  A/B Ultralight & DVX100

  Posted by Ken Zukin on November 16, 2005 at 8:57 pm

  I’m a Betacam/SDX900 shooter and I have an assignment tomorrow where the client is requesting a DVX100 with a camera light.
  Is there an easy way to rig and Anton Bauer tap light (Ultralight or LitePanels LED) to work with the DVX100?
  Thanks.

  There’s a standard accesory shoe- shouldn’t be too tricky.

  Let me re-phrase. Both of my small camera mounted lights (A/B Ultralight & Lite Panels LED) have proprietary Anton Bauer “taps” or connectors on them. Does the DVX100 accept this type of connector?
  Thanks.

  I can’t see your gear from here but I’m sure you can jury rig something- no?

  No. There is no AB plug on the DVX camera. You’ll need something else. We have an AB plate in a hip bag and use an exension cable to the light. It sucks. Also. the DVX only has a show. No 1/4 20 screw hole.
