Finder Accesory Tray for Sony and Panasonic


Recommended Posts

  • Premium Members

Hi folks. I made a few of these after needing something like it on a job.

It may be useful to some of you out there as well.

When I have a Sony or Panasonic camera on the sled, I take off the Viewfinder, but wanted to take some of the weight in the rear and place it up front. Wireless TX,( Modulus, Canatrans, etc..) or some Audio Receivers, etc..

This Tray adjusts for the different sizes between the Panasonic and Sony finder dovetails. Slides side to side a couple of inches to help balance.

 

I'm including a few pictures.

One is a closeup of a Sony Broadcast dovetail from a cam I used on last years Latin Grammy's shown for referrence of the finder part this tray will slide on.

Another picture shows the prototype I paid to have done tested on a camera.

I'm selling them at my cost, just testing the waters. $150 shipped anywhere in the US.

Australia is $180 shipped

UK $175 shipped.
