Handle strong enough to mount on a Steadicam with a low mode handle clamp - or even overengineered if used on a car mount to withstand a few g's.
Baseplate MUCH stronger than the DVX100's, but also replaceable rather than part of the casting in case it does get broken. Perhaps an extra 3/8" mounting screw socket in addition to the usual 1/4" one, further away from the tripod locating pin. This would offer more security and less "twistability" on a professional quick release plate. Able to handle a few G's if car mounted
