15mm Standard
The 15mm standard is referring to the diameter of the rods themselves our rods are 15mm and are spaced 60mm apart. Any 15mm compatible accessory should work on our rod systems, just make sure you have enough length see below.
Thumb Screw Adjustments
Thumb screw adjustments allow for much easier setup and adjustments while in the field. Parts can easily be removed and adjusted without an allen wrench.
L-Riser
The L-Riser allows for more flexibility in mounting your camera and adapter. The riser can step down or step up the extensions of the rods rather than having the rods in a level line.
ENG Mount
The ENG mount is the wedge style tripod plate found on most ENG style cameras
