    hello,

    wondering if anyone has any tips for what they do with the plastic xlr covers? I think they’re great to have since it’d be real easy for foreign objects/dust to get in there but I’m also sure that I’ll lose the covers on my first shoot. I’m thinking of putting a little velcro on them and the attaching them to the camera somewhere during use.

    Don’t they have “string tabs” on them, a small tab with a place to tie a string, fishing line, strong thread, or whatever and then attach that to the camera someplace. I would look at the ones on my camera but my faithful employees lost all four during the first 30 minutes of ownership.

    Also they are very hardy in terms of contact- unless you dip the DVX in sand or water it’s likely to be fine without the caps should you misplace them.
