CamFi Limited launches the fastest wireless camera controlled, CamFi Pro.

Share

The CamFI PRO project has been launched on Indiegogo. This is the press text:

CamFi will launch the fastest wireless camera controller in the world

GUANGDONG , China – November 30, 2017 – CamFi, maker of wireless controllers for digital cameras, today announced the launch of a crowdfunding campaign on Indiegogo for the fastest wireless camera controller, CamFi Pro. CamFi Pro uses the 802.11ac protocol to transfer the photo from the camera. It can offer Wi-Fi transfer speeds up to 866Mbps. Tests show it can reach speeds of 10M bytes per second in reality, two to three times faster than most built-in Wi-Fi cameras and 2.4G Hz wireless camera controllers.

CamFi Pro supports most of Canon, Nikon and Sony cameras. And it will be the only 5.8G wireless tether solution for Sony cameras in current market.

“Speed is a big problem for current Wi-Fi products. It limits the productivity of the professional photographers.” Said Mark Ma, CEO of CamFi. “CamFi Pro is going to use new technology to solve this challenge.”

CamFi Pro takes two to three seconds to transfer a raw photo with a size of 20 megabytes. It supports auto view mode, which enables the client device to receive the photos in real time when the photographer is taking the photo. Selective transfer is also supported. The photographer can send only JPEGs to the client device and keep the raw photos on SD card.

By using 5.8G band, the device effectively avoids Wi-Fi interference. This is suitable for professional photographers covering events and meetings. The live view works smoothly for high transfer speed, making it effective for recording the video as well.

CamFi Pro also supports timelapse, HDR, focus stacking and multiple camera control. The photographer can use one computer to control multiple cameras to shoot and transfer the photos back. It can be applied for bullet – time effect and 3D modelling.

It can be controlled from Android and iOS mobile devices as well as PCs and Apple computers. Backers of CamFi Pro will be the first to receive the product. Delivery is expected for February, 2018. More information, including a full list of compatible cameras, can be found on the Indiegogo crowdfunding site: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/camfi-pro-the-fastest-wireless-camera-controller#/

RX1 and RX1r cameras no more available at Adorama. RX1RII price to be lowered and replacement coming soon?

Share

Both the RX1 and the RX1r are no more available at Adorama and available on special order only at BHphoto. You can only see a very limited quantity in Stock at Amazon. The RX1RII is obviously still in Stock but the fact that the first generation is fading out might be still a sign that the RX1RII price might be lowered and a new model might come out soon.

It’s unclear of Sony will make a Full Frame or a Medium Format successor. We also reported many times about Sony’s curved sensor FF and MF patents. I expect the next High End RX camera to show some very new unique features.

What would you prefer to get?
