Product Information
Full details
The Hague CSM Camera Shoulder Mount Rig is designed for videographers seeking enhanced stability and comfortable camera handling during extended shoots. Its primary benefit is reducing fatigue by distributing camera weight, allowing for smoother shots. A potential consideration is its aluminum construction, which while durable, may require precise adjustment for an optimal fit. This rig offers a snug, customizable fit on the shoulder, ample space for camera controls, and an integrated handgrip for support.

You can gently bend the aluminum arm of the rig to conform to the shape of your shoulder for a snug and comfortable fit.
Is there a specific way to hold the handgrip?
The handgrip is designed to support the weight of the camera, allowing your hand to rest on it. It facilitates support for either your left or right hand.

Clean the rig using a dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning agents.
Troubleshooting
Rig feels unstable on the shoulder
Gently re-bend the aluminum arm to better match your shoulder's contour. Ensure the camera is centered and balanced on the mount.
Handgrip is uncomfortable
Adjust the position of the camera on the mount or slightly reposition the rig on your shoulder. The handgrip is designed to support the camera's weight, not to be gripped tightly.
Camera is not secure
Ensure the camera is firmly attached to the rig's mounting plate using the appropriate screw. Check that the plate itself is securely fastened to the rig.
