  • In this video, I compare the differences between SmallRig's new NP-FZ100 Battery form Sony Camera against the OEM Sony battery. Also what are the benefits of using this battery vs the Sony one and is it worth the purchase?

      Thanks Mark! Yeah it’s an interesting concept. If they charged faster I would seriously consider getting more than just one as a backup

    I have the exact same one, but under the Neewer brand, in brown. I noticed that when I charge and shoot 4K video at the same time on the Sony a7IV, I get overheating. Unfortunately, their Type C does not support fast charging protocols. To do this, I purchased an ISDT NP2 Air charger. It charges the battery in 1.5 hours

    Thanks for the heads up on this product. SmallRig has always produced reliable products in my experience. Most accessories that I buy for my camera usually involve SmallRig at some point. I even bought one of their lights. Another great choice.

      I have their a7S III cage, several top handles, side handle, HDMI cables, Ronin-M ring & feet, shoulder rig, monitor mount, carbon fiber heavy duty tripod legs, and their RC 220B COB light. The ONLY issue I've ever had with their stuff is their VB155 battery where the plastic piece securing the D-Tap port broke and is now loosely hanging, but it still works and SmallRig refunded me without requiring me to send anything back. Call me a fanboy, but their products are great!

    It would be a snug fit, but I’m curious if you’re technically able to have the battery plugged into charging power while it’s being used in the camera. Sorta similar to Sony letting us trickle charge while the camera is operating with the battery inside. My guess is probably not, but would be interesting if a third party allowed something like that.
    It could be beneficial so that our flip out screens don’t smack the USB cable sticking out.

      SmallRig said do not use while charging. Check the Q&A on this battery's product page, it has some other good questions answered.

    *Have you made a Video on Dummy Batteries for the NP-FZ100? I do pretty much all of My Videos at home and that option is nice*

    • @ReachFilms
      @ReachFilms  Рік тому

      I have not yet, main reason is I just use the power through usb, my issue with dummy batteries is there is a much higher chance of frying your camera using them.

    you dont get a warning message in the camera saying its not original battery? I am getting that with the Powerextra FZ100 Battery Replacement for Sony NP-FZ100 batteries from amazon

    • @MuterTerus
      @MuterTerus 3 місяці тому

      Smallrig put note in their official marketplace account in Indonesia, cant be used with FX3 4.0 or FX30 3.0. I think you’ll get the warning with this battery.

      This video was before Sony started disabling the percentage in firmware, so depending on your camera double check what firmware you have. If it’s within the past 6 months this battery may not read percentage

    when you say OEM, you meant Fake, right?

    • @ReachFilms
      @ReachFilms  Рік тому +6

      OEM stands for “Original Equipment Manufacturer” so the batteries made by Sony that are included with the cameras

    • @gigihanmandarin
      @gigihanmandarin Рік тому

      A lot of people butcher the definition of the term term "OEM" but @reach films Jeff nailed it. OEM is supposed to mean "original" but many use that term to mean otherwise. 🤷

    • @Nickporter17
      @Nickporter17 10 місяців тому

      In the automotive industry OEM doesn't mean the parts that came on the car. That's OE or original equipment. Like you said, OEM just means the original manufacturer.

    • @gigihanmandarin
      @gigihanmandarin 10 місяців тому

      ​@@Nickporter17 You are right, but kinda confusing. OEM, Original Equipment Manufacturer, just means a company which makes parts for a brand. For example, if "XYZ Battery Company" makes batteries for Sony, and Sony's brand is slapped onto the batteries, it means XYZ is an OEM. It is synonymous with "original parts".
      I have noticed some people confuse "OEM" with "compatible third party products" which should be corrected.
