My FX1 new mic holder
Just assembled my new mic holder on FX1 and everything came out fine.
Black spacer ordered it from John Woo in Singapore $18.00 parts & shipping and received it after 2 weeks. Mic holder $71.00 shipping included. Now I can use the shoe mount for lights. Here's the picture: http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/a...o/DSC04495.jpg http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/a...o/DSC04505.jpg http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/a...o/DSC04504.jpg |
nice job! was it easy to fix? I've got the rode as well. I'm wondering if it gets in the way on the right?

The Rode video mic fits perfectly on the right side and it does'nt get in the way, you can turn where the battery is away from the body I just remove the shock mount so it won't look cluttered, I was to ready to buy another shotgun mic but when I tried the Rode which I already have and it looks good and thats it.
Attaching the spacer to the FX1 was easy, I removed the plastic cover first to see how the hole mounting is, than drilled a hole in the plastic cover and place it back, than I attach the mic holder. Fixing it took me like 15 minutes. |
Looks really great. I'm thinking of doing this to my own FX1, but am a little hesitant because it's brand new. Is there anywhere that very carefully outlines what I need to do in order to successfully do this?

Hi Matthew
This is John Woo. I am the guy who sold the spacer. There is a very detailed instruction from a Japanese guy who also did the same thing to his FX1. You can referred to it and see how simple the steps is if you have all the components. http://ryo1972.web.infoseek.co.jp/HD.../09/index.html For your info, now I am also selling the Mic holder assembly+spacer as a package. My price is cheaper than partstore as I get it direct from Japan. Please see this URL (there's photos of how I mount Sennheisher ME66 & Rode Videomic) http://s154.photobucket.com/albums/s...rst_widget.pbw If you like to buy, email me at hantanbl@gmail.com |
