Announcement of New Sunwayfoto Carbon Fiber Tripod Lines and Models
We can call this a major event for Sunwayfoto since after many delays and postponements, Sunwayfoto finally announced on April 15, the release of not one but seven (7) new tripod models in four (4) different series.
It has been 6 years since the release of their first two full sized carbon fiber models the T1C40T Carbon Fiber Traveller and the T2C40C Carbon Fiber Classic.
In the meantime, about the end of 2019 there were a couple of attempts to introduce improved models like the T2C42C Carbon Fiber Classic, and a new series T2C40N Carbon Fiber without Column, but Covid restrictions had set back production and transports all over the world.

Sunwayfoto YLS-G3 Double Y-Type Long Lens Support Review
Some of the older SCV Photography Ideas readers may recall a series of articles engaged with solutions for the stabilization of long telephoto lenses via Long Lens Support Brackets (LLSBs).
But what happens when you want to support a real monster like the SIGMA 800 mm f/5.6 EX DG APO HSM lens? Well trust me a simple bracket as the ones we have seen up to now is not enough then.
Triggered by user demand, Sunwayfoto has gone all the way in introducing a series of Long Lens Support Kits named YLS-G1 through G3 addressing different lens lengths. Their largest model YLS-G3 capable of supporting the Sigma beast is in review here.

Sunwayfoto Introduces EPIC Series Extremely Lightweight Traveller Ball Heads
It has been a long time since the last major design upgrade of the Sunwayfoto FB Series Mk II Lightweight Ball Heads. If I remember well it was back in 2014 not counting the introduction of model FB-52 sometime in 2017.
Well, it took a long time but maybe this is what was needed to come with something EPIC according to the new series name, just announced by Sunwayfoto.

Hejnar Photo Modular Flash Bracket Extended Version -Preview
It took some time for the idea to mature and come to its first update.
Nonetheless, it is neither a refinement nor a modification update but actually an extended version of the Hejnar FB87B Flash Bracket.
Besides the extension though, it still takes far less space to carry in your bag compared to other monoblock brackets and can be set up in no time.
Nothing changes also in adjustment of height.
Nonetheless this extended version is more suitable with longer telephoto lenses, as it can lift the light beam higher.

Innovative Hejnar PHOTO CQD1 Quick Release Plate with Quick Detach Socket
Quite sometime after the introduction of the Innovative Hejnar Photo FQD1 Mini Quick Detach QR Clamp last June, it was about time for Chris Hejnar to combine the two worlds of Quick Release and Quick Detach on a rail.
As I mentioned in the FQD1 preview, neither of these worlds is new, but the combination is indeed. Somehow, further versatility is added to products tested for rigidity and durability for many years, without compromise.

Hejnar PHOTO Lens Support for Fujifilm XF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6 R LM OIS WR Lens
Although Chris Hejnar has released a Replacement Foot for Fuji XF 100-400mm F4.5-5.6 R about two years ago, which actually offers greater integration, some clients required further stabilization of the front part of the lens.
Therefore, a solution of a Long Lens Support combining a longer rail and vertical bracket, came to be stabilizing this longer super telephoto lens.

A Modular Flash Bracket Coming from Hejnar Photo
It was back in 2014, when a crude and quite heavy I must admit, Hejnar Photo Modular Flash Bracket had appeared made from Hejnar Photo parts.
Actually it was assembled together by one dedicated Hejnar Photo user, but never became an official product or kit.
It was more or less a proof of what one may do combining imagination with Arca-Swiss compatible modules.
Nonetheless, now the new modular flash bracket is much refined and dedicated to the use.
It takes far less space to carry in your bag compared to other monoblock brackets and can be put up in seconds.
It can be adjusted in height and used either with short or long telephoto lenses.

Innovative Hejnar PHOTO FQD1 Quick Release Clamp with Quick Detach Socket
Up to now we were talking about Quick Release Clamps. Well after the introduction of the Hejnar Photo FQD1 clamp, it's time we talk about a Quick Release and Quick Detach clamp two in one.
The concept is not new but the FQD1 brings two worlds together. The world of the QD - quick Detach system into the world of Hejanr QR Clamps. Somehow, these two have something in common. Both have been tested for rigidity and durability for many years.
