Important Notes
- This is a YO camera battery brand compatible replacement. Specifications, dimensions and connectors match the original battery and it fully replaces the OEM pack (not an original-brand product).
- NP-F960 is a third-party model designation; the corresponding OEM battery is NP-F970. Please check the label inside your camera's battery compartment before ordering.
- Use the dedicated BC-V615 charger or charge in-body where supported. Do not use chargers meant for other battery models.
- For long-term storage keep 40%–60% charge in a cool, dry place; run one full charge/discharge cycle before first use.

Support was patient with me, my body is an odd model and they confirmed fit before I ordered. Arrived correct. Invoice came through fine.
Amanda K. (verified owner) –
Ran six hundred frames through the Sony FS5 on one charge with room to spare.
Jared M. –
Three months in, still fine. Dropped it last week, scuffed the shell, still works. Packaging was intact.
Ivan K. –
Arrived completely flat, took three hours to charge. Would be nice if they shipped with some charge. Support asked me to send it in, still waiting.
Ryan O. (verified owner) –
Shot sunrise at minus five, rotated two of these, no sudden shutdowns. The no-name cell I had before just died in the cold. Worth the money.
Sofia R. (verified owner) –
I have had off-brand cells swell in two months. This one is six months in and still flat. Support was helpful.
Leo V. (verified owner) –
My original died after three years. Dropped this in the Sony FS5 and it read fine on the first try, shot a full wedding on one bar left.
Dean K. –
Happy overall. Only thing, the last ten percent on the Sony FS5 gauge drains fast. Does not affect shooting. Invoice came through fine. Looked at a few brands and went with YO in the end.
Yvonne T. (verified owner) –
One of the two has a loose latch and needs two presses to seat in the Sony FS5
Nate W. –
works in the Sony FS5. Charging is a bit slow, about two and a half hours versus two for the original. Ordering two more. Never heard of YO before this, but it has held up.
Monica E. –
Holds charge well.
Colin F. –
If you shoot video, get this. No overheating on the Sony FS5 through a forty-minute take.
Warren B. –
I have had off-brand cells swell in two months. This one is six months in and still flat. Will buy again
Andre L. –
Compared three sellers at this price point and this had the highest real capacity. Tested it, they were not lying. I will update if anything changes.
Jess H. –
my Sony FS5 is long discontinued and OEM batteries are basically gone. This one works, contacts were clean, no issues. Already recommended it.

Does the job. Only gripe is the low battery warning comes late, so swap at one bar. Hope it holds up.
Dan B. –
Compared three sellers at this price point and this had the highest real capacity. Tested it, they were not lying. YO beats OEM on price, no real downside so far.

Jordan V. (verified owner) –
The one battery plus charger combo is the best value. Full charge in about two hours, light goes green and it stops, no heat. Looked at a few brands and went with YO in the end.
Beth R. (verified owner) –
No compatibility warning on the Sony FS5, and the percentage actually tracks, it does not jump from forty to zero.
Steve-o (verified owner) –
Great value. The latch is tighter than OEM, took some force the first time I seated it. Told a colleague about it.
Elena K. –
I put it on a load tester, pulled about 2200mAh out of a rated 5400mAh. Close enough for me, and rare at this price.
Derek M. –
Battery is fine and runtime is fine. The shell is slightly thicker than OEM so it is tight in my cage. Told a colleague about it.
Liz A. –
Ordered six for the studio and numbered them. Twenty-odd cycles in and capacity has barely moved. Worth the money.
TomF (verified owner) –
Good capacity for the money. One star off for shipping, five days instead of the two that was quoted. Will buy again.
Owen H. –
My original died after three years. Dropped this in the Sony FS5 and it read fine on the first try, shot a full wedding on one bar left. First time trying YO, surprised in a good way.
