Review on Compact SMALLRIG DV Battery Plate Adapter for BMPCC/BMCC/BMPC - 1765: Enhance Your Camera's Battery Capability by Nicholas Lim

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Make my BMPCC 4K camera work for hours!

This device solves the problem of constant battery replacement with BMPCC 4K. You can also change the battery without turning off the camera. A Sony NP-F970 battery lasts an hour and a half. The only problem is that it is very bulky but when I use a tripod it can be placed perfectly as it has a belt strap that allows you to tie it to your leg. I found a way to use it with the DJI Ronin S as a counterweight on one of the unit's shoulders without placing it directly on top of the camera. That's just under the 8-pound weight limit with the big Sony battery. This placement prevents the cable from getting tangled when the gimbal moves.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • unreliable
