davidfreefly 0 #1 June 4, 2009 Anyone with a rawa using top mount for both video and stills? I have a Rawa with a top mount for the new sony CX 100 (cx 105). Now im planning to buy a Canon Rebel (EOS) and want to mount both on top. Any idea?? Should i top mount the stills and go with the video for the side mount?? Pics would help! ________________________ DAVID DOVAL www.paracaidismogalicia.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Icon134 0 #2 June 4, 2009 with that helment you probably want to mount the stills on the top and the video on the side... although it's probably possible to figure something out... it wouldn't be nearly as safe as a dedicated top mount helmet such as a FTP or Vapor Wes Pro.

Bill_K 0 #3 June 4, 2009 What Scott said!! I jump a Rawa, but I put stills on top and video on the side. I won't even try to put both on top. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not a very wide camera... you might need to cut an opening in the side of the Box to allow space for the Hype-D connector but otherwise it's not a bad camera to side mount. In fact I don't think its much wider then my HC32 2.2in wide whereas the CX100 appears to be about 2.25in wide... I used to have my HC32 in a sidemount RAWA box,.. until I sold it before purchasing my FTP a few years ago. I think there are even pictures in the post your camera helmet thread... Top mounting is preferable for any camera (IMHO) but it is possible to side mount this camera.Livin' on the Edge... sleeping with my rigger's wife...

We just received 6 of them. Rawa's top-mount CX100 box is different from its side-mount CX100 box. And the helmets come HypEye D Pro ready with holes for the button and plug-in cable. I'll have photos up on my site of the side-mount version sometime tomorrow. Take care, MikeChutingStar.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
