Digital Wifi Antennas And Boosters

Works really good the wifi part manges to pick up through my soiled oak doors with out any boosters.

Wifi card is great. The antennas can be mounted directly to the card or put on the magnetic stand.

I was looking for a case that would be shorter than my current case to allow clearance for the bigger antennas on my new WiFi router that sits on top. The dimensions of this case fit my requirement perfectly. What wasn't clear to me is if it would accommodate my optical drive (Blu-ray burner). I was pleasantly surprised to find that it does! The optical drive and storage drawer sit behind the magnetic panel on the lower front of the unit. The icing on the cake is how much quieter my PC is! The design and built quality is very high with plenty of room for neat wiring runs.

I was having major issues with my Red Komodo wireless control via the Red Control app for some time now. I tested it out on multiple devices in multiple wifi areas (dense vs. sparse) using both the 2.4 GHz and 5GHz modes. After so much frustration with dropped signals and stuttering live view, I had basically given up hope that I'd ever be able to use the Red Control app with my Komodo in any sort of real production situation. After doing some research online a few people recommended these lollipop antennas. They are pretty cheap so I figured what the heck, lemme give 'em a shot. Not much else to lose at this point. Lo and behold, the wifi signal from my Komodo is strong once again and the Red Control app is finally usable! I love that you can bend the antennas as well to try and test better reception based on direction, without fear of actually damaging them. This was a huge win for me!

The Best Antennas!!!

The Speed Boosters seem to good to be true, but they are the real deal. I use mine with the BMPCC, which turns my camera into an HD video monster. Killing the crop factor is great, but adding stops??? I can shoot in a cave with light from a laptop screen. My Nikkor 35mm f1.4 lens becomes a powerhouse. It's like having a huge kino on a dimmer minus the added electric bill and crew. I have used this for documentary and narrative video work, and consider it a vital part of my camera kit. The only downside is mounting the adapter. The first few times with a new lens, it feels like it's too tight or that it won't turn all the way to click, but it does, you just have to take the leap of faith (which is tough with the expensive equipment involved.) I'm not sure what they could really do about that, as I'm sure there are slight differences in all lenses and camera body mounts.

This is my 3rd Speed Booster. Metabone Speed Boosters allow me to use my Canon EF L series lenses on my LUMIX GH5 and get the best image quality, and continued AF.� My main concerns were AF and lens to body communication. I highly recommend EF to MFT XL 0.64x for your GH5.

I had read that these speed boosters have a tendency to be loose at the connection with the camera, but I haven't found that to be the case. Using it on a G85, autofocus works well (these cameras don't have the greatest autofocus anyway) and it greatly expands the range of lenses I can use. Currently shooting video with the Canon 16-35mm f4. Highly recommended.

One of the frequent issues with MFT mounts is that they aren’t the tightest, most secure mounts. This often leaves lenses and lens adapters with some wiggle, making focus pulls a bit challenging. If you’re shooting with the Z Cam E2-M4, and using MFT lenses, this is a lifesaver. Adding the locking functionality usually found only on higher-end PL mounts provides secure lens mounting and no wiggle. I have two E2-M4 bodies. With those, I have two MetaBones Ultra 0.71x speed boosters for use with my EF-mount primes. I also have a set of the DZOFilm Linglung cinema zooms. While the speed boosters seemed to mount fairly tightly, the DZOFilm zooms had a little play. I picked up two of the active lock MTF mounts and never looked back.

Solid - especially if you're comparing to m4/3 speed boosters. Sits snug on the body without much play (there's a tiny bit but it's super manageable). Every aperture ring should feel as good as this one - smooth, de-clicked, with just enough friction.
