Essential For Extended Recording

By FS890
Rated 5 out of 5
Date: 2026-03-08

This product works like a charm. I’ve had it for quite a while now without any issues. This is essential for YouTubers, podcasters, and any other person who needs to let the record option on their camera run for an extended period of time. Batteries will go out, and your camera will cut off. You don’t have to worry about that with this product.

Great having this adapter so as to record without having to stop and swap out batteries. There was a time or two when my camera lost signal to the computer. Turned it off and back on and it was restored. Not sure if that was related to the adapter or not but no problems since.

This adapter is for the older Sony E mount cameras that utilize the NP-FW50. Since the A7S III uses the newer NP-FZ100 battery, the IndiPRO Tools AC Power Supply with NP-FZ100 Dummy Battery, BH # INACSA73 would be a better option. https://bhpho.to/2OwkBiH

Why isn't this compatible with the ZV-1? ZV-1 powered by USB event full 1.5 amps runs the battery down during filming.
Asked by: Matthew
The Sony AC Adapter for Select Sony Cameras (B&H# SOACPW20) is equipped with a dummy battery (sometimes called a DC coupler) that is in the right shape (and with its electrical contacts in the right positions) to work with Sony cameras that use the Sony NP-FW50 battery. However, your Sony ZV-1 takes the smaller Sony NP-BX1 battery since it will be used with smaller devices. As such, you'll need an AC adapter for your ZV-1 like this one instead: IndiPRO Tools AC Power Supply with Sony NP-BX1-Type Dummy Battery (8') (B&H# INACNPBX): https://bhpho.to/3Cn5CvQ
