SHAPE – Nico –
Hello Karl! Thank you for your question! Actually for this baseplate, the padding is in a fixed position since the baseplate sits directly on your shoulder, so in a very well balanced position. However, you can reposition the camera forward or backward on top of the baseplate if you need to balance it accordingly. We hope this helps and we thank you for your interest in our products.
