Would anyone know if the battery tray from the VGC1EM grip will fit the VGC2EM grip?

 

Looking to buy an extra tray but can only find the part number for the 1EM and Reliable Parts who is the Sony distributor has no part # for the 2EM.

 

Thanks for any help.

I have both grips and yes, the battery trays appear to be interchangeable and identical.

 

Do you have a Sony part number for the tray since I also would like to order spares? Pre loaded they're an ideal way to store batteries. I've filled the square depressions with the battery numbers in (1 and 2) with white paint. If you carefully rub the area with a cloth after the paint has (almost) dried it exposes the raised black battery identification numbers against a white background.

I am also interested in the Sony part number for the battery tray. I shoot a lot of video so have eight batteries and three chargers. The tray is a convenient way to carry them.

 

Another issue is some airlines have restrictions about number of carry-on li-ion batteries. Inserted into a tray this might qualify as a single battery, thus allowing carrying more within their rules.

      2 Primes or 1 Zoom?

      By bs.shoots · Posted

      I recently got an a7cii and to pair with the compact body, I thought of getting 2 of the trio compact lenses, 24mm F2.8 and 40mm F4.0. (I already have a 70-200mm) However I stumbled upon the newly released 24-50mm F2.8 G. I'm not sure which to get - I like the small factor of the prime lenses ON the body because it's discreet and helps me blend in as an average tourist / doesn't make it obvious when doing street. But if I add the dimensions of the 2 primes together, it takes up more space in the bag than the zoom lens. BUT THEN, the weight of the 2 prime lenses is 110g lesser than the zoom lens. The zoom lens has the added benefit of being more versatile.   So now I'm stumped. Each has their pros and cons and I can't decide which to get. I'd like to hear the views of you guys who are more experts at this.   Edit: I'm a bit concerned about weight because the last time I went overseas my shoulders were aching from carrying too much. Which is why I was looking for small compact primes in the first place.

      Sony a6300 after shutter repair

      By dev001 · Posted

      Hi, I have got a6300 which shutter stopped working. I managed to change shutter but unfortunatelly broke shutter motor tape but I fixed that. After repair the shutter is working but not in a proper way, watch with sound. I bought the second shutter and tried to test it before dissaembling again and it doesn't react to magnet but it works fine when I apply 3V. Are there different type of shutter for a6000 - a6400? Back to the question what is wrong with my shutter after first repair? I don't want to put next shutter unfoundedly. Do your sony cameras perform such a self-check after start up?  IMG_5579 (1).webm
