Mounting a Transvideo Evolution 8-inch monitor to existing camera rig brackets designed for smaller monitors
14 years old. Gear and prices may have changed since.
What the thread found
- The Transvideo Evolution 8-inch monitor is wider than older 7-inch monitors and may not fit into existing U-shaped monitor brackets without proper adaptation
- The correct mounting solution requires knowing the distance between the rods and their diameter to select an appropriate yoke bracket adaptor
- Transvideo manufactures yoke bracket adaptors specified by rod spacing and diameter measurements, such as a 89/16 model indicating 89mm spacing and 16mm rod diameter
- Specialist suppliers like Tiffene offer pre-assembled bracket solutions with proper spacers configured for specific monitor models and rig setups
- The Quattro Monitor Arm from cam-jam.de is an alternative mounting solution compatible with the Transvideo Evolution monitor on various rigs
Depends on
- The thread does not provide measurements or confirmation of rod specifications for the specific rig in question
- No detailed information is given about whether the suggested solutions were ultimately successful or how well they performed
- The recommendations come from forum members rather than official documentation
