The SmallRig "HawkLock" VCT-14 Type Shoulder Rig (SR009) 5199 is designed for cinematographers and content creators who demand stability, comfort, and speed on set. Built to support medium to large cinema cameras with a payload up to 20kg (44lb), the rig ensures shake-free, precise shots for first-person perspective filming and professional production workflows.
Optimized Stabilization & Ergonomics
The wide, thickened shoulder pad and adaptive back pad distribute weight evenly for fatigue-free shooting. The telescopic arm adjusts laterally up to 50mm (2in) to fit different operator sizes, while maintaining an unobstructed view during operation.

Quick Center-of-Gravity Adjustment
Dual quick-release plates offer 185mm (7.3in) of front-to-back fine-tuning, while vertical adjustments accommodate a wide range of camera and lens combinations for optimal balance.
Versatile Expansion Options
Multiple mounting points—including 1/4"-20 locating holes, threaded holes, and 15mm rod clamps—support accessories such as monitors, V-mount batteries, and follow focus systems. The rig’s modular design includes an ARRI rosette and interchangeable handles to customize the setup for individual shooting styles.
