your Panasonic S5 camera and support for a variety of accessories. The lightweight, formfitting aluminum cage is designed to use your camera's neck strap eyelets, using the cage's strap slots to keep your camera secure.
