Vortex Media EXDC1 12v 4-Pin XLR Male to Sony Power Cable for the PMW-EX1, PMW-EX3 Camcorders and XDCAM Drives

Power your new PMW-EX1 or PMW-EX3 camera with your existing 12v DC power supplies and battery packs. A great feature of Sony's XDCAM EX cameras is that they can be powered by other external 12v DC power sources.

And if you're like many EX owners, you probably already have other 12v batteries and professional 12v AC adapters that you'd like to use with your camera.

The problem is, until now, it has been difficult to actually connect other professional power sources to the camera because of Sony's non-standard DC input jack.

But now that problem is solved. The EXDC1 from Vortex Media allows you to easily and safely power your Sony EX1 and EX3 cameras (andeven accessory drives) from just about any 12v power source*. The 1.8 m (6 ft) EX1DC cable has a standard 4-pin XLR connector power connector at one end and Sony's non-standard DC plug at the other end.

Now you can use AC adapters and battery systems from Anton Bauer, IDX, Sony, Frezzi, and others. If you've already got a professional 12v battery and/or AC adapter -- chances are they can nowbe used with your EX camera.
