I have a quick question from what was wrote on this thread. The thread specifies the Anton Bauer Dionic 90 iwth a cable and mount. Are the items below what are being referred to? Anton Bauer's site wasn't very informative so I searched B&H. I want to look into my options....

Hi Frank,
I'm personally not familiar with the Dionics, I use the Hytrons. I'm assuming from Matt's posts that the Dionics have the powertap outlet, though I can't see confirmation either from Anton Bauer's site or B&H's. Going on this assumption, then yes, a Dionic would be good, yes the powertap open-ended cable would be good, and yes, the gold-mount plate would be good. Let me elaborate on each: For the anton-bauer battery itself, there are a couple factors. One is weight. You should select a battery which complements the weight of your camera. If your camera is 4 lbs. and you want to continue your run & gun setups, a heavy brick on the back soon looses it's appeal. Anton-Bauer has a range of weights, sizes. Also, don't be afraid of used Anton-Bauer batteries on ebay/craigslist. They are very very durable. For the powertap cable, that needs a mini jack cable to terminate at the other end. I don't know where to get one offhand online, you may want to get this in person at a Fry's or something where you can eyeball the connection size. The wires can be twisted together and sealed with either electricians tape or heat-shrink tubing (fun stuff if you have a hair dryer handy and you like a good finished cable look). I believe a have an extra fully assembled cable I could sell you if you had a hard time sourcing the parts. For the gold-mount plate, I would trust the wizard on the Anton-Bauer site for picking out the appropriate plate for your camera. Again, I wouldn't be afraid of ebay on this one. Also, if you haven't purchased your camera yet, this can be an option on many cameras over the OEM plate if you a friendly dealer. Good luck, Will Will |

Powering Multiple Devices- Various Voltages- One Power Source
The PowerTap connnector is located in the Anton/Bauer Gold mount.
If you need to power multiple devices-- the PowerTap multi cable will expand the PowerTap output to 4 devices. (Your Firestore, light, wireless receiver and LCD monitor). http://www.antonbauer.com/ultralight...ries.htm#power An extension cable for the PowerTap connector is also available- 7 foot cable with male PowerTap connnector on one end-- female PowerTap connector on the other. |
