Uk-based V-Mount plates solutions?

Thanks to everyone for ideas

Have anyone thought about using a camera-setup with V-mount batteries on the back of a Module Adaptor on which the lcd is attatched, with a handle attatched to the fron of the brain?

I won't lie, I have no idea what you mean

I think I wrote that post a bit too fast. I meant a setup with a V-mount-battery on the back of a Module Adaptor (http://www.red.com/store/dsmc-modules/product/module-adaptor-plate-top-level) instead of the camera-back as everybody does. And instead attach a handle to the holes on the brain. Does that make sense?

The module adapter doesn't accept V-mount batteris without an additional battery plate though does it? So you'd need a module adapter PLUS back for it plus a battery plate wouldn't you?

Our (UK) Scarlet ... We already had a red battery plate, orderded the lead to convert it from RED UK - and then used cinema-oxides battery plate. This is the cheapest way of using exisiting equipment. Main downside is a lot longer cable but cinema-oxide can do a retro-fit of the cable without extension. Other benefit is - that you can use the CO plate to mount the monitor. We need a riser for the red handle which is too close to the lens.

EPIC-X here in the next few days too
