IRVINE, California
 – Hollyland is excited to announce the new arrival of the Pyro series, the latest addition to the catalog of wireless video transmission systems. On April 24, Hollyland launches the first product of this series, the Pyro H.

The Pyro H offers enhanced monitoring stability and collaboration on set. It is perfect for diverse applications, such as film production, commercial filming, live event filming, ENG/EFP applications, and more.

Equipped with More Functions and Capabilities Than Ever Before
With self-developed 2.4 GHz & 5 GHz Dual-Band technology, the Pyro H features a stable transmission range of up to 1,300ft (400m). It achieves a minimal transmission latency of 60ms thanks to upgraded chips and optimized video encoding/decoding algorithms. The Pyro H gives more flexibility when extra monitoring needs arise on set.

The Pyro H’s one transmitter can connect with four receivers with stable signals. The crew individuals at different locations will receive and monitor the real-time shooting view wherever they are. You can select the Smooth Mode or HD Mode depending on your specific needs. Smooth Mode is ideal for maintaining stability over long distances, while HD Mode prioritizes high-definition image quality.

The Pyro H provides better wireless transmission stability, as well as a more user-friendly experience. When it powers up, it automatically chooses a high-quality frequency channel, and users can activate the smart channel scan function to receive real-time feedback on the frequency status.

Unparalleled Convenience and Enhanced User Experience
The Pyro H isn't just built for performance; it's also crafted for ease of use. The transmitter has an HDMI input and a loopout port that allow it to send signals to multiple receivers simultaneously while also facilitating real-time on-set monitoring. The Pyro H also offers a range of power options, such as USB-C power supply, standard DC power, or an NP-F battery.

The Pyro H has advanced preset grouping and pairing features to help users set it up easily and quickly. This saves valuable time on set by eliminating the need for frequent manual configuration of transmitters and receivers.

Moreover, the UVC streaming function makes it connect directly with computers and other devices without the need for capture cards or complicated software installations. This plug-and-play capability is especially beneficial for users involved in live streaming or video conferencing who need fast and reliable setup options.

Superior Video Transmission Quality
The Pyro H has the ability to wirelessly transmit high-resolution video in various formats, including 4K at 25, 24, and 30 frames per second, as well as Full HD 1080p at 50, 59.94, and 60 frames per second. With its capability to handle 4K, the Pyro H provides footage with exceptional clarity, detail, and realism.

Availability and Pricing
The Pyro H is priced at $479 in North America.

Complete 3rd Party Adapter List: Canon EF to EOS R (RF) Lens Mount Adapter Mirrorless Cameras


In order to continue providing useful and helpful content, we depend on receiving commission when visitors use some of the links on this site to make purchases. This commission comes at no additional cost to you. We appreciate the support!

 LATEST UPDATE: 
 - 2/26/24: Added Meike MK-EFTR-AL Locking Mount and Meike 0.71x Speed Booster

 - 3/12/24: Added Meike MK-EFTR-071X-C 0.71x Speed Booster Video 


With the release of Canon's R-series full-frame mirrorless cameras, the EF-RF lens mount adapters extend the range of compatible lenses designed for attaching any EF or EF-S-mount lens to the EOS R-Series mirrorless digital camera. Canon offers four different version of the adapters:

At the time of this post, these adapters are either hard to find, have a long back-order whether it be from Amazon US, Amazon CA, Amazon UKB&H PhotoAdorama, Canon's online store or even price gouged on eBay.

However, if you are in need of an EF/S-RF lens mount adapter immediately for a project or vacation, there are other alternatives from 3rd party manufacturers. We've compiled a list of brands and where you can purchase them. The adapters retains full auto-focus and image stabilization capabilities and contains no optical components, thereby maintaining the original optical quality of the mounted lens. The only difference between OEM and 3rd party is the material quality and added lens/tripod collar (if applicable). They don't break the bank like the Canon or the price gouging from 2nd hand markets but it will hold you over until you're able to find a Canon version or if you feel the need to get OEM.

You never know...you may end up liking the aftermarket ones and saving some money.

We’re continuously working to improve this list by adding new adapters and removing the ones that are no longer in production. Please if you find any new or missing adapters that will need to be on the list. Price may vary from listed pricing. All pricing is listed in USD.

Kickstarter: Peak Design Launches Low-Profile Hand Strap for Mirrorless Photographers



Micro Clutch is the perfect balance of comfort and security and is Peak Design’s 11th Kickstarter

SAN FRANCISCO (May 16, 2023) – Peak Design, the worldwide leader in camera carry solutions, is pleased to announce the launch of Micro Clutch: A minimalist hand strap specifically designed to meet the needs of mirrorless photographers. Micro Clutch will be launched as part of Peak Design’s celebratory 11th Kickstarter and represents a return to Peak Design’s roots in camera carry.

Given their compact size, Mirrorless cameras are often shorter than the width of a hand and lack the robust hand grip found on larger DSLR bodies. Gaining a secure grip on these cameras can be difficult. However, specific features of Micro Clutch, such as a recycled aluminum base plate with a sliding screw slot, and a stitchless hypalon hand pad with rotating pivot points, allow photographers to customize their fit while safely and comfortably moving between both carrying and shooting positions.

In addition to comfort and grip, Micro Clutch allows photographers to gain fast and easy battery access–a limitation of other mirrorless hand straps. Using a cleverly hidden adjustment tool, photographers can loosen the Micro Clutch’s base plate with one 360° turn, release the base plate, and open the battery door without needing extra tools or worrying about dropping parts.

“Our original Clutch hand strap has been a perennial favorite amongst our core photo customers but it’s been clear that the photography industry as a whole is moving towards the use of powerful, smaller bodied mirrorless cameras,” commented Peak Design Founder and CEO, Peter Dering. “Micro Clutch strikes the perfect balance between minimalist design and optimal comfort and grip. Not only are we excited about the product but we’re happy to reconnect with our endemic photo community through a new product and our 11th Kickstarter,” continued Dering.

Photographers can choose between different models of Micro Clutch depending on their make and model of mirrorless camera. An “L” style base plate for bodies with built-in grip and “I” base plate for straight bodies without grip.

Micro Clutch (MSRP: $64.95) will launched for presale discount on May 16, 2023 on Kickstarter–Peak Design’s 11th campaign–and become available direct-to-consumer in Early July.

About Peak Design
Since 2010, Peak Design has been building innovative carry solutions with a simple overarching design directive: make the best things. The idea for our first product was born on a motorcycle trip through Southeast Asia and has since expanded to include a cross-functional ecosystem of bags, pouches, slings, straps, clips and now mobile. We’ve won applause along the way, but we’re most proud of the fact that we’re 100% crowdfunded and 100% employee-owned. We’ve raised $34.4 Million through 10 Kickstarter campaigns to become the world’s most successfully crowdfunded company. This allows Peak Design to stay investor- free and focused on the things that matter most: designing great products, fostering happy employees, and taking care of our customers and the natural environment.
