Add your cable of choice to complete the basic set up.

Tip: Add the ONsite Relay C Camera Power System to this workstation to avoid having to change batteries in your camera while its mounted. Attach your battery pack with the StrapMoore to keep your camera and tablet powered throughout your shoot.
