Canon A2300 Mount

Here is a simple mount for the Canon A2300 camera, constructed from an aluminum bracket salvaged from an old scanner plus a piece of angle bracket.  Weight is 186g, including the bracket, fixing bolt, camera and release cable.

I used some foam weatherstrip to pad the part that touches the camera, but I doubt it will reduce any vibrations between the bracket and the camera. 

Still to be addressed:  the connection to the airframe.  It would be interesting to use some sort of shock absorbing link there, not sure what would work...
