Horizontal Leveling
The ARRIFLEX 435/435ES is equipped with a spirit level
to aid horizontal leveling of the camera ➪ photo.
If the camera is set on a level surface with the
magazine in place, the camera may tip back, as
the center of gravity is located far to the rear.
Bridge Plates BP-8, BP-9
The bridge plates facilitate balancing of the camera on the
tripod and mounting of accessories. The BP-8 is designed
for 19 mm support rods, the BP-9 for 15 mm support rods.
The bridge plates consist of the base plate ➪ photo, the
sliding upper plate ➪ photo and a pair of support rods
➪ photo. In the standard version the support rods are
440mm long. Optionally, support rods are available in
the lengths 240mm and 340mm.
Note: The upper plate of the bridge plate can be con-
verted for use with Super 35. This ensures that
the accessories are also exactly adapted to the
displaced optical center of the Super 35 format.
