Add a professional high-capacity battery to power your Canon C300 Mark III or C500 Mark II cinema camera with this Gold mount Battery Slide from Wooden Camera. The battery slide mounts onto your camera using its captive screws and sits at an angle with a movable hinge to allow you to access the camera's BP-U battery.

The slide mounts a single Gold mount battery and powers the camera using a 4-pin XLR cable, which also provides hot-swap capability with the camera's internal battery. There are three D-Tap outputs around the battery plate to power a variety of other accessories.

Q: 1. Description says it sits at an angle. That makes sense for hot swapping, but can it also sit flush against the back of the camera? That's what I'm looking for for hand held. An angled battery would be just as uncomfortable as the stupid canon battery design as it is.
