Really useful but of kit, however, the fact that you cannot detach the duty battery cable via a clip makes storing it in a pain in the backside. Additionally you then need a DC converter and further plug to charge the batteries. Its just so badly designed.. however it does work well on long shoots, albeit they haven't though a bit about how one should connect this to the camera.

I don't do any videoing so this excellent, and very useful, battery adaptor is underutilized in my workflow. However, it is extremely convenient for hustle free, and desk tidy use. Very well made, as you would expect at the price.

I need to power the camera for long shoots, to run it off AC or at least have other fully charged batteries is a necessity.

This brick only charges batteries, and IF they are all charged, it will only power your camera.. it will die when batteries required to attach die, would not use for all day shoots... Also, the cable is so extremely short from the camera to the heavy block, it also does not come with two way screws to put it under your camera.. poor design. thank you.

I knocked off one star, simply because this superb piece of kit doesn't allow me to remove the battery dummy, and it shouldn't be hard wired as it is.

4 of them, which is very handy when shooting with multiple bodies. Especially when one of them is the a7iii which doesn’t come with a charger. Haven’t used the block to power anything itself. My only gripe is that the cable with the ‘dummy’ battery does not detach and gets in the way a bit.

I LIKE IT BECAUSE I CAN CHARGE WITH USB CHARGING PORT. IT ALSO IS A PLACE WHERE I CAN STORE THE BATTERY. WORKS GREAT AND I AM VERY HAPPY WITH IT

Great second battery to have on hand for my new camera.

I bought this when it first came out and it's a great product, love it. It's a yes, buy it from me.

Love, love my Sony A7ii camera. Hate that I have to use this really poor life battery in it. Makes me want to try non-Sony alternatives. Top of the line price - bottom of the pile performance.

Right to the one thing I wish was different; fixed cable for the "Plug-in Plate." For travel, one can always take the small single battery chargers; however, it would have been nice to haul the Multi Battery Kit instead. On the plus side, taking several single battery chargers means you have a spare. I'll probably attach it to my camera stand in studio and leave it there. Naturally, does the job of charging batteries well. It's a bit of a complex device for what it does, but not an issues for me. If you have two or more a9 bodies, you'll most likely have at least four batteries, so this is a nice way to charge them. Keep in mind, it does not charge a single battery faster than the single charger, so four batteries take 480-600 minutes from empty to full charge. It wold be very unusual for me to have more than one or two discharged, so not an issue. If I found myself having more discharged batteries (using two bodies), I'll buy additional batteries.

Battery life under constant use is only very average. On a recent four week trip I needed three batteries. Two batteries a day is required and essential and if any lengthy video recording then three. The batteries are compact and charge quickly in the powered adaptor but do not charge quickly through the camera charging system. The battery replacement system is easy and well designed in the camera. The battery life is short under constant use so don't expect to get a few days on one battery.

I expected better battery options for Nex-6
