The CASE Relay Camera Power System offers 'infinite camera power' for most DSLR and mirrorless cameras by Canon, Nikon, Sony and Panasonic. The system works via a DC coupler that plugs into both the camera’s battery port and the Case Relay. The Relay then plugs into either a 5V USB external battery or a wall outlet. The Case Relay, which includes a secondary 1200mAh battery, is a solution for time-lapse photography and other tasks that require uninterrupted, long-lasting power. External battery packs can be swapped without interrupting power, as the Relay's battery will continue to power the camera while the external source is unplugged. CASE Relay is partnership developed with Tether Tools, for more details, please check here.
