The Ultimate Sony NPF Battery | SmallRig NP-F970 Review
There are so many NP-F970 batteries on the market however I think this new one from SmallRig might be the one to get thanks to great build quality and 35w USB-C input and output.

The Creator - The Blockbuster Movie Shot On A $4000 Camera
i was very interested in this until I saw the price. GTFOH. For $70 bucks more you can get the old 99 V mount battery. I am a bit tired of companies - like SmallRig in particular - price gouging us becasue they know we are a very invested and forward thinking community as photographers/videographers. The sad part is I have the money to get it, but when i know you are trying to milk me I have to draw the line. Smh.
Fuck the open gate its bullshit!!! As filmmaker I never use open gate!!! I shoot films not tick tok and RUclips videos
This lens on the Sony A74, Nikon Z5 and Canon R7 and Canon C70 is awesome. I intend to purchase the DSLR Version of this Tamron 35-150mm which is a F2.8-F4
Chiming in to say that there are real negatives to the cheaper NPF batteries on Amazon. I had one blow up while charging and start a fire. If my neighbor wasn't home, I would have lost everything. There are risks to using any lithium battery, but look for the UL mark, unplug if it's getting hot, and use a flameproof charging case wherever possible. I have several Smallrig products and their build quality does lead me to believe they are safer than any random cheap battery. Would still use it with caution.
Can someone help. All I hear is the c70 is better in the shadows and the dog makes it way better. How are you working with the C200 to keep shadows clean and allow highlight recovery.
Can you charge it while it's being used? Like a dummy battety so it's like your camera is plugged in?
npf in 2024? coulda saved your time
It's nice, but it's shocking that I can get a 200Wh V-mount battery on AliExpress with all the usual safety in it and much better ports and for around $90.
So how might one reduce the digital sharpness that this has recorded in post? Gausian blur?
Needed this thank you
Everything smallrig IS OVERPRICED, never buying anything smallrig
Overpriced, Haaa Haaa ain't no way. Even if it is Overpriced, It's for a Reason Brother 🙃, Just think about this battery nothing else it's just perfect. Other than my camera, lens gimbal and monitor. I'm using everything from Small Rig. They've never disappointed me broh, Give it a try trust me you'll love it. And Im sorry to tell you that you've chosen an Expensive Hobby Brother 😅❤
Their cages are well priced. Some of these batteries are.
It's 127 dollars with the adapter plate included, that's not overpriced.
Only YOU have been able to give its target customer base - video bloggers, occasional shooters and the like.
Will it last 5 years?
So I'm trying to get the full experience without worrying about any codec ...I'm guessing just buy a type A cfexpress card. Am I safe to say that's the route?
Regarding to the duo usb-c I would love this and I would go even further and hope that usb-c will replace the hdmi port with protocols like thunderbolt there is no technical argument against it in data transfer speed and imho there are only positive effects like smaller ports and cables and ofc only one type of cable to care and carry around
Such an amazing camera, thanks for the tips.
Could I use this as a pass through device?
Glad you made an independent video talking about it. ✌🏾🔥 Super dope.
Just the lens. The lens is as $18,000 75mm Kowa 2x anamorphic, rehoused by P+S TECHNIK. Glass has always been more important once you cover the basics. (4k 12bit Raw or better) if it was a 16:9 aspect ratio on spherical it wouldn’t have been anywhere near as cool. But Despite this. I bought the fucking FX3 because of this
man, I never thought about using a speed booster on a full frame camera to take advantage of the faster readout times! The s35 mode on the 6kFF is BETTER than the 6k Pro with sensor readout times, too. Thanks for the great video
Thanks for the review! I just found out about this hidden gem. 💎 I have the FX3 and was looking for a good power zoom cinematic lens. Picking it up asap. #legendaryitem
Let me know how you get on. I do a bit of a mix between broadcast and some more cinematic work on gimbal. This seems like a good option- just wish Sony would update
I power the monitor with a V mount but use regular batteries... Much better workflow. I feel that there aren't many FX3 usb C locking options. So you'll have a lot of people jamming their in camera USB C ports by using this method.
Brilliant video thanks
this was the video I Was looking for, I want to know the HD capability.
you work a lot in the sun? Then why do I have to look at this video you sitting in the dark? You got allergic for light?
Great video. How do you think the Sony E 20mm pancake compares to this? Or the 24mm Samyang f.28? I'm looking for a wide angle lens that is lighter, wider and more discreet than my sigma 30mm 1.4 for street photography. I was torn between those two but now I really like the look of this Viltrox! I've got a sony a6000
The Sony is smaller but will only work on APS-C cameras. Obviously not a problem for your A6000 but if you upgrade to full frame in the future it might be annoying.
I bought a Sirui C60B instead. Thje Sirui has a real Bowens mount, and a full size reflector that creates even lighting. It doesn't have the battery issues and doesn't need a battery cord. It has a more quiet fan, and it comes in a much nicer case. The Sirui is more expensive, but the Amaran 60X requires you to buy a full size reflector, a Bowen's adaptor, and comes in an inferior case. The only bad point of the Sirui is the plastic handle it comes with (too weak and too plastic), so I needed to buy an metal umbrella mount instead. The Amaran's handle costs extra to get. Thx for the good review.
Thats good to hear it comes with a full size mount. I haven't tried one myself but certainly would like to check it out.
Film doesn’t look good actually. It is kinda blurry and dark. Now i know why
Very interesting point of view, thank you.
The rolling shutter is also far far better in crop HD. Like otherworldly better
I've noticed that too. It's almost best to treat the A7iv as a APS-C camera which has the ability to go FF when needed.
The a7iv super35 HD is very nice
Just did a video on this with my rig I use a Tilta cage on my channel, so I had to get the one with the quick release.
Have you tried to use the multi cable with the new firmware A7iv?
No not yet. I presume it should work just as well as the FX3
I love you you’re my uncle I’m cillian
I love you you’re my uncle I’m cillian
Good day hope your doing well, You are able to change almost all the buttons on the camera to custom set buttons, I set the front button next to the lens an a operation lock button which would fix your lack of lock dial issue. I shot on Sony A7iv and A7siii from November to late April and honestly I loved to Sony Ecosystem but I will always be a Panasonic user because of the colors and stabilization. I currently own the s5iiX and I've been loving it. You actually taught me something regarding the 3k opengate for high frame rate. Thank you so much.
Just released a video about the 3.3K open gate. Really impressed with the mode and I can see it being incredibly useful.
I made some videos with the fx3 and placed them on RUclips 😮
Can i use this in recording a video but i bounce off the light from a shorter ceiling to lighten up the faces of the subjects under the said short ceiling?
would love to know how one of these might pair up with the lightbridge crls reflectors. Could be a great combo
That would be a great combo. I really want to try them out.
how i can install luts
Hello Mate, do you think it’s worth keeping my sigma 18-35 as im about to get a lumix siix, or shall I sell it and invest into native lens?
For autofocus native lenses are much better. Il do a video on it but I was hoping EF lenses would have worked better
@@JonathanPalfrey Thanks for the reply. Looking forward for the video!
How does compare it to the Sony FX3 in terms of video?
From how I’ve used it so far the FX3 has a much more robust image. You can under or over expose it a lot more than the S5ii. The S5ii image is much more similar to the A7iv which makes sense given the price.
Wow, first to a video lol
this was the First lens a purchased!
Will it work for asc-p?
Yeah should work fine
The only thing that it needs that i really wish it had is power pass through. That way you could just swap batteries without having to replug D-taps
That would be a cool future ‘pro’ version. Hopefully they’d figure out a way to keep it compact
Somy does offer those thing, either via firmware update aka new bodies or only of their R models. One of my biggest regrets was going with Sony
13 stops of dynamic range... lol, FX3 is 15!
no IBIS, no AF. rubbish!
Is the 4k 60p crop an APSC mode or is it just 1.4 crop?? Thanks
APSC crop. The 3.3k crop is quite different though. Same number of pixels overall just less width and more height
