Would this be compatible with the FS5?

question
What does unregulated power outputs mean on this item and is there a risk they could short circuit my camera or connected accessories?
The Sony FS7 can work safely with V mount and gold mount batteries which are nominally rated for 14.4VDC. Nominally in reality means the voltage varies from 14.4VDC. However, no worries on this plate for the voltage from the battery to the camera is regulated to a 11VDC to 17 VDC range and the camera self regulates to these same voltage numbers. Very commonly like here however, the D taps voltage is straight out whatever the battery is outputting with no regulation. If you use it on a light, there is no danger, the light will just dim and go out. If the device is complicated computer circuitry, I would not hook it up unless it had its own internal voltage regulation.

Can you use multiple outputs simultaneously or ...
Can you use multiple outputs simultaneously or just one at a time? I want to power my Sony FS7 and a monitor with just one v-mount battery.
Yes this will supply power to multiple units.

question
Does this unit actually power the camera and how is that connection made?
Yes it powers the camera through a small cable that connects to the DC in port in the back of the camera. You can still have a small sony battery in the camera so it actually becomes hot swappable :)
