Finding replacement batteries for a DV Steadicam rig
What the thread found
- DV Steadicam batteries were typically proprietary assemblies resembling six AA batteries bundled together and shrink-wrapped with two wires terminating in a small plastic male connector that plugged into the rig's battery compartment.
- The manufacturer Tiffen may be able to provide specifications or replacement battery packs for the DV Steadicam.
Depends on
- The original poster could not locate battery specifications in the available documentation.
- No confirmation whether replacement batteries are still available or affordable.
- The built-in monitor functionality may need to be abandoned if a suitable battery replacement cannot be sourced.
