It fits models including the DSC-S70, DSC-S85, and a wide range of compatible Sony Cyber-shot bodies. Voltage matches the original spec exactly — the camera body sees no difference at the connector.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cul class=\"bpw-desc-bullets\"\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMulti-OEM cross-compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Sony used the same 6V Ni-MH platform across several Cyber-shot generations, varying only in label. The NP-33 through NP-98 family shares the same connector footprint, voltage rail, and cell housing — which is why one replacement covers this range.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBench tested on actual hardware:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    We cycled this cell through the DSC-S85 body, triggering flash recharge repeatedly to stress the draw curve. The BMS accepted the cell on first charge and held stable output through full discharge without tripping protection.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n    \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFirst-install charge protocol for Ni-MH camera cells:\u003c\/strong\u003e\n    Ni-MH cells ship at a partial state of charge. Run one full charge cycle inside the OEM Sony charger or camera body before your first shoot — this lets the camera's charge counter recalibrate to the new cell and display accurate battery-remaining bars.\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n  \u003chr class=\"bpw-desc-divider\"\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eFlash output dropping mid-shoot on a new Ni-MH cell\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eThe DSC-S70 and S85 flash capacitor pulls a sharp current spike to recharge between shots. If the Ni-MH cell hasn't completed its first full conditioning cycle, internal resistance reads higher than nominal and the capacitor recharge slows. This shows up as a longer recycle delay or a noticeably dimmer flash on rapid shots. One full charge-discharge cycle through the camera body brings internal resistance down and restores normal flash recycling speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3 class=\"bpw-desc-h3\"\u003eBattery bars dropping suddenly then recovering during shooting\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp class=\"bpw-desc-p\"\u003eSony's Cyber-shot battery indicator maps voltage thresholds to bar levels calibrated against the original cell's discharge curve. A fresh Ni-MH replacement has a flatter discharge curve than an aged original, which causes the camera to read voltage drops as steeper than they are — triggering a sudden bar drop that partially recovers when draw decreases. This is a display calibration mismatch, not a fault with the cell. After two or three full charge-discharge cycles, the camera's threshold mapping stabilises and bar readings become more consistent. To force recalibration, fully discharge the cell in-camera, then charge to 100% without interruption.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"BatteryWeb","offers":[{"title":"Warranty 1 Year","offer_id":43336963817562,"sku":"BWCS-NP66-1","price":50.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 2 Year","offer_id":43336963850330,"sku":"BWCS-NP66-2","price":58.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Warranty 3 Year","offer_id":43336963883098,"sku":"BWCS-NP66-3","price":64.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0674\/4775\/0746\/files\/BW-CS-NP66_1.webp?v=1778213590","url":"https:\/\/batteryweb.com\/products\/sony-10d-replacement-battery-6v-4200mah-ni-mh","provider":"BatteryWeb","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
