What's a good solution to mount the 600R to a light stand while on location?
Thanks in advance.

Why not just mount the pack on the stud? Yeah I am looking into sandbags too... Although with this pack, it will definitely help act as one. I think I've found a solution... René Damkot wrote in post #7773997 The generator? Lumedyne has an "POWER PACK HANGER & CLAMP ". Something like that might work.You could also just use a Manfrotto Magic Arm with super clamp I suppose. Or a bungee cord  Thread: Click What is it you want to accomplish? That bracket is what I just bought earlier this morning. I forgot to update this thread sooner. I want to mount the pack to the light stand when I am shooting.

The stud will allow me to connect a light to it though if I am ever in a situation where I need a light in a funky spot. I've read where this clamp has been attached to other various things to get a light in a certain spot. And, an extra stud never hurts 5D4 | 50 1.4 | 85L II | 24-70L II | 70-200 2.8L IS II
