FAQ

Does this listing include one rod or two?

Each size option is a pair of two 15 mm black aluminum-alloy rods. Select the length you need; the six lengths are alternatives, not a six-size kit.

Which rod length should I choose for my camera rig?

Measure the space needed in front of and behind your baseplate for your actual follow focus, lens support, matte box or battery plate. Choose from 6, 8, 10, 12, 16 and 18 inches; longer rods leave more mounting room but add more length to the rig.

Will these rods fit a 15 mm LWS baseplate or follow focus?

These rods have a standard 15 mm diameter. They fit rod clamps and accessories specified for 15 mm rails; check your baseplate clamp and the position of the accessory before selecting a length.

Can I extend the rods using SmallRig 900 connectors?

Yes. The aluminum rods have internal M12 threads at both ends, and SmallRig 900 is an M12 connector for its 15 mm aluminum rods. The connector is a separate product, not included with this pair.

How do the aluminum rods compare with SmallRig 851 carbon-fiber rods?

Both options are pairs of standard 15 mm rods for rod-support accessories. This listing uses aluminum alloy and offers six selected lengths; the SmallRig 851 option is a 12-inch carbon-fiber pair. Choose material and length to suit the rig.
