Multi Brace
The Multi Brace is primarily designed to provide the GL-1, TRV900 users with comfort and support. In addition, the Multi Brace offers universal mounting options for accessories: shot gun microphones, wireless receivers, and XLR microphone adapters. The Multi Brace is secured to the camera using its tripod socket. Its accessory platform has three threaded (#6) mounting holes for the optional L-bracket which expands the mounting options even more. Our unique rotating camera support arm allows the user to easily change between the viewfinder and the LCD screen viewing. In addition, it allows for forward adjustment for individual comfort.

Power Multi Brace
Power Multi Brace is an integrated shoulder brace, a battery holder and a voltage regulator. In addition to the Multi Brace (above) functions, it provides for even more comfort and stability thanks to the Panasonic BP50 battery positioned behind the operator shoulder. Inexpensive and long lasting Panasonic batteries will power the camera for over 2.5 hours. The easy to see LED voltage indicators keep the camera person informed of the battery status.

Why Panasonic "stick" batteries?
These rugged batteries have been around for a long time and still remain popular, thanks to several good reasons:
- No "Memory effect" related problems
- Recharged in less than 2 hours
- Lowest cost (about $27)
Why do all our products include the battery status LEDs?
As with many other cameras, the GL-1 remaining battery charge indicator is automatically disabled when an external power source is connected. While using even high capacity external batteries, the camera person can only guess how much running time is left. Our smart voltage monitor circuit helps you not to be caught off guard while shooting a critical event. 11V, 11.5V and 12V LEDs give you a precise indication of the battery charge left.
Step down voltage converter specifications
The DC/DC converter is a very efficient pulse width modulated power supply, which provides for much longer run times than inexpensive linear regulators. It runs cool, as most of the battery charge is delivered to the camera, not dissipated as heat.
