JayTee,

What hardware did you use to mount the DSLR to the GT mount? I am getting a T2i in the next week.

It's very simple.

Get one of these.

Use the countersunk holes on either end with 1/4-20 supplied hex screws. Screw the bar to the base of the DSLR. Clamp the bar into the mount.

Away you go.

RS,

Any pictorial products from this project? I would love to see what you've achieved so far.

Cheers,
