Required Gear

To mount CineBack™ Lite to you camera, you'll need either a 15mm rod system or some other way to mount the unit to your camera. Watch the video above to see how Caleb Pike recommends you do this using the following items:

  • Base Plate - This is how you'll mount your camera to rods. This SmallRig version is our favorite but if your budget is tight, this unit is the most affordable. 
  • 15mm Rods - There are thousands of rod options on the market. Just choose a length, material and go! 8 inches is a nice small compact length for most of these rigs but you do you!
  • Quick Release - If you want to be able to quickly remove your camera from the baseplate, we recommend a quick release system. The Falcam F38 quick release is super fast or this SmallRig Arca Swiss option is also good with this unit being a little faster to release. Finally these Arca Swiss Clamps are the most affordable quick release option.

Amazing upgrade for my A7SIII Kit

I added this to my A7SIII kit that had a Tilta cage.

Loving the multiple USB power outs and the LCD screen protection.

Makes my kit solid and I feel like have control over how neat the rigging looks and functions! It's a home run in my books!

Compact, Good Design

compact, simple design. comes together snugly, some plastic parts, but it feels strong and well built

Needs Work

The design is compact and able to be adjusted forward and backwards on rails, which is great. My main gripe is the vmount on the back. I typically use FXLION Nano v-mount batteries on the back. Based on the design of the mount on the cineback it is incredibly easy to disconnect the battery from the cineback if any amount of pressure is put on the battery. I like to use this handheld and if I try and put the camera towards my chest for more stability the battery almost always pops right off and falls on the ground. I'm not sure if it's the locking mechanism that's faulty or something else but it's incredibly frustrating given that this is the main benefit of the cineback.

Works as expected

Great product but the v mount doesn’t feel like it snaps in place quite as well as other plates. Otherwise five stars

Was excited however disappointed…

Was very excited about the product however quickly became disappointed once received. Unlike the full Cineback, it did not include much and really needed our purchases for it to work. The 3D print quality is visibly worse, I almost rather they offer the STL file and part list for half the price so I can ensure the quality.

Finally it’s the cost. It is almost the same price as the full comeback!

I have been a big fan hence the purchase without thinking too much. However will definitely reconsider in the future as it’s not cheap and no way to refund purchasing to the UK.

Hope this help others…
