SHAPE Multi-Purpose Mounting Cheeseplate with IDX

The SHAPE CP33 Cheese Plate with IDX Plate is a 15 mm rod-mount cheese plate with an IDX V-Mount battery plate screwed onto one side. The plate is 1/4″ thick and features 33 threaded holes for accessories to be screwed into. These holes run end to end, from one side of the plate to the other. Four of the holes are 10/32″ and the rest are 1/4″ and 3/8″.

The IDX plate covers many of the holes from one side, but you can still screw into these holes from the other side as long as the screws are not much longer than the 1/4″ thickness of the plate. The holes at the very corners of the plate are untouched by the IDX plate and can be used to attach accessories or devices like AJA’s Ki Pro Mini. Screws are included for a Ki Pro Mini and for an Anton Bauer battery plate. The cheese plate is precision-machined as one piece.

SHAPE CHEESE PLATE is a multi-purpose anodized aluminum camera accessory mounting plate.
This precision-machined, one-piece cheese plate is mounted on a 15 mm ROD BLOC (¾” thick) for optimal stability.
The 33-hole cheese plate (¼” thick) enables you to mount a variety of accessories and devices on your camera support system.

The IDX plate is screwed on the MULTI-PURPOSE MOUNTING SHAPE CHEESE PLATE. Here are some of the more common accessories used with the SHAPE CHEESE PLATE: rods, articulating arms to hold LCD monitors and converter boxes including the AJA Ki Pro Mini. You can attach a plate and battery on one side and an AJA Ki Pro Mini on the other.

SHAPE CHEESE PLATE works with both Anton Bauer 3-Stud and IDX V-Mount style batteries. You can use the MULTI-PURPOSE MOUNTING SHAPE CHEESE PLATE to mount a variety of accessories, brick style batteries and battery plates. The battery plate and battery mounted on the CP33 can also be used as counterbalance.

You can still add more counterbalance by attaching counter-weights to the back of the rig along with the SHAPE CHEESE PLATE. One single red knob enables easy and fast adjustments of the plate on the 15 mm rods to also counterbalance the camera support. Magic arms can be mounted directly into the 15 mm holes of the plate. They are ideal for mounting lights, monitors and audio devices.
