I have the Panasonics 100a & 100b Cameras. I use these cameras to shoot weddings, mitzvahas, etc. I use the wireless Sennheiser mic. also using Becor MPL 645 dimmer. I want to get a Shotgun Microphone problem I see where would I put both Mic & Light at the same time. Can you suggest a better light for this camera and for what my needs are! I use SLM-10XLRATM Battery Belt I 4 of these belt's don't want to change for a new light if I have to. Did you ever run into this problem by needing both a Shotgun and Lights at the same time.
What type of lights do you use. It was suggested that I use double mount arms, is this something that you may use

I do this:
Shoe mount - camera light
Mic mount - shotgun mic (Rode NTG-2 fits perfect)
Bracket 1 - Sennheiser wireless receiver

Here's what I'm talking about:

That thing will actually hold 2 wireless receivers if you have them. That frees up your microphone mount to hold your shotgun, and your light is on the shoe mount.

Oh, you need this piece too:

It's all a bit of a price for what it is, but it works great. Keeps balance, lets everything attach securly and looks professional. The dual-shoe mounts are alright, but then your light is off-center, which you may or may not like to have.
