I have just recently sold my EX1r and most of the accessories. I now have only the incredibly versatile WestsideAv (Olof) Shoulder Mount System and an Anton Bauer T2 charger/power supply and (2) Dionic 90 lithium batteries left.

The Anton Bauer package includes the 2 Dionic batteries and T2 charger/power supply. I sent the charger to Anton Bauer just last Fall, where the unit was checked out and updated with the latest charging software.
This package normally sells for $1700+. I am asking $1100.

The T2 charger can charge all of the Anton Bauer's family of both past and present batteries (NiCad, NiMh or Lithium).
This 2 position unit charges both batteries simultaneously or can be used as a power supply for almost any camera.

Here is info for the T2 and Dionic batteries:

Olof (WestsideAv) Shoulder Mount System.

This system was designed specifically for the EX1r and purchased just last year. I paid $515.
I am asking $350 obo.

The shoulder rig bundle includes:

(2) two piece padded shoulder bracket
Sony quick release tripod shoe slider
Accessory plate for the Nano Flash or wireless receiver
Anton Bauer battery mount system with powertap

The rig itself is divided into 2 separate sections.

The main section attaches very securely to the bottom of the camera which enhances the already improved tripod screw system that the EX1r improved over the EX1 model. It has the quick release Sony slider shoe built in so that you can quickly and easily attach or detach the whole rig from the tripod and then immediately begin shooting. I also had an Accessory plate added as I sometimes use a 2nd wireless receiver or Nanoflash rig. I generally never remove this section from the camera as it is compact enough to fit inside my camera bag. This section also allows a more comfortable handheld experience even without the 2nd shoulder section.

The extension (padded shoulder) section is the 2nd part that holds the Anton Bauer battery mount, additional powertap plug along with the cable that powers the Ex1r. This section slides into or out of the main section in just a few seconds (tightened with only a simple thumb screw) allowing for very quick setup and breakdown times. When this section is detached, it can be easily stowed inside the same camera bag as the EX1r.

I really like using the proven Anton Bauer Dionic battery packs. They provide 90 watt hours of power - more than enough to run the camera and most any accessory all day long on a single pack. However, if you need to shoot with a 50 or more watt light source, you can very easily hot swap the Dionic for another one without ever shutting off the camera. The instant that you remove the Dionic from the shoulder rig, the onboard Sony battery instantly powers the camera without you having to waste time by cutting the camera on or off.

I had an opportunity to try several shoulder rigs (some cheaper and some much more expensive), before settling on this one. It is very well built, offers much better balance and ergonomics (since the battery is behind your back - counter balancing the heavy front end of the EX1r) thus allowing you to shoot comfortably all day even with 2 wireless receivers or Nano Flash and one receiver.

Please let me know, if have any other questions ..
Thanks, Joe
