efs4ever 3 #1 May 16, 2003 Is the tripod socket sufficient, by itself, to keep a PC 100 / 120 attached? It's attached via a Stroboframe quick release system. Anyone had one come off mounted like that? RWRussell M. Webb D 7014 Attorney at Law 713 385 5676 https://www.tdcparole.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chachi 0 #2 May 16, 2003 I have about 300 jumps with my camera attached to the top of my Flat Top Pro with only a thumbscrew and I have a strap that runs over the top of it. Holds just fine, I think when you ad a strobo on top you raise the camera up and have a great place for a line to wrap around, I think it is completely unnecessary. ~Chachi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cajones 0 #3 May 16, 2003 Instead of a Stroboframe QR, I'd say get a BH d-box for the 120. Bolt the d-box to your top-mount, and leave it there. The camera is pretty easy in/out, is much better protected, and a bit more line/riser-strike streamlined. The laws of physics are strictly enforced.

XDV 0 #4 May 16, 2003 I have my flat top pro installed with BH D-box with a PC-101 and everything is very nice, but I look foward for a TRV style Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JayhawkJumper 0 #5 May 17, 2003 You could also look into the Tom Sander's Roll Cage. I've seen some nice flat tops with this mount. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cajones 0 #6 May 17, 2003 The roll cage makes it too hard to put the camera on/off. The most useable benefit of the d-box is it makes it easy to pull the camera off very quickly/easily to change tape/batteries/shoot ground footage. - Cajones The laws of physics are strictly enforced.
