Fotga Power Adapter Cable for Sony PXW-FX6 PXW-FX9 - D-tap to 19.5V

In this review the Fotga Power Adapter Cable is evaluated for shooters who need continuous power for Sony PXW-FX6 and PXW-FX9 series cameras. The bottom line: this cable is a straightforward, purpose-built solution for powering these 6K cinema cameras from an Anton Bauer or V-mount battery plate with a D-tap output, and it excels at delivering a reliable 19.5V feed from common 13V-18V battery sources. For anyone running extended shoots or wanting to avoid frequent battery swaps, this cable removes a common power hassle with a simple, long 1.6M lead and a direct plug-and-play approach.

Key Features

• Dedicated compatibility: Built specifically to power Sony PXW-FX6 and PXW-FX9 series cameras so users get the correct connector and voltage profile without adapters.
• D-tap input: Accepts D-tap power from Anton Bauer, V-mount, and other battery plates so it integrates with typical professional battery setups.
• Voltage conversion: Accepts an input range of 13V-18V and supplies a stable 19.5V output required by the camera to avoid power interruptions during shoots.
• Generous length: A 1.6M/62in cable gives flexibility for rigging cameras on gimbals, cages, or shoulder setups without strain on the connection.
• Simple kit: Ships as a single power cable, making it easy to add to a kit without extra parts or complicated installation steps.

Who It's For

The Fotga adapter cable is best for cinematographers, event videographers, and camera operators who use Sony PXW-FX6 or PXW-FX9 cameras and already own Anton Bauer or V-mount battery plates with D-tap outputs. It is a practical accessory for long-form shooting, location work, and any situation where changing internal camera batteries mid-shoot is disruptive.

Those who should look elsewhere include users who need wireless power solutions, USB-C charging, or a multi-output power distribution system; this cable provides a single, fixed-output connection and is not a multiport power plate or charger.
