Extension Cable for C300 grip

[Paul Cronin]

I am looking for the extension cable for the C300 grip so I can locate it onto my Movcam handle. I know Zacuto sell one but you have to buy their other gear that I don't need.

Having searched on the Web I can't seem to find one.

Anyone know of other options?

[Paul Cronin]

Found out Arri makes one but can not find who sells it.

Anyone have one?

I have contacted Arri and Abel and hope to get an answer soon. Looks like a great addition to any shoulder rig for the C300.

Found it with Abel.

[Jon Roemer]

Curious about the price and availability on the Arri one. What did you find out?

[Bob Willis]

I think that is a handgrip by Arri and not the cable.

[Paul Cronin]

It is a cable and a handle holder for the stock handle. Price from Abel coming.

[Bob Willis]

Very Interesting. I would be interested in any further information you find Paul.

[Paul Cronin]

Arri got back to me and they will sell for $563 and 4 week wait. He said Abel could do better on time and price. I am waiting on Abel to get back to me.

I you put the line below in Google you will get a PDF that shows the item.

Thanks Paul,
I have used the Arri Plate and Handgrips with the C300 and it is very well made.
Looks like the extender and cable for the C300 grip is well thought out.

[Paul Cronin]

Agree it looks great but a 4 week wait will mean a no for me. Still have not heard back from Abel.

Hope it's better than the Denz version.

Used it on friday and removed it a few hours later. The additional part that fixes on to the rails does not work well and effectively made it unusable.

Not well thought out at all.

[Paul Cronin]

Thanks for the input Syeed,

I could not wait 4-6 weeks they told me it would take so I ordered the Zacuto one. Will fit this on my Movcam rig.

Also looking at getting the FocusPlus+ from Edelkrone for my focus on the left side. I think the two combined will be nice shoulder setup. Of course I will have some additional custom features. Once set up I will start a thread showing the full set up and why it is that way.

[Paul Cronin]

I have to say the Zacuto grip re-locator work very nice. Arrived today and used on a job tomorrow. So nice when shoulder mounted to have my hands lower.

Follow up to the Denz part:

We found the problem in the vocas basplate not fixing the 15mm rods securely enough. So actually the rod turned not the grip on the rod ;o)
So the Denz grip reloactor wasn't then problem in the end.

Yep, the Denz grip locator is fine. great bit of kit.

Just have to find a base plate that will hold the rods securely.
