MG1 Concepts' D-plate shipping

[Caden Nash]

I just got an e-mail from them and they are beginning to ship out their D-plate. Finally.

Very excited.

Delivered today by Express. I quickly opened the package. Dang, its beautiful. #$%^ load of 1/4-20 holes. Unfortunately, no Scarlet to test it until next week, but very impressive.

Some quick pics.

Thanks

I'm curious how it mounts as well. Is it a quick release system from the camera body? If so how does it lock on and detach without any visible latches?

 

[Caden Nash]

It locks because of these spring plungers on the back of the D-plate. First, you screw your M4 bolts on the back of your camera, line up the holes, drop down into the slot. D-plate is firmly attached.

Plus the weight of the battery - holds down D-plate in place.

Brilliant idea.

Their Scarlet V-mount Pro Battery plate wt D-plate has the V-Mount Plate AND it has the D-Plate with Lemo cables?

Are these in stock? I need to order something like this ASAP.

Also, how are those cheap V-Mount batteries they have? 130 Wh for 225?

You could contact them

You could contact them

I did, but it was the middle of the night.

I figured someone might know here...worth a shot.

 

[BrandonChristensen]

Just heard back from Gary and he said they are in stock but they are still fulfilling Pre-Orders.

Sweet.

Caden Nash, can you post a picture of it mounted on the camera if possible? I'd like to see how it sits compared to VF's and WC's.

Brandon,

Ok, when I get my camera back. I was happy not to wait like others for their V-mount plate. Everything seems to be back-ordered except MG1. Will post when I get it back - sometime next week.

 

[BrandonChristensen]

Thanks bud.

 

[Steven Chill]

I bought one. Seems like a good product. Not sure for the company but their customer service is top grade. Wow...quick answers. That's a company for you. Seems like they're very genuine and honest about their own and other third party RED products. That's nice to hear.

I appreciated their attitude and advice. Classy.

Thanks Julie & Gary

I'll be getting my rented Scarlet back next week so I will take some pics for you. If I have time; I'll shoot some video like how it mounts to the camera and others cool ways.
