Gold Mount Plus D-Box
The onboard hot-swap capability with DC-In power allows the Gold Mount Plus D-Box to provide seamless transitions between power sources. For expanded accessory power distribution, the 5-pin EXT port enables connection to the VENICE Power Strip, allowing users to power multiple accessories. This upgrade is ideal for those who already own a VENICE Gold or V-Mount D-Box and want improved power efficiency without replacing their entire system.
The Gold Mount Plus D-Box also includes 2x D-Tap connectors at 15V regulated, with a maximum 5.8A current rating shared between connectors, providing additional power for external accessories. Additional connectors include a 4-Pin XLR Cable that powers the camera body and an 8-Pin 2B connector for DC-In.
This D-Box also includes LED indicators for real-time updates:
● DC IN – Green when powered through the 8-pin connector
● BATTERY – Blue when the battery alone is powering the camera
● 3.8A – Red if an overload occurs
● 5.8A – Red if an overload occurs
The Gold Mount Plus D-Box can be purchased as a standalone accessory or as a system that includes a cable and Power Strip.
The Gold Mount Plus D-Box System for Sony VENICE retails for $1,995 USD.
ARRI LPL Mount for Sony VENICE, VENICE 2, and BURANO
The ARRI LPL Mount for Sony VENICE, VENICE 2, and BURANO allows for the use of select LPL lenses, such as the ARRI Signature primes and zooms, with Sony’s high-end cinema cameras.
The LPL mount features direct lens pogo connections for full metadata pass-through. This mount also transmits internal /i lens data from smart lenses or translated external lens data from remote focus motor drivers directly to the camera.
For external data transmission, users can connect the LDT-R2 or LDT-V2 from DCS to record real-time lens values directly into the metadata headers of the camera footage, making any lens a smart lens.
The mount features high-precision manufacturing and accurate flareage, with flocked aluminum construction to minimize unwanted reflections and flare artifacts. It is factory-calibrated to industry standards and includes a shimmable design for fine-tuning flange depth.
For added versatility, the ARRI LPL to PL Adapter is fully compatible, allowing users to quickly switch from standard PL lenses to LPL lenses while maintaining full data pass-through.
This mount works with:
● ARRI LPL Signature Lenses with Impression Filters
● ARRI LPL to PL Adaptor
● Leitz Hugo Lenses
● LDT systems from DCS
The ARRI LPL Mount v2 for Sony VENICE, VENICE 2, BURANO Cameras retails for $1,499 USD.
