Using a shoulder rig is a great way to add energy to your footage, bring the audience right into the action and help things feel more realistic, however pulling focus on a shoulder rig and keeping your image sharp can be hard to do. That's where the Tilta Nucleus side focus handle or side focus grip comes. This shoulder rig is mostly made of SmallRig parts and they're all linked below. The rig was built out with the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 6k, but it could also be done with the Pocket 4k, new pocket 6k Pro, or pretty much any other mirrorless camera like the Sony a7siii, Fujifilm X-T4 and so on.
