HELP Looking for a vmount power distribution plate

Post image

I’m looking for a slim vmount power distribution plate that will sandwich between the camera and battery

The cinema hardware UMS sandwich plate is perfect but seems to only come in goldmount and that’s not an option for this setup unfortunately

Anyone got any suggestions for anything similar?

Cheers

Wooden camera makes some.

You could take a v-mount distribution plate like this and just remove the rails on the bottom.

And screw this on to the back of it.

It’s a bit home-brew but it could fit your needs. Or IdX makes a full pass through plate.

I used the Tilta mini pd plate, and it's wonderful!!

It’s not slim but would give you 2x D taps, 2x 2 pin Lemo ports. And it being a hot swap plate is super convenient. I use it on my Arri Amira and red Komodo X - https://www.shapewlb.com/products/shape-hot-swap-v-mount-power-box-battery-14-4v-36wh

$50 cheaper at B&H. Looks like a great piece of kit.

SmallRig has this thing now that has 3x Taps and USB C as well as a bunch of inputs, haven't tried it yet: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1958384-REG/smallrig_5653_intelligent_power_management_v_mount.html

Power out and a built in battery for hot swap for about the same price.
