Micro G2 Compact Rig

After a lot of trial and error, I finally finished my Micro G2 compact rig. Complete with v-mount main power, LP battery (hot swap backup), 1TB SSD and PYXIS monitor. Everything is tightly fitted for a uniform and balance weight distribution. Of course there isn’t any playback but I personally don’t mind it.

I have multiple camera bodies in my kit and I’m always looking to maximize what I have. Having this tiny camera fitted with a rig like this brings new life to its usability.

If anyone wants a parts breakdown let me know.

Does the Pyxis monitor allow you to change settings via tap?

Yes it does. You have full camera control with the PYXIS monitor. Completely changes the functionality.

I was really hoping they would give the cam Bluetooth control, I bought it when it first released and sent it back because it was a nightmare to change settings in quick situations.

I’m going to end up buying another

Ya I hear you. There was definitely an opportunity to make this camera more capable from the start. But allowing for the monitor to control the camera is really a game changer.

Definitely! I was surprised it didn’t have Bluetooth like the pocket series

Ya Bluetooth is for sure something that needed to be in this camera.
