ntblowz Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 I got this pop up from fb feed, I think design wise this is probably the best with build in suction cup instead of velcro to stick on the camera. As earth getting more hotter I think fan might be mandatory in the future for videos. https://www.ulanzi.com/products/ulanzi-camera-cooling-fan-for-sony-canon-fujifilm-c072gbb1 Emanuel 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kye Posted August 1, 2023 Share Posted August 1, 2023 Or manufacturers could just sell proper cameras. I saw a post in FB group where I guy said he shot a whole day (I think it was a sports carnival?) in 4k120 in direct sun and the camera didn't overheat. If cameras like the BM Micro Cinema Camera and Canon XC10 can fit cooling fans then there's really no excuse. newfoundmass 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcio Kabke Pinheiro Posted August 3, 2023 Share Posted August 3, 2023 Since it is SO cheap, I've got one for my X-S20 (when the camera arrives arrives). Don't have high hopes, though. The fan is kinda small, blows it to "open air" behind the fan, and not certain about the suction cups. Probably will mod it to be like the Fuji fan - put a metal plate on the back (which help is general dissipation) and attach using screws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Cost cutting and I suspect 99% of users won’t experience overheating etc. I think somewhere like here with a mix of pros and keen enthusiasts, we consider these things more. I was ready to rubbish a stick on fan, but having looked at it, and the preorder price, thought it was quite decent actually and if it works and can make something like that new Sony better, then great. The Fuji option looks good also. But yes, part of me would like to see everything included but then every bit of kit would probably cost too much and could not exist in the marketplace?

Expand The thing is, is it really unlikely that an enthusiast or amateur ISN'T going to experience overheating if a camera can't even get 20 minutes at 24p (and presumably, 30p)? Ultimately he consumer, whether it's a professional or an enthusiast, shouldn't have to worry at all that their brand new camera might shut down because a company refused to spend a little extra putting a fan in the body to prevent it from overheating. We should be expecting more from these companies, not less.

Expand That's the other thing. We can say the difference is the size of the sensor or the resolution, but Panasonic figured out how to get unlimited 4K recording nearly a decade ago. I've never, ever experienced overheating dating back to my GH3 days. Two weeks ago I was outside in 90+ degree weather with high humidity with my three Lumix S5s and the idea of them overheating didn't even cross my mind. They recorded two 90+ minute takes, with only a brief 10 minute intermission in between the first and second half of the event.

SRV1981 Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Curious if these fans could be used on any camera or model specific? also curious what an s1h II would cost and offer if it is even close to release ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand That’s awesome you’ve used these devices. While they don’t look attractive compared to a built in fan, are you confident they work similarly? How much extra record time did you get? may wait for a7C II is announced before making a decision, but having a fan that’s effective and cheap may do as you said - remove need for 2 bodies.
