The Sony DC-C1 DC Coupler is a professional power solution designed to provide uninterrupted power to compatible Sony cameras that use either the Sony NP-FZ100 Battery or Sony NP-FW50 Battery. It replaces the standard battery with a dummy power adapter, allowing continuous operation when connected to an external USB Power Delivery (USB-PD) source.
By supporting USB-PD input of at least 65W, the DC-C1 enables long recording sessions without the need to swap or recharge batteries. This makes it especially useful for video production, live streaming, studio work, and time-lapse photography where consistent power is essential.
The unit is designed to be compact and lightweight, making it easy to integrate into professional camera rigs without adding unnecessary bulk. It connects directly into the camera’s battery compartment and uses a USB-C cable for power input. A locking mechanism helps secure the cable during operation, preventing accidental disconnection during shoots.
Once powered, an indicator light confirms stable operation, giving users confidence in continuous recording conditions. For proper use, a USB-PD power source (minimum 65W) and a 5A-rated USB-C cable are required.
