DV Magazine just gave the LitePanels LP-Micro a mixed review - good functionality, cheap construction.

Michael, what is a Delcam mount?

I would say so as well. Cheap construction - sure. But, it is very light. If it is metal ... it won't be that light ... it works for its functionality.

Sorry should have posted the link.

It's the Delvcam DELVG10801 Handle Bracket:

Works great for mounting various accessories, like lighting, hard drives, wireless etc.

It also has nice cable management, and some have mounted velcro on the side to mount a wireless. I have no need for that as I use the J-Rod Twiin Mount, to mount my shotgun mic and wireless receiver to my mic holder. Works great.

I do still have my FX1's cold shoe, but don't like mounting accessories out in front of my camera lens. Personal preference. BTW I modded my FX1 with the same mic mount that is on the Z1. Another user (John Woo) on these boards sells the mic mount with the spacer (which Sony doesn't sell. Probably to keep FX1 users from modding their units, thus having to buy Z1's.).
