Kondor Blue 501 Adjustable Baseplate (501 QR)(Raven Black) is a 501-style adjustable camera baseplate that supports height alignment and quick-release mounting within a 15mm rod rig. Its value depends on the exact camera, plate, thread, locating-pin pattern, payload, clearance, and operating position used in the finished rig.

Product Overview

Kondor Blue 501 Adjustable Baseplate (501 QR)(Raven Black) is part of Kondor Blue's production-mounting ecosystem. It supports height alignment and quick-release mounting within a 15mm rod rig, helping crews build a repeatable setup without treating every plate, handle, cable clip, or accessory mount as interchangeable. Before ordering, map the camera body or accessory, mounting interface, screw and locating-pin pattern, load direction, balance, rod height where relevant, cable clearance, quick-release safety, and whether controls, doors, screens, batteries, and connectors remain accessible.

Key Features

Purpose-Built Rigging Role

Kondor Blue 501 Adjustable Baseplate (501 QR)(Raven Black) functions as a 501-style adjustable camera baseplate and should be selected for that exact mechanical job.

Mount and Clearance Planning

Match threads, locating pins, plate standard, camera fit, payload direction, operating access, connector clearance, and strain relief.

Repeatable Production Setup

The accessory supports faster rebuilds when its position, fasteners, safety locks, balance, and neighbouring rig parts are documented before production.

How It Compares

Choose this camera baseplate when its interface and supports height alignment and quick-release mounting within a 15mm rod rig. Choose a different plate, handle, cable clip, or accessory arm when the camera, mounting standard, payload, rod height, articulation, or release method changes.

For camera assistants, cinematographers, rental teams, owner-operators, studios, and production crews building repeatable camera, monitor, or accessory rigs.

Who Should Choose Something Else?

Choose another rigging part when the camera model, plate ecosystem, thread or locating-pin standard, payload, movement range, balance, control access, or quick-release method does not match.
