New Gear: Canon WFT-R10A Wireless File Transmitter
1 min read
Tethered shooting without the tether. The WFT-R10A clips onto the bottom of the R5 like a battery grip and pushes files straight off the card to a server while I'm still shooting.
Two big wins. First, no cable to trip over on a busy set. Second, the client - or art director, or producer, or stylist - can peek at the take in real time on a laptop or iPad. Game-changer for events and any time someone needs to approve frames as they happen.
Bonus: it takes a second LP-E6NH, so battery anxiety on long shoots basically goes away.
