Cale Boys Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 Just curious if anyone knows if I can drill in this area to create a new screw mounting, I need to move my K-3 forward on my shoulder rig and the current screw mount is too far forward.

Image: https://imgur.com/a/bfil2Zi it is possible to install a new mount there but you need to open the camera to be able to align the hole correctly so that it does not affect the speed regulator bearing assembly and for you to be able to remove the metal dust and filings which would otherwise fall into the camera generating lots of problems afterwards. I like to use a separate quick release plate between the camera and rods so that I am able to move the camera back and forth compared to the rods and the tripod plate. This type of system would work in your application too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
