This is a short video clip showing two tennis players hitting balls across two roof-top car parks :confused:

http://news.sky.com …er/0,,30000-1270505,.html (external link)

Right at the beginning of the clip, there is a tog, seemingly using a Canon camera, but with a gadget (looks like an antenna of some sort) pertruding above the card door/slot?

Anyone any ideas what it is? Looks like a transmitter, maybe the new WFT-E2?, but I thought that fiited onto the other side.

TO me it looks like one of the third party uplinks, usually the pro news guys have an uplink to a box in their vehicle / van that wires each picture instantly after it's been taken to the news organisation.
