DBox for PC101

[TheMonkey 0]

Bonehead makes a one-size-fits-none dbox for pc cameras now. as opposed to 'clam shell' design of past, the camera is dropped in from the top on the new design. The box looks bigger and bulkier, and is rather unappealling seeing as i bought the camera for it's size. Any suggestions? X-Jacket? btw, a camera condom wouldn't work as i am extremely clumsy and dumb and bang my head around a lot!

thanks, The Monkey

Older PC-5 and PC-9 boxes should hold the PC-101 as well.

Look in the classifieds on here. You might have to get an existing setup and strip it down, but the options are our there.

You might try http://www.uffeshoppshop.se/. They had one some weeks ago. Actually it was to big so I preferred to build my own w/ fibreglass.

Jason Cooke makes a carbon fibre box for the 101. Haven't seen one but his helmets are a work of art so it's safe to assume the boxes will be of the same high quality.
He's in Australia (you'll love the exchange rate to Aussie dollars)
E-mail him on [email protected] and I'm sure he'll be able to send you prices & pics.

Thanks Grumpy for your kind words. Yeah I have just made some caron fibre boxes for PC101/PC9 camera's. There are COOL!!! Drop me a line at [email protected] if you wish to check them out. Currently $1USD gets you $2 Aussie dollars so they are well priced.

Cheers

I'm very desapointed by the new box bonehead make for the PC series..... hope they will be back with a really good one for PC-101,

The Monkey and I both ordered one from Cookie. It fit's pretty much like a glove! Clam shell based. It's quite obvious that the mold for a PC101 was used. They were great to deal with and provide a quality product. I suggest some type of foam shock absorber. I am still waiting on my new helmet, but I think it will work perfect!

Thanks to you, I think I'll have something to keep me busy this weekend and the next.
I've found me a store here that sells fiber glass stuff to make me a d-box.

Here it is in case anybody else dares to.

Hey XDV,
My camera boxes are $165 USD plus postage. They are cool, functional and weigh only 80 grams. I have a few ready to go.

Cookie's dbox kicks ass! only mod i made to mine was to add and extra strap, but that was cake....fits the camera like a glove! Usually I would say that Freakous is an ass, but in this case he definitely hit the nail on the head!

The fact that Freakous can successfully hit a nail on its head certainly does not exclude him from being an ass.

Cookie's dbox is very nice. The second vertical closure Monkey added helps with security. I prefer some more lens coverage also but, I use larger lenses on my PC100.

Freakous,
There is nothing like getting busted on by someone who hasn't even jumped a camera yet. After all the video I've shot of you and nothing in return. That's harsh.

PSW,

My apologies for speaking the truth. I will sugarcoat for you in the future.

Thks Cookie, to you make some other stuff like this case... and qill you make other for the next generation of Sony PC model

[Cookie 0]

Yes XDV, There will be some new stuff coming out shortly. I've been making helmets in OZ for 7 years now on the word of mouth basis. A good friend has convinced me to go public with my helmets/boxes etc. I also make full face camera helmets (Rear entry) with flat top and front for stills, freefly helmet's and it looks like a box for the PC100/120 is coming. I thank you all for your positive feedback as it just makes for a better box/helmet. A web site cookiecomposites.com will be up in about a week.
