My BMPCC OG on Gimbal power?

PostFri Dec 06, 2024 11:28 am

Hi all

Context -I have activated my BMPCC OG´s again (shoot BMPCC 4k + BMCC 6k as well) - some years since my last active period.

Setup- A question growing in this process is related to my Moza Air 2 gimbal. As some know the gimbal deliver 16.8v power - and I have used it successfully for powering the 4k/6k cameras.

Question- (But) ... the 12v terminal on the OG, will that survive the possibly 16-17 volt ?

Comment- I mostly use Smallrigs 12v NP adapter - but the rig would be easier and lighter if I add an Accsoon Seemo as monitor - without the NP-battery/cable connection.

Hope for some help as I would not like to risk to burn my OG power input or camera.

Hi Stein

This is a screen grab from the user manual SD card that came in the box of the BMPCC OG.

If not using the the NP-battery/cable connection, how do you power Accsoon Seemo and phone?

Thanks. I must have that in my archive somewhere - it will be safe.

Oh, I will use the NP on the Seemo - but not the Smallrig mounted NP. Seemo 4k has its own NP mount.
