But you'd have to purchase a V-mount charger and a Pocket 4K D-Tap to Weipu power cable. * I think that the V-mount battery might actually cost less. See this post, and the one following, for specifics on the compact V-mount batteries that I'm talking about: viewtopic.php?f=2&t=105319&start=300#p708354 Others may see things differently, but it seems to me that the solution described in the previous paragraph is cost-effective, simpler, lighter and less bulky. As a result of very aggressive pricing, the price is comparable to that for Core SWX's competitors' 50Wh compact V-mounts. It's a bit heavier and bulkier than a 50Wh V-mount, but still much less than the IndiPro setup. If you really need the 90Wh that two NP-F 970 batteries would provide, Core SWX has just released a compact V-mount that will do that. If you have a monitor, you already have batteries for it, and using them means that you aren't using one battery source to power multiple devices.
Total: 1,180g (41oz or 2.6lb).įor about the same money, one can purchase one of the newer 50Wh compact V-mount batteries.* It will fit in a shirt pocket and weigh about 300g (10.6oz). Figure on an additional 635g (22oz) for two NP-F 970 batteries. The thing that strikes me is that the IndiPro plate costs US$170 plus the cost of two NP-F batteries. If the IndiPro plate addresses the problem that people have had with powering both the camera and a monitor, that also isn't apparent from the description. Some may be content with plates, such as IndiPro's, that have unreglated power and, unless it's missing from the description, no current protection. Others may think that the plate that Wooden Camera designed with advice from Anton/Bauer, and that has what is effectively a fuse, is sufficient. Some people will choose to use a power distribution box with regulated power. I think that this is all about how much risk one is prepared to accept. It also has four unregulated D-Tap ports that can be used to power select lights, monitors, and accessories.Īccording to the specs, the D-Tap ports put out 12-16VDC.
This plate uses two widely available NP-F/Sony L-Series type batteries and a hardwired, coiled cable to power your camera.
