The SmallRig Universal Base Plate is a must-have for any camera rig setup. It offers a robust foundation, ensuring my camera is stable throughout shoots. The design is minimalist yet functional, with strategically placed threaded holes for mounting accessories, such as 15mm rods or monitors. This versatility allows for a customizable rig depending on the type of shoot. In terms of design, it’s clear that SmallRig has put thought into optimizing for both functionality and ease of use.

Nice quality.Use on a Smallrig zve10 cage.Rods slide through nicely.Overall a nice useful bit of kit....10/10

Handy base plate for my Sony ILME FX3, the rubber pads with the 1/4 screw, keep the camera securely locked in place and then the tripod plate has two mounts to attach to, stops the camera from twisting.I use the 15mm rod holders to mount a monitor or battery at the rear and with longer rails, add a matt box and focus puller on the lens. This base plate also has the advantage of raising the camera from the Tripod, so bigger diameter lenses don't touch. Well made equipment as usual from Smallrigg.

Average quality. For the price it's good.

Perfect for smaller DSLR style camera bodies - you'll need something bigger for anything else though

I did not realise when I bought this item it was specifically for Sony FS5 and Canon C100 . I used it on my Fuji XT3 and its= seems to be ok. It is very robustly made and has loads of holes in it for screwing things in. What I like about it is it has both 3/8 and 1/4 inch screws for camera mount. At first I used the one screw and it was a bit shaky. I then discovered that I could screw both screws in as it is attached to a Small rig cage which has loads of holes in it and the camera them screws onto the cage. The cage adds much more versatility due to the multitude of mount points.

Got this to mount my camera and rods to my chest support. Was very happy with the build quality. seems to be one machined piece. Plenty of mounting points both on baseplate and front. 100% recommend.

Have this under the smallrig cage for my GH5 in order to add 15mm tunes. Works a treat. It’s slightly larger than I thought it would be but that’s a good thing. It’s by far the cheapest way of adding 15mm tubes to your SLR or mirrorless system. The also allows TWO screws to attach to the bottom of my GH5 cage which is a bonus as for many users it seems that only one hole lines up.
