The Zacuto Canon Recoil Package combines everything you need for a run-and-gun style videography support system for less than if you rented everything separately. Each component of this package is interchangeable with a variety of Zacuto support products. Note, however, that the Z-Drive Follow Focus unit is not compatible with matte boxes when working shoulder-mounted. Here are the features of each component of this kit:

Zacuto Z-Drive and Tornado Grip Follow Focus

This drive and follow focus unit is designed with single-operator shoulder-mounted rigs in mind. It consists of a mechanical follow focus Tornado Grip for 15mm rod support systems and a Z-Drive with a fixed 0.8 pitch gear for connecting to your lens. To use, slide the Tornado Grip into the Z-Drive whip port by pushing down on the round plunger and pushing the Tornado into the port. Grab the horn handle and turn to focus. The curve of the Z-Drive in conjunction with the ergonomics of the Tornado Grip allows for comfortable and quick operation without additional assistance and will accommodate a wide variety of lenses. It is particularly suited for the Zacuto Recoil but will work with any Zacuto shoulder-mounted rig. The Z-Drive can also be used with a standard follow focus whip on a tripod, allowing for last-minute rig switch-ups on set.

Zacuto Z-Finder EVF Pro

This small monitor and electronic viewfinder can be used with a Z-Finder support system. It is compatible with most DSLRs and video cameras with HDMI out. Having an offset viewfinder in front of your eye and in line with a rod-based support system allows you to shoot ENG-style for stability and comfort. The EVF also gives you better visibility to your scene in bright conditions and also aids in more accurate focusing. The included diopter allows you to use the viewfinder optically and can be snapped onto the frame of your external monitor. This Z-Finder is great for filmmakers and run-and-gun style shooting.

Zacuto Z-TAP Tripod Adapter Plate

This plate has a large platform designed for larger video camera setups and accessories. The underside of the plate has three1/4"-20 screw holes, two 3/8"-16 screw holes, and a locator pin port to accommodate a wide variety of tripods, monopods, sliders, and dollies.

Noga Cinematic Arm

This versatile articulating arm has a standard 1/4"-20 thread mount. Supporting a load capacity of ten pounds, easily mount a monitor/light to a camera, to a supporting rig, or to a tripod for adjustable positioning.

Zacuto Canon Recoil Kit for C100/C300/C500

This kit features an exceptionally flat baseplate that helps keep the center of gravity low and also sports a curved, padded shoulder pad system that comes with a dovetail plate compatible with Kessler or Really Right Stuff quick release plates (in addition to the Z-TAP included in this kit). The handgrips are fully articulating and can handle an incredible amount of pressure. The arms quick-release off, which is handy for travel. You can quickly reposition the rods on the baseplate and also position the dovetail plate on sliders to position the shoulder pad for maximum comfort. This kit is designed for use with the Canon cinema cameras in a traditional ENG-style setup.
