Here are Olof's notes on the new shoulder brace for the Canon 305. I've tried it and I think it is the most comfortable yet. The EVF (this is a Zacuto in the photos) is completely adjustable which will help with neck and shoulder strain. The camera weight is right on your shoulder and is well balanced. You can add a battery plate to the back and put a wireless receiver in the bag. The first beta kit has gone out and we should be putting these into production soon. There will also be a way to mount rails.
This style brace should soon be available for the Panasonic Af100 and the Sony EX1/1R.
An AB goldmount plate or an IDX plate can also be added in the back plate to power the camera and accessories. The back plate will hold wireless mics and/or an external recorder or other accessories.
The EVF shoe mount: $150.00
The shaped shoulder bracket with foam: $150.00
The "Cheese Plate" in the back of the Shoulder Brace: $45.00
The Bag in the back is $15.00 it can hold spare batteries , wireless mics etc, and acts as balancing counterweight.
IDX battery plates with 7.4v power cable for the camera: $280.00
AB battery plate with 7.4v power cable for the camera: $250.00
You can order any part separately at any point.
