IDX Powers Canon's New
C300 Mark II 4K Camera

I

DX has announced the release of the
AT-E2CMKII - an ENDURA V-Mount
battery adaptor plate for Canon's new
C300 Mark II camera.

The V-Mount adaptor plate allows
IDX ENDURA V-Mount batteries to
power the C300 Mark II.
It is equipped with a genuine Lemo

connector for a direct connection
to the camera and offers (2) D-Tap
outputs, capable of handling 50W
each, for powering ancillary gear

(monitors, lights, recorders, etc.).
IDX's signature V-Plate design offers
flexible mounting with three industry
standard screw-hole patterns to adapt
to virtually any cheese plate or camera
support rod mounting accessory.
"We are happy to expand our
V-Mount accessory line with the ATE2CMKII Canon C300 Mark II adaptor
plate," said Tomo Nishikawa, General
Manager, IDX System Technology.
"Canon continues to deliver great
cameras and we are honoured to
continually build our relationship
with them by delivering great power
solutions for their cameras."
Nishikawa added: "We understand
that the C300 Mark II comes with an
on-board battery, which is perfect
for run and gun/handheld shoots;
however, when it comes to shooting
composed shots that include many
accessories, a larger battery is
necessary to power everything. This
is where we see our new product help
maximise production efficiency."
The AT-E2CMKII will be available
worldwide from October 2015.

Bexel Global Continues International
Expansion And Plugs In At IBC
T

he EMEA and US teams from
Bexel Global Broadcast Solutions,
a leading worldwide provider of
broadcast services and solutions,
were recently on hand for IBC in
Amsterdam. They spent their busy
show engaged with broadcasters and
live event customers who continue to
push production boundaries; seeking
expertise and top-tier equipment to
help them bring the most engaging
content to their audiences.
Bexel Global has been delivering
unparalleled
experience
and
engineering excellence to customers
for decades, and the company's
expansion into the EMEA market
earlier this year has seen keen
interest from the marketplace. EMEA
Managing Director Richard Satchell,
who spent IBC meeting with new and
existing customers, found that "the
demand for the entire spectrum of
production services and gear is clearly
a growing trend in the region and
around the globe. What we heard from
our customers was that they must
continue to 'up the experience' for the

audience. Our broadcast clientele want
and need the support of the very best
equipment, operators and engineering
expertise, while maintaining their
budget in the process. And that's why
we're in this region. Bexel Global does
that better than anyone else."
Bexel Global has a storied history of
supporting the world's highest profile
live events with expert production
services, equipment rentals, flypack
systems and integration solutions.
The company recently supported Pope
Francis' Apostolic visit to Ecuador
with infrastructure and installations
underpinning the multi-city, multi-stop
itinerary.
The project included challenging
locations, the build-out of two
International
Broadcast
Centres,
multiple stabilised and wireless
camera systems to cover the
popemobile as it moved from place
to place, the support of international
press distribution needs, and working
as part of a multinational team to
securely and efficiently execute the
broadcast coverage of the event.

Bringing in a team of 60 technicians
and more than 500 pieces of
equipment weighing over 27,000
kilograms, Bexel Global played a
pivotal role in ensuring that the papal
visit was flawlessly executed.
Serving as Vitec Videocom's
Production Services business unit, the
Bexel Global umbrella also includes
Autocue and Autoscript Hire, Camera
Corps and The Camera Store (TCS),
which continue to offer professional
broadcast solutions from innovative

remote camera packages to end-toend teleprompting support. Bexel
Global's EMEA offerings include
specialised fibre optic solutions, expert
support services, and affordable,
scaleable flypacks widely used in
broadcast. Satchell concludes: "The
unification of these world-class
companies puts an entire spectrum
of solutions into the hands of our
customers. From concept to final
broadcast, and all the steps along the
way, Bexel Global has the answer."
