Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Can you use this with GH5?

A: Sorry, no the GH4 and GH5 are not the same size. You will need one for the GH5. At least a GH5 cage will work with the GH5s.

Q: 2. Does this work for Panasonic GH2 Camera?

A: No, this will not work on the GH2 unfortunately. There was another aftermarket grip available that was never sold by B&H. You may be able to find it in an internet search.

Q: 3. Does this work for the GH5?

A: Yes, this power system is compatible for the Panasonic GH5 camera.

Q: 4. Does it come with a battery?

A: No, a battery is not included with the purchase of the Vello BG-P1 Battery Grip for Panasonic Lumix GH3 and GH4. An additional battery would have to be purchased separately.

Q: 5. will it fit the panasonic lumix g7 also?

A: Hello Davis. The GH4 Cage is form-fitted to the GH4 and only designed for that camera. However, the G7 is slightly smaller than the GH4, so it might work if the mounts on the bottom are in the same place. I cannot guarantee it will, though, and recommend finding a way to get your hands on a cage to try your camera on for testing purposes.

Q: 6. Will this work with the GH5S?

A: The GH5s uses the same battery as the GH4. This cable should work well with the GH5S.

Q: 7. Is it made of the same magnesium material as the gh4 body? If not, what material is it?

A: It is not, this battery grip would be made of a hard plastic.

Q: 8. Could I use this to power a Atomos Shogun?

A: No. This unit would work see linkhttps://a href= http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1324659-REG/indipro_tools_72slsl5_7_2v_regulated_dual_sony.html target= _blank www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1324659-REG/indipro_tools_72slsl5_7_2v_regulated_dual_sony.html/aMFR # 72SLSL5

Q: 9. does it have a 1/4 20 to attach a tripod?

A: Yes, there is a 14 -20 on the bottom for tripods and accessories.

Q: 10. Do I need to buy some sort of AC adapter for this to work? I just need to power for GH4 for hours at a time and won't be able to switch batteries. Incidentally, I'll need to power an Atomos Ninja Assassin at the same time. Is there an adapter that would power both?

A: The tap cable is to connect to an Anton Bauer or Switronix battery on a base plate that can be either mounted on 15mm rods (requires an adapter or cage for the GH-4) or in some cases on a belt mount. The Atomos sells a P-tap adapter for the Ninja Assassin., The A-B batteries will last a long time on this setup, but they are extremely heavy. In any event you will need an entire rig to handle this.There is an alternative if you are indoors with access to 115vac power. There is another adapter for the GH-4 that connects to AC power, and again the monitor has an AC power adapter that came with it.
