mounting a monitor on bars
I currently have my marshall monitor on the accessory shoe of my camcorder, but It's not an ideal mounting point - It makes the camera very top heavy, and also it's too close to my face when using the viewfinder, so I want to find a way to mount it elsewhere.
My thinking is some way of mounting it on the bars support that I will be getting shortly, maybe by means of a magic arm or similar. Does anyone know if someone makes a suitable attachment for a bars system that could be adapted for this puropse? Something that would mount to a standard 60mm spacing set of bars, and then has a clamp or an adaptor hole which a magic arm could be attached to? p.s. I've tried using a noga arm off the accessory shoe, but the noga just can't take the weight! |
There are a number of rail mounts made for this.
Also there is a beefier Noga arm made to handle the weight of your monitor. |
Hi David,
Could you suggest some suppliers of these mounts? I've tried some of the usual channels but without success |
I would google for UK suppliers so you would save on shipping costs.

forget the NOGA stuff, your looking for ULTRALIGHT control systems stuff. We are a reseller and we have put this stuff in all of our rental units. All of our noga stuff is sitting in a drawer. Yu can build your own system from a variety of parts they have. It can take the 9 inch panasonic monitor with an IDX battery on board, so I know it can take your unit.
