Comments about Anton Bauer 4 PowerTap Sandwich Adapter:
This is designed to be sandwiched between Anton Bauer Gold Mount batteries and plates to provide power for on board devices. It does this perfectly. What I needed was something to allow using Anton Buaer batteries on my HDSLR rig, specifically to power the camera and monitor. While it has plenty of outputs it does not mount to the cheese plate on my rig without modification, thus voiding the warranty. I wish Anon Bauer made a version that would work on HDSLR rigs without modification. By the way, a Switronix cable is necessary to adapt power from this to HDSLR cameras like the Canon EOS 7D and 5DmkII.
