Rated 5 out of 5

Used with FS5/Shogun Inferno Combo

I use 2 of these batteries to simultaneously power my FS5 and a Shogun Inferno via the D-Tap out. With 4K ProRes recording on the Shogun, I get about 3-4 hours of run time per battery.

Works great with FS7

Works great with the FS7 get about 3-4 hours of 4k record time out of one battery and works with the standard charger. About half as expensive as the comparable sony batter and includes a dtap and usb. Need an adapter to make the d-tap usable as it sits under the FS7 body, but that can be purchased for $
