Popular camera accessories manufacturer, Wooden Camera just announced a power distribution box for V-mount batteries called the D-Box and designed for the new Canon C300 Mark II. Canon C300 shooters will find the new Wooden Camera D-Box for the C300 Mark II in V-mount very useful as it allows them to use popular V-mount batteries to power the new Canon 4K camera.
