Replacement Battery for Sony Handycam and Cyber-shot

This Kastar lithium-ion pack replaces the Sony NP-FM50 and NP-FM55H cells. It delivers 7.4 volts and a 2300 milliampere-hour rating for extended recording time. The single-battery pack suits owners of compatible Handycam and Cyber-shot models who need a fresh power source.

Check your camera model and charger compatibility

Verify that your device appears in the supported model lists covering CCD-TRV, DCR-TRV, DCR-DVD, DCR-HC, DCR-PC and Cyber-shot DSC series. Ensure your existing charger matches the listed BC-VM50, BC-VM10 or BC-V615 units before ordering.

Suits owners of listed Sony camcorders

Buyers needing power for models outside the supplied compatibility lists should look elsewhere. The pack is not intended for devices requiring a different voltage, chemistry or form factor than the 7.4V lithium-ion specification.

Questions about this item

Does the pack include only the battery or a charger as well?

The pack contains one 7.4V 2300mAh lithium-ion battery; a charger is not included and must be purchased separately if you do not already own a compatible Sony BC-VM50, BC-VM10 or BC-V615 unit.

My original battery is labelled NP-FM50 — will this Kastar unit fit and perform the same?

Yes, the Kastar cell replaces Sony NP-FM30, NP-FM50, NP-FM55H and several other NP-FM and NP-QM series packs, so it fits the NP-FM50 slot and delivers the same 7.4V 2300mAh rating.

What does the 2300mAh rating mean for recording time on my DCR-TRV730?

At 2300mAh (17 Wh) the battery stores roughly 30 percent more charge than the original NP-FM50, giving noticeably longer recording sessions on the DCR-TRV730 before a recharge is needed.
