BP-U60 Batteries

[Michael Palmer]

Just don’t leave the battery on the camera over night, you definately won’t like that.

Good Luck

Good eve,I just joined CCW,Looks like a very helpful place to be, I am thinking about buying an EX1. I am local (LA Ca.) JIB owner op. and last year I had the HVX 200 on so mush I was going to buy one until Band Pro guys said to wait for this camera.
What happen to the batteries?

Michael. I am a new member but I thought (if you havent already seen this) may like this zoom control. I used it today on the EX1 and it’s much smother than VZ.

[Phillip ebed] “What happen to the batteries?”

Phillip, welcome to Creative Cow. If you leave the battery attached it will drain down to nothing in about 3 days even when the camera is off. No official response from Sony yet as to the reason.

Thanks Phillip, I haven’t seen this unit as yet, I made a purchase yesterday for the VariZoom lens control. I also found out that the VariZoom unit doesn’t have the speed control dial like some of there other units, does the Libec have a dial to control the speed besides the rocker lever? The link you posted is only a picture.

And yes as Don said the batteries drain themselves if left on the EX1.

Good Luck

Just the rocker on the Libec

The Zoe EX has a stepless speed control wheel on the right side of the control body.

Good Morn, guys the Libec in my opinion Is far smother and has MUCH better response Vs the VZ or BeBoB, Ive used all three on the jibs,the BB andVZ many time the libec once, it can control full ENG Fuji or Canon lenses (connects to the regula remote zoom in the bottom of the lens)also with a click of the switch on the side.Start stop is at a nice location also, Just all around feels,reacts better and is more useful.Im hopefully getting mine to keep with the Jibs and (hopefully my EX1)this week,If your Local LA let me know and you can try it out.
Or go to Able Cine(ask for Jerode Let him know you spoke to me)
they have it there here is a link I think is better,idont know this Comp

450 minutes???? How so? It’s a 4 hour battery and mine shows 260 minutes. Have you found a way to “overcharge” it?
