Sony Viewfinder Mount Prompter Adapter

thingiverse

Our SteadiCam operator is always trying to find ways to reduce weight. I printed an adapter to use the standard Sony Viewfinder mount instead of an arm to mount the camera's teleprompter. The prompter moves less and the rig is almost a pound lighter. Instructions At first I was going to try and mount an "adapter" directly to the Teleprompter monitor, but decided to add a standoff to move the monitor further forward. I used acetone to bond the adapter and standoff, but added holes for an M3 flathead screw to add strength. The other end of the offset has a hole where you can thread a standard 1/4"-20 screw (I cut the head off and threaded it into the standoff).
