Q: 6. Can this DMW-DCC12 DC Coupler be used on Lumix GX8 camera.?

A: I do not have this camera so dont know.

Q: 7. What is the barrel size of the plug on the *Panasonic* branded DC Coupler? The internet is full of mixed information. Can someone who owns the actual Panasonic branded DC coupler and/or the matching Panasonic AC kit (not a third party model), measure the plug and confirm if it's a 5.0mm x 2.1mm (5021), or a 4.0mm x 1.7mm (4017) plug? Thanks!

A: It is not the typical 5.0 x 2.1/2.5 mm. I purchased this along with a Canon coupler (which IS 5.0 mm) and plan to replace the socket with a 5.0 x 2.1 mm so that the power supply I built (8.4VDC) will work with either or both together (powering both the GH4 and the SmallHD monitor). I searched thru the manual and it IRRITATINGLY does not state the size of the connector. It is a bit smaller than 5.0 mm.

Q: 8. Can this be used to Power my GH5 from the Ronin RS2 Gimbal?

A: No, the DigitalFoto Solution Limited USB Type-C to Panasonic DMW-BLF19/DCC12 Dummy Battery Coiled Cable (B&H# DIPDDCC12) requires a USB PD 9V/12V power source to produce the appropriate power using its buck module to run a Panasonic Lumix GH5 Mirrorless Camera (B&H# PADCGH5). Unfortuntely, the USB C ports on the DJI RS 2 Gimbal Stabilizer (B&H# DJRONINS2) do not provide power to the needed PD specification.

Q: 9. Will this work with the G85?

A: No. The DMW-DCC12 DC Coupler fits into the battery compartment of the GH4 and GH5. The G85 uses a different battery, making this adapter incompatible.

Q: 10. Will this power AND enable all functionality with the GH6?

A: No, the DigitalFoto Solution Limited USB Type-C to Panasonic DMW-BLF19/DCC12 Dummy Battery Coiled Cable is not compatible with the GH6.
