Compare the SHAPE Remote Extension Handles for Canon C400 and Sony FS7. Find out which model-specific ARRI-rosette handle system fits your rig.

Quick answer

Choose the SHAPE Remote Extension Handle for Canon C400 if you need integrated camera control via cable; pick the Sony FS7 version for a dedicated side-grip extension on an ARRI rosette rig.

Model-specific fit matters

Both handles mount via ARRI rosette and offer a 2-inch adjustable arm extension. But each is designed specifically for its camera’s side hand grip, so swapping between systems isn’t straightforward.

Cable vs. grip-only workflow

The Canon C400 version includes a camera control cable for remote record start/stop and other functions. The Sony FS7 version extends the existing side hand grip without adding camera-control cabling.

Trade-offs at a glance

  • Canon C400 handle: Integrated camera-control cable for start/stop and record; adds USD 254.30 to your rig. Best if you need remote camera control from the handle.
  • Sony FS7 handle: Extends the existing side hand grip without adding a control cable; priced at USD 158.97. More affordable if you only need better ergonomics, not extra control features.
  • Compatibility: Each handle is model-specific. The Canon C400 version won’t mount on a Sony FS7 grip, and vice versa. Verify your camera model before ordering.
