"On top of the links is the camera mounting plate. This plate has layer of cork glued to it to provide some cushion between it and the base of your camera. Interestingly the camera plate has three slots machined into it, this is to allow cameras with an offset tripod mount to be mounted and remain in a central alignment with the rails and brevis unit. The cork only has the middle slot cut out though so you would have to cut this yourself if you needed to use the other slots."


Holy guacamole!!! Could THAT be the answer to my problem?!

I love the Proteus rig but that one issue had been bugging me! I'm gonna check it out tonight!

Hey Paul, nice review. By the way, I was checking out your videos, the winter garden video has some nice bokeh rendition going on. Is that shot with the new cfxl ground glass?

David, that mod was integrated into production as a result of a request from an XL2 user. It just so happens the HPX170 tripod mount point is significantly off-center too!

Thanks. Yes I have the cfXL in my brevis.
