Is the official Sony VG-C4EM actually worth the $400 or should I just grab the Neewer one for way less?
I have a huge 10-hour wedding shoot this Saturday in Chicago and I'm terrified of my a7R V dying mid-ceremony since I'm shooting 8k. Budget is super tight now after buying the body but I need reliability...

> Grab the Sony VG-C4EM I disagree tho. For 8K, a grip is limited. A Anker 737 Power Bank 24K provides 86Wh via USB-C PD, which is way more juice than two NP-FZ100 batteries.

- Grab the Sony VG-C4EM Vertical Battery Grip.
- In my experience, third-party clones fail mid-shoot. Dont risk a wedding... the OEM reliability is worth every penny.
