Setting Up The Canon C100 & Atomos Ninja 2

[Larry Watts]

Eric,
Just got my ninja 2 for the C100. Your video will be a great help!

I couldn’t quite see how you mounted the ninja though.

Ideally, I think I want to mount it over the rear of the audio/handle bracket, but there is only the threaded hole. I can’t find a male threaded stud with tightening wheel on both ends with a ball hinge in the middle to adjust for angle.

What have you found and where?

Thanks

Larry

Hi Erik:
I’m just about to buy a Canon C100, and your video about the Atomos Ninja 2 is a great help. I’m going to be shooting a documentary in a women’s prison. Because of access issues, I will be a one man band. I’ll have the lav receiver and a boom on the camera. How can I also attach the Ninja 2 in such a way that I can move easily and shoot “run and gun” style?

Thanks!
Best,
Brian

Erik,
I mounted the ninja 2 with a small 2 segment rotolight arm attached to the thread os the top handle.
The ninja is upside down, but flipping the picture was easy.

If a picture would help I can send one

Hi Larry:
Could you please send a picture? Would the rotolight arm attach in such a way that I could still have a boom mic and lav receiver on the camera?
Thx,
Brian

Erik:

I would like to see this too that sounds like an interesting setup. I don’t own a c100 but I often wonder how I would use the same setup myself if I were to buy one. Hopefully this month I can find out 😀
