Base Plate
Hi All
Just a query in relation to baseplates. Does anybody have a fix to make sure that the back section of the camera is stable as well as the front. I use either the miller slide in plate or a proper JVC snap lock plate and the camera does not seem to have a place at the back to lock the camera onto the plate. Thanks in advance regards Dean |

It made a huge difference to the stability of the camera, but you have to be very precise with the positioning of the holes (I made up a template before drilling) one of the screw holes is actually in the slot of the miller plate and it's off centre so unless you have a rigid template guide for both the drill and the countersinking it will not position correctly. I would suggest getting it done at a machine shop if you don't feel confident. Otherwise there's the KA551U which I assumed attached to the rear of the camera as well - if that's the one you've got then I guess not. Tim has one so he should be able to advise |

Well..... I tried to save some money, but now I need to buy the tripod plate adapter. I have the Sony VCT-14 adapter from my DSR-300a, but I need the little triangle piece to attached to my camcorder. I can't find nowhere in North America, they can't even order for me, so I need to buy this little sucker from JVC Hungary next monnth, when I go visit my family. Only about $160-170 Laszlo |

Hi All
Thanks for the pointers much appreciated. Currently stuck in Boome, in the far north of Western Australia, covering the cyclone/hurricane which is off the coast near here. Unfortunately or fortunately depending on how you look at it, I don't have my 101 with me. regards Dean |
