FireWire cable supports

[mharvey65]

I know this has come up recently but...

I saw some time back that some people were recommending FireWire cable supports that screw into the bottom of the H3D to stop connection issues etc

I specifically remember that someone posted a pic of a couple of systems on the forum.

If anyone can resend or recommend a solution, I'd be more than grateful!

I use it and it works great.

I now use a short orange flat Fire wire 800 cable from Lacie. This is extremely flexible and puts no friction on the FW port. It is used together with a Lindy 800/800 FW cable with repeater. Works fine on well powered macs.

WOW used this on a shoot this morning. A perfect solution to not shooting with a bungy or attachment. Used the Flat Lacie Orange FW800 to FW800 cable from camera to the Heavy as a tank 10m cable back to the MacBook Pro.

This is my personal solution to no longer having to be concerned with dropping or disconnecting of the cable from the camera.

Many Thanks to H3dfan
