    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.
