SmallRig VB99 Pro Reviews

Paid for new, got used condition

Great battery but, despite taped packaging seeming untouched, internal packaging torn, battery shows slight marking to yellow finish and silicone dust cover marked as though it was removed and reinstalled. I don't mind used products but when I purchase new I expect new condition! Box also showed signs of being dropped!

It’s great!

How long will these battery last on an r5c?
Asked by: Nikolas
The run time of the Canon EOS R5 C Mirrorless Cinema Camera on the SmallRig VB99 Pro Mini V-Mount Battery will depend on your settings, usage, and the accessories attached. Generally, one would expect the battery to last about 2.5-3.5 hours under normal conditions. High quality resolutions and frame rates will reduce run times.
