SMALL BATCH GEAR MADE IN THE USA FOR FILMMAKERS
Let customers speak for us
I thought a lot about buying it, because of the additional tax and high shipping to Germany (overall that’s additional 130-150€). But after building my rig I don’t regret it, its just an awesome base for a rig of my (giant) size. I can recommend it to everyone who wants to build a bigger rig that is still sturdy, has good balance and a classic cinema camera formfactor. I have added a D-Style Top Handle, giant V Mount battery (280wh) and the Fuji 18-55zoom lens with lots of accessories. The cineback helps creating the classic formfactor with all its mounting points, the great sideview monitor placement and power options. The overall stability of this rig is like a tank, it feels like its an original camera body and not like smashing lots of rigging parts together.
Thanks for building and selling this Caleb!
What can be optimized: the on/off switch can be a little bigger and should have a more satisfying click. Now it is a little too „muddy“ for my feel.
Another idea:
1. Would be awesome to see a cineback version with lockable 2 pin power outputs!
2. As well as lockable cable routing (hdmi, audio and usb c) directly through the cineback from the left hand side to the right sight of the cineback to deliver all outputs to the right side for the first ac.
But beside of that I am really satisfied with the cineback and fully enjoy having a rig like that! Together with the Fuji xh2s it truly feels like an original cinema camera system I am working with and that’s what I wanted to get. So 5/5 stars for you Caleb!

Makes my FX-3 way easier to rig accessories on and helps organize the cables. The Cineback helps with the ergonomics of the camera. My only gripe is that you need to had a riser to my Tilta LWS 15mm to have the height for a lens support bracket when using a zoom lens. Besides that everything about the Cineback I have liked so far.
It organizes my rig in such a way that not only looks great but is practical too.
I just love everything about it. My X-H2S does feel more balanced and it now offers more functionality. Would be nice if the Dtap - USB-C cable housing would be extra reinforced as mine kept opening. Other than that, the CineBack is a huge upgrade!
This handle really completes the whole package! Extremely sturdy and well built! Sony would be smart to manufacture their handles like this one.
There’s a reason other companies are trying to replicate this device. The cineback is one of a kind and it’s the best at it too. Absolutely love this thing and the possibilities are endless!
Product arrived quick and performs exactly as advertised. Love the feel and increased functionality & handling it gives my rig!
Words can’t describe how much I'm enjoying this product,
Simply amazing ergonomics, easy assembly and gorgeous visual aspect .
I bought the Cineback for my FX30 in the Gold mount and love it. Everyone that sees my rig is awe struck especially since it's paired with an 40mm Atlas Orion lens. It looks very professional and I like that I am cable to recharge my battery from the D-Tap on the side of the battery plate.
Love the cineback for the FX3/FX30. It'sconvenient and ergonomic.
Although the FX3 is still a great and capable camera, the CineBack is a great addition that breathed new life to it. I enjoyed the CineBack so much that I bought another and i’m looking forward to the XLR extension restock.
Best Gear for my FX3!
