Hejnar Photo new Arca Style QR Plate Dedicated to Fujifilm X-T4

Hejnar Photo D054 QR Plate on Fuji X-T4

Hejnar PHOTO has just announced the release of their D054 Quick Release Plate dedicated to the  Fujifilm X-T4 Interchangeable Lens mirror-less camera.

Nonetheless, the D054 is quite different in design than the D042 that was originally developed for the Fujifilm X-T3. 
Major difference between the recent Fujifilm models and older models is the relocation of the tripod socket under the lens center axis, thus making the fitting for a QR plate quite easier but still there has to be clearance for the battery door.

Hejnar PHOTO has announced availability of their dedicated Quick Release Plate for the new mrrorless Nikons, the Z6 and the Z7 as well as the Nikon FTZ adapter.

Two QR plates were released models D043 and D044, where actually we could say that it is the same plate coming in two flavors, since they are identical differing only a little in height. And we shall see further down why.

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 Announced Dedicated Arca Style QR Plate for Fuji X-T3

Hejnar D042 QR plate mounted on Fujifilm X-T3

Hejnar PHOTO has just announced availability of a their Dedicated D042 Quick Release Plate for the recently released Fujifilm X-T3 Interchangeable Lens Compact mirror-less camera.

Nonetheless, the D042 is very close in design with the D034 that was originally developed for the Fujifilm X-T2 but for a slight change in the mounting hole placement.
Major difference of the recent Fujifilm models with older models is the relocation of the tripod socket under the lens center axis, thus making the fitting for a QR plate quite easier.

Innovative Hejnar PHOTO FQD1 Quick Release Clamp with Quick Detach Socket

Hejnar PHOTO FQD1 Quick Detach Clamp overview


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.

New Hejnar PHOTO F562b Quick Release Clamp for 3/8"-16 Screw Mount

Hejnar PHOTO F562b Quick Release Clamp overview

Although almost all of Hejnar Photo clamps were restyled and renovated starting November 2017, this new one comes to serve a specific demand and goes back one step of styling to the standard shape that Hejnar clamps have accustomed us all these years.
So Hejnar F562b with a 2.375" (6 cm) jaw length, was introduced to fill a gap for ball heads requiring a 3/8"-16 mounting screw like some Linhof models do.

Hejnar Photo D027 QR Plate Compatible with Fujifilm X-T20 Update

Hejnar Photo D027 QR Plate on Fujifilm X-T20 camera

It's been a long time since Hejnar Photo has introduced the D027 Arca Style Quick Release plate. It was originally introduced in 2014 to cover the fixed lens Finepix models designated Dedicated D027 QR Plate for Fuji X100/S.

What is interesting though, is that after thorough testing it is declared directly compatible with the newer Fujifilm X-T20 which seems to share the same smaller base footprint.

Hejnar Photo H019 Square Plate top view

Hejnar Photo has just introduced a new camera plate expanding their coverage to the medium format camera field but not only.
It follows a simple design of a quite large square camera plate with a bidirectional Arca style dovetail. What makes it differ though, is its larger 3/8"-16 mounting screw compared to the usual 1/4"-20 size.

Preview of Updated Style Hejnar PHOTO Quick Release Clamp Series

Hejnar Photo F363 QR clamp overview

Despite some minor changes the look and feel of the Hejnar family of quick release clamps has remained unaltered for the past five or six years.
Somehow, a breeze of change started with the introduction of the new F291 last month, subsequently followed by the F361 and most recently the a new F363 and F363b, with a new approach to the shape and style of Hejnar clamps.

Yet another addition to the Hejnar Special Clamps family came up late last month. It is a modular 90° angle dual quick release clamp with the simple model name F52.
The F52 90° angle clamp can find many uses like attaching two rails perpendicular to each other so they may be used for lens support or even can hold one or more rails in vertical position for shooting panoramas and/or stereo 3D images.

Announcement of Dedicated QR Plate for Fuji X100F from Hejnar PHOTO

Hejnar Photo D037 QR Plate


It's been a long time since Hejnar Photo has been engaged with dedicated plates for the Fujifilm cameras. Hejnar small off center Arca style plates cover almost all Fuji models as well as the fixed lens Finepix with the Dedicated D027 QR Plate for Fuji X100/S back in Feb 2014.

The Finepix successor model however, the X100F, required a slightly modified plate, therefore the Hejnar D037 comes to fill this need.
