SMALLRIG D-TAP to BMPCC 4K/6K Coiled Power Cable Suitable for Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K / 6K
Quick take
This coiled D-TAP power cable is made to connect V-mount or Gold-mount batteries to a Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K/6K. The most consistent buyer theme is that the camera connection feels firm and the cable is well built, which matters for longer shooting days. The main practical caveat is that seating the 2-pin camera-side connector can require extra care and effort.
Pros and cons
Pros
- Designed for Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K/6K power (D-Tap in, 2-pin female out).
- Push-pull self-locking camera connector helps prevent accidental disconnections.
- Reverse-plug indicator light is intended to reduce incorrect plug orientation.
- Coiled 15-inch to 47-inch reach supports flexible on-set cable routing.
Cons
- Getting the camera-side 2-pin connector fully seated may feel tricky at first.
- Only the specific D-Tap to BMPCC 4K/6K use case is covered, so it may not fit other cameras or battery systems.
What buyers think
Buyer-review evidence is strongly positive overall, with themes centered on reliability and physical connection quality. Multiple comments describe the cable as working properly with BMPCC 4K or 6K setups, emphasizing a secure, stable fit that helps avoid loose connections. Several buyers specifically call out build quality, including thicker-feeling wire and a sturdier camera connection compared with prior D-tap cables.
Buyer-review evidence is limited in detail for electrical performance specifics (beyond “works flawlessly”), so it is best treated as a practical compatibility and connection reliability indicator rather than a substitute for checking your camera and battery requirements.
Who this cable is for
- BMPCC 4K or BMPCC 6K owners who want to power the camera from a V-mount or Gold-mount battery via D-tap.
- Run-and-gun shooters who need a coiled cable length range (15 inches to 47 inches) to keep the setup tidy without constantly re-routing.
- Teams that value connection security, since the camera-side uses a push-pull self-locking connector intended to stay seated during movement.
Key features that matter in the field
Compatibility and connector setup
This cable is intended to pair Standard D-Tap (male) from a V-mount or Gold-mount battery with a Weipu SF6 style 2-pin female connector that fits the BMPCC 4K/6K power input. If your power plan uses D-tap outputs, this is the right category of solution. If your setup requires a different camera-side connector type, you will need a different cable.
More secure camera-side connection
The camera end uses a 2-pin female push-pull self-locking connection designed to resist accidental disconnects. That matters most when cameras are handled, mounted to rigs, or moved during long takes.
Reverse plug indicator light
A built-in indicator light is meant to help prevent incorrect plug orientation. This is a small convenience feature, but it can reduce the odds of troubleshooting in low-light or fast setup conditions.
Power transfer and practical length
It is specified for 12V DC operation, and the design is intended to optimize power transfer while minimizing energy loss. For day-to-day use, the coiled stretch range (15 to 47 inches) gives you flexibility to reach without creating a tangled cable pile.
Pros and cons (decision checklist)
Good fit when you want…
- A dedicated D-tap to BMPCC 4K/6K cable, not a universal adapter.
- A setup that feels more secure at the camera connection than loose-fitting cords.
- A coiled reach that helps manage cable slack.
Consider other options if…
- You are powering a camera that does not use the BMPCC 4K/6K 2-pin power input.
- You prefer a different cable style (straight, longer fixed length, or a different connector system) for your rig layout.
Verdict
The SMALLRIG D-TAP to BMPCC 4K/6K coiled power cable (4761) is a strong choice if you specifically need a D-tap powered solution for BMPCC 4K/6K with V-mount or Gold-mount batteries. The buyer feedback points to a secure camera connection and solid build quality, which are the exact qualities you want in a power cable that will be stressed during shoots. Just plan to take a moment to seat the camera-side connector correctly the first time.

FAQ
Is this cable compatible with BMPCC 4K and BMPCC 6K?
It is made for powering the Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K and 6K, using a D-Tap battery connection on one end and the BMPCC 4K/6K 2-pin power connector on the other end.
Will it work with V-mount and Gold-mount batteries?
Yes, it is intended for V-mount or Gold-mount batteries that provide a D-Tap output.
What cable length range does it offer?
The coiled cable can stretch from about 15 inches to 47 inches, giving you flexibility for different rig and mounting positions.
Does the connector stay plugged in securely?
The camera-side connection uses a push-pull self-locking design intended to help prevent accidental disconnections, and buyers commonly mention a firm fit.
Is the camera-side plug hard to connect?
Some buyers note that seating the 2-pin connector can be a bit of a process at first. Once connected, the goal is a stable connection for ongoing use.
Alternatives to consider
If you are shopping for a different cable, compare based on three things: the battery output standard (D-Tap vs other outputs), the camera-side connector required by your BMPCC model, and the cable style that best matches your rig. For example, you may prefer a different length or coiled vs straight design depending on whether your camera stays on a handheld rig, shoulder rig, or tripod setup.
