The Anton Bauer Dual Micro Bracket for the Sony FX9 is a versatile power solution that allows you to attach two Anton Bauer Micro batteries in either V-mount or Gold mount configurations.
The bracket features a hinged design with a locking lever to hold the plate in place. When mounted, it gives you access to the camera's internal battery where you can swap them out without the need to power down the camera. The mount easily attaches into the Extension Unit connector on the top of the camera, and if using the optional XDCA-FX9 Extension Unit for the FX9, the bracket connects directly into the XDCA-FX9 Extension Unit.
The bracket has four integrated P-Tap ports to power multiple accessories. A built-in resettable digital fuse helps protect your camera and powered accessories all while providing a output voltage of 19.5V required to power the FX9.
The Dual Micro Battery Bracket is compatible with Titon Micro series that includes 150Wh, 90Wh, and 45Wh battery options. It's priced around $427, and again, is available in V-mount or Gold mount.
