Why do companies do this? RED follows the Arri standard for baseplates. Vlock for batts... PL for mounts ;)Originally Posted by Jarek Zabczynski
Why not just make it Arri standard? What's the incentive to come up with a different pattern?

Beats me. But for what it's worth I feel the RED rosettes are a better design. It's not just a flat disc that bolts on. There a big beefy fat square block on the underside that locks into the surface of other RED gear. Honestly. the screws just seem like insurance on those things. But yeah I agree...this stuff should just work with everything else out there.

Since you seem to have both rosettes, could you give me the outer diameter from them?

Colin at Camera Accessory Solutions in Sun Valley makes rosettes that match Arri. Quite well made stuff...

Well I don't have any fancy measuring gear, but according to my ruler i got 28mm.

Thanks. It's not that strict for stuff I will make.

So both Arri and Red same diameter ?

No. They don't match. Red looks little larger.

We can make rosettes if you think there's a market for them. Send me an email with what you're trying to do jason@cinemaOxide.com
