Description of πŸ’‘ BMPCC 4K D Tap Power Cable for Pocket Cinema Camera 4K - Gold Mount/V Mount Battery, Weipu 2 Pin Female to P Tap - Alvin's Cables

D-Tap (P-Tap) Power cable for the new Pocket 4K Camera from BMD. Every cable was tested to ensure that there are no short circuit ,no potential breakdown problems before shipping, the polarity of our cable must be correct.There is a key on the 2 pin connector, please match the key to plug in, please don't insert the 2 pin plug or d-tap connector inversely. Plug A: 2 pin female. Plug B: Standard male D-Tap. The 2 pin connector is a push-pull self-locking connector. It will automatically lock when inserted into the camera. It is impossible to pop off. You should pinch the top of the 2 pin connector, which will easily pull it out, rather than pull out by pinching directly the cable or the bottom of the connector. The Min length is about 15inches (38cm). The Max length is about 31.5 inches (80cm).

does the job. - Cables and wires

The only reason I don't give it five stars is the V-mount battery connection randomly disconnects and disables my BMPCC 4K. I would like it to be tighter/tighter on the battery. However, it fits snugly in the camera body.

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Some bugs

Everything has been great so far

Bought this for my BMPCC4K to keep using my V-mount batteries. This cable is well constructed and I will be ordering at least 2 more soon in case I lose it. I would recommend this to anyone who has a BMPCC4K and runs their camera on V-mounts instead of Canon batteries.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Hard to say

It worked great, then no.

I have had this product since January and use it weekly. I was shooting today and suddenly the camera turned off. I thought maybe my battery was dead but it turned out to be charged. I put in a Canon battery and the camera came up with no problems. I can only assume that the cable just broke? Makes no sense, but that's what troubleshooting led me to do. sucks.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • Definitely bad product

Look for other alternatives

This cable worked great until it failed. I take good care of my gear after use so my cords don't kink or deform, but that happened to me after a few months. I chose it over the other options because I didn't want to skimp on hardware, but what's the use of an expensive cable that doesn't work when you need it?

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Not bad

Great cable for camera and photo

From what I understand this is a necessary part of the kit. If you want to use the BMPCC6K or BMPCC4K for professional use, a V-mount battery is required and this cable will allow you to use it. It has worked flawlessly so far and I'm willing to bet that if not abused it will last for quite a while. Great affordable cable and I love the coil design. Even with a 1V bayonet battery, I can use it to charge my BMPCC6K all day long!

Pros
  • This is great
Cons
  • Useless features

Very loose connector

This connector supplies power to the BMPCC, but it is so loose that it looks like it might come loose at any moment. If they made a tight fitting cable I would give them 5 stars but it's such a loss I give it a 60% chance it will ever come loose so they lose 60% of the stars. 2 stars. Try finding another, tighter cable.

Pros
  • Cables and wires
Cons
  • Not sure

Cons
  • Disappearing

Works as long as you don't need it. Poor quality control

You would think a $33 cable would last more than 3 months. I bought 2 of these and both failed in production. One cable simply no longer feeds the camera, the other has come loose from the connector. The cables appear to be of good quality in general, but they stopped working after 3 months of normal use. I always disassemble my gear so the cables don't get twisted or snagged in awkward places.

Pros
  • Camera and photo
Cons
  • Very expensive
