501 Pivot Battery Mount

The KONDOR BLUE 501 Pivot Battery Mount reimagines how V-Mount batteries integrate into modern camera rigs. Rather than adapting traditional cinema battery plates designed around bulky rod systems, the 501 Pivot was engineered as a compact, lightweight platform for today’s hybrid filmmakers, content creators, and cinematographers.

The mount combines a 501 plate, a tool-free Mini Pivot, and a precision-machined Mini V-Mount Plate. The 501 plate is compatible with the KONDOR BLUE quick-release plate as well as any industry-standard 501 plate, so it fits into the setup you already use. The Mini Pivot provides smooth, pre-set tension for effortless battery repositioning without knobs, levers, or tools.

Designed specifically for compact cinema cameras like the Sony FX3, FX2, Canon C50, R6V, Nikon ZR, Z6III, Lumix S1II and similar systems, the 501 Pivot keeps battery mounting close to the camera while maintaining full flexibility. The battery can be folded tightly against the rig for transport, swung away to access rear displays or ports, or positioned to improve overall balance during handheld operation.

Every component is CNC machined from aerospace-grade aluminum and stainless steel to maximize strength while minimizing weight. Multiple mounting interfaces with removable locating pins provide secure anti-twist installation across a wide range of cages and accessories.

Whether you’re building the lightest possible run-and-gun setup or creating a fully configured cinema rig, the 501 Pivot Battery Mount delivers a cleaner, faster, and more adaptable approach to V-Mount battery mounting.
