The final answer will be available very soon.

Hi Jack,

In case you haven't heard, the GY-HD200U (US version) will have the Anton Bauer plate. Some other countries may have different battery plates.

Thank you, yes, this is what they said at DV Expo last week. I think this makes sense that the HD200 and HD250 have the same plate with the package. However, the JVC reps did also say it is very easy to change the plate to IDX if you have those batteries. But since the JVC camera has the electronics to communicate with the AB battery, it makes sense to include this plate with the cameras.
