If you want one sided focus, the simple one is enough, you don't need such monster things.

@au8ust

Such things sale in very small amounts, and I doubt that any member here used it.

To have the information also here in the Tilta thread: The distance should be around 80mm (+/- 2mm or so). -> Calculated back from the 60mm rod distance on the picture.

The BS-T03 shoulder rig does not work directly with Manfrotto 501PL quick release plates (though it does work with Manfrotto's next size up QR plates). Does anyone know if there is an quick release platform that made by Tilta that can be swapped out? I'd just do it with a Manfrotto 577 Quick Release Adapter, but I'd have to drill and tap holes in the rig and I would rather not do that if I don't have to.

Excellent, would you be able to send me details to buy direct from them? Thanks!

Im interested in the tilta mattebox. Is there a version with 2x 4x5.6 filter stages? Any chance it has a 138mm rear?

I see. Then Lanparte looks like a better option for the GH2/3.

@duch One of my concerns with this rig is that the GH2/3 will sit at your shoulder making the camera monitor unusable. But you mention about adjusting the shoulderplate further back. How far back can you adjust it?

Did this group ever get a bulk purchase done?

What group and what group buy you are talking about?

If you want to get any Tilta gear you can contact me.

Just got my Tilta BS-T03 shoulder base. Shipping is fast, one week from payment to delivery (with one day of public holiday in the middle).

Same overall build quality as their follow focus kit, everything is nicely made, well thought and sturdy. The product in itself is a killer, lightweight (100 grams lighter than Lanparte base plate + shoulder pad + 2 x 30 mm rails, and those do not attach to a VCT-U14), low profile, it is WAY easier to balance a rig with it than with a separate shoulder pad and camera base. Less counterweight force required means the overall weight and inertia of the rig also goes down. To me, Tilta pad feels more comfortable than Lanparte pad.

Overall it's a pleasure to carry on your shoulder, almost feels like a DSR450.

Things not shown on the picture :

• it comes with 2 x 10 mm and 2 x 20 mm rods + 2 x connectors.
• the shoulder pad can be adjusted back and forth via a pair of hex screws (25mm range)
• the version shipped has the new, updated camera plate shown below (I prefer this system, as I lost pretty quickly the two very small "blocking pins" on my follow focus baseplate).
