Backpack system....

But why cable? Why not power camera same way as quad module?
Be nice if the 6 pin lemo to camera body connector was a right angle version... be even nicer if the V-mount battery via this backpack option could power the camera through the back pins like the battery modules do. The current non right angle lemo plug sticks out at the bottom a fair bit and at least in my usage tends to get lent on when off the tripod. One of my lemo connectors has already been compromised. I modified a battery plate to accept a right angle 6 pin lemo that extends to the right of the rear, and not only is it neater, but I am no longer putting pressure on the lemo connections and therefore risking broken wires in day to day camera use. Preferable option however would be to have V-mount battery option on the backplate without the need for the lemo plug at all...
I was just about to buy a 3rd party solution... any hints of the release-timeframe? (summer?)

that one is called the meizler... a nice V-LOCK battery holder with a few extra features![]()
