The Porta-Brace POL-FS7 Polar Bear black protective cover is designed to keep the Sony PXW-FS7 warm in low temperatures. It features a black nylon fabric exterior, is heavily padded and built with high-density insulation. The interior is lined with a phase change material (PCM) that stabilises the temperature and helps to keep warm air in the camera compartment. Air-activated hand warmers can be placed inside the case to maintain interior temperatures in extreme cold conditions; Polar covers have been tested to -45°C.

The POL-FS7 can be used with a lens shade or a standard lens. The attached insulated lens cap protects the lens during transport and prevents condensation from forming when the camera and case move from the cold to indoors. Hook-and-loop fasteners line the inside of the Polar Bear to position optional air-activated hand warmers, available separately. Two hand openings at the lens and one near the viewfinder are closed by cotton cuffs that keep hands warm. The POL-FS7 has three sets of zips that make it easy to put on and remove the cover. The lower zip fitted around the tripod plate prevents cold from entering when the camera is used on a tripod.
