Sennheiser Kit for 300?

I will finish photography on the one hour program I have been shooting for the past year at the end of February on my HMC 150. For this job it was an awesome camera! The program was shot entirely in and is about Barbados. It will be posted this spring and released worldwide in the fall. Many thought I should have used a "bigger gun" but when they see the images from the HMC 150/Brevis and the Kessler Crane shots their jaws drop. So first off thanks Panasonic and secondly thanks Barry Green for all the incredible information and knowledge your continue to share and of course thanks to you ...the dvxuser community and Jarred. This wonderful group helped me make the transition to a DVX100 and then....and soon.. and then....who knows?
I am however going to move to a 300 since the next project is another one year shoot and will require a run and gun setup and better balance on the shoulder like the bad of days of my Iki . I have one question that I haven't been able to turn up in the search mode.
I use Sennheiser wireless kits, currently I have 3 EW500 first generation kits and one plug. My mics are a collection of Trams and a few Sennheisers. Everyboxy loves Lectro....I know. I like Sennheiser and they have NEVER let me down.
Is there a kit for mounting Sennheiser in the 300? Which model Sennheiser if there is ?
 
From my research (of a month or so ago), this is the Sennheiser that fits the slot: http://www.sennheiserusa.com/profes...ransmitter_3000-5000-series_components_500971

Like you, I'm a big fan of Sennheiser mics - from the K6 to the 416, the MKE-2 to the ew100 series wireless. BUT, for about the same price of that SINGLE-channel Sennheiser, you can get a DUAL-channel Lectrosonics SRa (plus Lectro quality)! For me, that was the difference and made the decision an absolute no brainer.
 
thanks for the info that is what I was looking for. I have to also admit your case for the Lectro makes good sense.
Cheers

Hey Brian,

I would love to see those images you took of/in Barbados. As a 'Bajan' living in Canada and a member of DVXuser you can imagine my enthusiasm when I read your post above!

PM me if you have a trailer or some pre-release clips you can share ;)

cheers
