does the job. Appears to be well built.

I use this on my Panasonic GH4. The supplied dummy battery does not work with the GH4 so I had to purchase another dummy battery (D-Tap) made specifically for the GH4 in the B&H photo. I am using an AV mount battery with Soonwell and a D-Tap GH4 dummy battery and it works fine. I connect my GH4 and an external 7 inch monitor. Soonwell has other outlets as well. Its durability has yet to be determined, but it looks and feels pretty solid. Very light weight. Haven't used it much yet.

Pros
  • Camera and photo
Cons
  • Long delivery time

Tried two of them. None of them worked

When I received the first I found that my Maxoak 158Wh batteries would not click into the locked position and would not make contact with the electrical connectors. I then tried my smaller Batteries4Broadcast 95Wh V-Mounts. I managed to latch and connect them, but it took far more effort than any other V-mount battery plate I've ever used in my 30 year career. Since I need to use ALL my batteries (even rental ones) I sent them back. But I was willing to try the second, just in case the first…

  • I will write later

BEWARE! NO direct replacement for the LP-E6 battery!

I gave two stars because the mount is pretty solid and appears to be of decent quality, but the included LP-E6 (DR-E6) adapter is NOT a direct replacement for the LP-E6. I bought this pack specifically for the LP-E6 adapter. See the photo I've attached. The battery has two grooves, one on each side, the adapter has a groove on one side only. The battery pack has a square hole at the top for a locking lug, the adapter doesn't have one. I wanted this for my Blackmagic Design Micro Cinema Camera…

Pros
  • Electronics
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging
