View Full Version : Handle for top of FS100? Bruce S. Yarock February 22nd, 2012, 11:43 AM I 'm trying to find some kind of a handle for picking up and holding the FS100, similar to the Berkey rig. Actaully, I spoke to Brian Berkey and he said he'd see about making something and get back to me. I don't need the whole plate, just a piece that screws into the two 1/4 threaded holes with a handle that can adjust for height. Any ideas? Bruce Yarock Buba Kastorski February 22nd, 2012, 12:20 PM Take a look at mounting plates (http://www.woodencamera.com/mounting-plates) from woodencamera, i got easy plate, top handle and side handle, not sure if they work on FS100, i think they should, they pretty universal Bruce S. Yarock February 22nd, 2012, 12:35 PM Bubba, Thanks for the link. I called Ryan and they don't have anything yet that's made for the FS100. Bruce Yarock Stu Siegal February 23rd, 2012, 02:03 PM Take a look at Caleb's handle, very popular, might work for you. home (http://shootingmachine.net/) Jem Moore February 23rd, 2012, 07:31 PM I just ordered a handle from Caleb, should be here this week and I'll let you know what I think. That said, it was the nicest option of all the ones I found so far... Brian Murphy February 23rd, 2012, 08:56 PM Brian Berkey at Berkey systems also does a nice plate and handle and other stuff Jeff Troiano February 23rd, 2012, 09:46 PM I went with the Berky plate and handle Dan Asseff February 24th, 2012, 08:59 PM Bruce, Here is a good but cheap solution FOTGA DP500 Handle Support Extension Bracket Mount Rail Rod Rig (http://www.thephotoforum.com/forum/linkdelight-photography-accessories/268453-fotga-dp500-handle-support-extension-bracket-mount-rail-rod-rig.html) Dan Kevin Dooley February 26th, 2012, 08:24 PM I went with the solidcamera.com option - mostly because I wanted their EVF mount and it was a no brainer to add the handle in at the same time.

Dan Bruce S. Yarock March 2nd, 2012, 12:47 AM I ordered the plate and handle assy from Berkey systems, and it will be here today. I really like the evf mount from solid camera, but it's WAY expensive. Bruce Yarock |
