The Zacuto C100 Mark II EVF Recoil with Dual Trigger Grips is a shoulder rig that is compatible with the Canon C100 Mark II camera. When purchasing this rig, you will receive the Zacuto Canon Dual Trigger Grips which have a 360° rotating handgrip system, as well as the Zacuto C100 Mark II Helmet, ideal for attaching additional accessories with the help of the Z-rail and threaded mounts, and the VCT Pro Baseplate - everything you need to head out on a shoot with your camera ready and secure on your shoulder. 

This Recoil rig distributes your focus, monitoring, and camera controls forward, creating an evenly balanced handheld or tripod-based C100 Mark II rig. The right-hand component of the Dual Trigger Grips relocates your original Canon handgrip to a more comfortable operating position.

The red sliding top plate offers easy adjust-ability for lens changes, removing your camera, and balancing your rig correctly on your shoulder. This sliding plate combined with a double screw track offers 10” of camera balance sliding range. You can quickly release your camera from the rig by sliding the red plate completely off and using our VCT Pro Dock to quickly transition it to a tripod, slider, etc.

The lightweight, adjustable rod mount is set far back in the plate, offering plenty of accessory-capable area under the camera lens. This allows you to position your camera further back on the plate, keeping the balance point of your rig directly over your shoulder.

It can be adjusted either backward or forward, just like your camera grip once it has been attached. 

The handgrip and relocator are secured into sleeves and can be adjusted in length within the sleeves by loosening a corresponding lever for each one. They can be adjusted from 13 to 16" in length, measuring from the base to the bottom of the handgrip. Scale markings are available on top to allow you to easily match up the positions of the handgrips. The handgrips are fully removable and you can incorporate a second wooden handgrip at a later time to alternate with the relocator.
