I know this is a long shot, but has anyone measured how much power the X-T30 (or other X-series cameras) draws when connected to the CP-W126 dummy battery? I am particularly interested in the situation where you are doing time lapse photography, with the camera on "idle" and taking regular exposures.
The info for this compatible unit may help:

- USB Power Input: 5V, 2A-4A (at Least 2A Current,Up to 4A if needed),Output: DC 7.2V-8.4V, Connect Directly to Power Bank and You don't Need a Wall Plug Any More
- Dual USB Input Design: Our Unique Design Adapter is Really Handy and Practical for Doing a Long Time Recording When Travelling or Outdoors. You Can Even Make an all-day Recording Without Turnning Off Your Device by Switching Your Power Bank
- IMPORTANT TIP: Make Sure the OUTPUT of your Power Bank is 2A or More, NOT the capacity, the camera will not work properly even though the capacity of your power bank is 10000 mAh but the output is less than 2A. Besides,the working time of the camera based on the capicity of your power bank(eg. 5000Mah or 20000mah),the more capacity the longer working time of the camera.
Thanks...but I somehow doubt that the X-T30 draws a constant 2A (let alone 4A!). If it did, a standard NP-W126s with 1100 mAh would last only 30 minutes or so if you kept the camera powered on. I rather suspect that the camera may draw as much as 3A at peak, dropping back to perhaps 300mA at idle and perhaps 1+A while actually taking a picture. Those sorts of measurements would be more useful to figure out how long a particular external battery might last during a session of e.g. time lapse photography.

Chris and Jordan are enjoying some well deserved time off this week, so we're taking a trip in the wayback machine to revisit the launch of Canon's original full-frame mirrorless camera, the EOS R. Give it a watch to see how far Canon's mirrorless line has come.
The a7R V is the fifth iteration of Sony's high-end, high-res full-frame mirrorless camera. The new 60MP Mark IV, gains advanced AF, focus stacking and a new rear screen arrangement. We think it excels at stills.
After weeks with a production Canon EOS R6 Mark II, Chris and Jordan get into more detail than they could in their initial review.
Topaz Labs' flagship app uses AI algorithms to make some complex image corrections really, really easy. But is there enough here to justify its rather steep price?
Ultra-wide to short telephoto?! The Sony FE 20-70mm F4 G has a very useful focal range, so we took it to the mountains to see how it performs.
Above $2500 cameras tend to become increasingly specialized, making it difficult to select a 'best' option. We case our eye over the options costing more than $2500 but less than $4000, to find the best all-rounder.
There are a lot of photo/video cameras that have found a role as B-cameras on professional film productions or even A-cameras for amateur and independent productions. We've combed through the options and selected our two favorite cameras in this class.
What’s the best camera for around $2000? These capable cameras should be solid and well-built, have both the speed and focus to capture fast action and offer professional-level image quality. In this buying guide we’ve rounded up all the current interchangeable lens cameras costing around $2000 and recommended the best.
Family moments are precious and sometimes you want to capture that time spent with loved ones or friends in better quality than your phone can manage. We've selected a group of cameras that are easy to keep with you, and that can adapt to take photos wherever and whenever something memorable happens.
What's the best camera for shooting sports and action? Fast continuous shooting, reliable autofocus and great battery life are just three of the most important factors. In this buying guide we've rounded-up several great cameras for shooting sports and action, and recommended the best.
