MCS ShoulderCam Bundle
Images shown with optional Mattebox, Follow Focus, Anton Bauer Battery, lens gear and EVF. Camera not included.
The Shoulder Cam was developed for shoulder mounted camera work. Designed around the shooting methods used on a 35mm Panavision setup, the Shoulder Cam closely mimics the feel of a true 35mm film camera.
Wondering which shoulder rig is best for you? Check out our comparison video.
Note: The current MCS line was developed around the Canon 5D/7D by Shane Hurlbut over the last several years. This does NOT limit the system to these two cameras. The whole concept behind MCS is modularity. The camera becomes the least important piece of the puzzle. All you have to do to convert MCS to outfit a different camera platform is replace the cage and camera. We offer a full line of custom camera cages, both powered and non-powered, for current and future cameras.
