kitchentable Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 What are your thoughts ? This looks quite elegant [img]http://www.soonwell.com/ebay_file/pro_pic/Cat-NPPower_04.jpg[/img] [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DSLR-Rig-NP-F970-or-F550-Battery-Power-Supply-15mm-Rod-Rail-System-5D2-60D-/251068586329?_trksid=p2045573.m2042&_trkparms=aid%3D111000%26algo%3DREC.CURRENT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D27%26meid%3D1836902134706982088%26pid%3D100033%26prg%3D1011%26rk%3D2%26#ht_4955wt_1378"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/DSLR-Rig-NP-F970-or-F550-Battery-Power-Supply-15mm-Rod-Rail-System-5D2-60D-/251068586329?_trksid=p2045573.m2042&_trkparms=aid%3D111000%26algo%3DREC.CURRENT%26ao%3D1%26asc%3D27%26meid%3D1836902134706982088%26pid%3D100033%26prg%3D1011%26rk%3D2%26#ht_4955wt_1378[/url] This next one has been proven working with the BMC already apparently [img]http://www.hawkwoods.com/products/details/images/DV-A1_Large.jpg[/img] [url="http://www.creativevideo.co.uk/index.php?t=product/hawk-woods_dv-a1"]http://www.creativevideo.co.uk/index.php?t=product/hawk-woods_dv-a1[/url] Or there is the DIY option like this [img]http://i692.photobucket.com/albums/vv290/paul_liangqh/9800mAbattery2.jpg[/img] [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/12V-Rechargeable-Li-on-Battery-9800mAH-Portable-4-CCTV-/280645322623?pt=UK_ConsumerElectronics_Batteries_SM&hash=item4157c3c77f#ht_3969wt_1144"]http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/12V-Rechargeable-Li-on-Battery-9800mAH-Portable-4-CCTV-/280645322623?pt=UK_ConsumerElectronics_Batteries_SM&hash=item4157c3c77f#ht_3969wt_1144[/url] I like the elegance of the first one, the second one is a bit more stealth as it doesn't tie you into a rail system while the last one appeals on both the stealth and the cost option. Think I might go for 1 and 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Andrew Reid Posted September 5, 2012 Administrators Share Posted September 5, 2012 I'll be trying this first. It is like the nice FS100 battery, lasts for hours but very compact and can screw onto the base or a cage. [url="http://www.switronix.com/products/batteries?page=shop.product_details&category_id=39&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=86"]http://www.switronix...l&product_id=86[/url] They do it for the BMCC as well as DSLRs. They also do a BMCC mounting plate for V-lock batteries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitchentable Posted September 5, 2012 Author Share Posted September 5, 2012 I like the look of that. I'm such a mingebag though, I'll no doubt end up stuffing the cheapo battery I put in as option 3 in a Maplin project box and adding tripod mounting ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
