Camera Cooling Fan, Moman FS01 Camera External Cooler System with Built-in Battery for Live Streaming 4k Footages Recording Compatible for A7M4/ZV-E1/A6700/A7C2/70D/ZV-E10/ZV1/A7C/FX3/R6/R7/X-T4/XS10

As expected

I got this as I have been finding that when doing longer filming sessions or run and gun style shoots that the camera is getting super warm and needing time to cool off. This is super annoying as I need to jump on filming at a moments notice and if the camera is overheating I have missed the shot.The kit comes with a number of brackets for different cameras. As I only have the A7IV, thats all I will be testing it against. The fan unit itself is quite small and compact. The fans are only small and do a surprisingly good job of keeping the camera cool, while using it, I have not had the overheating warning come back up since which has allowed me to almost continously record. The unit is made of plastic so the extra weight is very minimal. The plastic itself is decently thick and will stand up to some fair wear and tear.The fans also run near silently and this cannot be picked up on the camera in-built microphone. They have two speeds for the fans. I tend to use speed one if I am going to be doing a long day of shooting. However with a battery bank, you can recharge both the camera and the cooler at the same time.Overall, I am quite impressed by this. The build quality is lightweight and fairly strong. The performance is excellent! It allows me to shoot for way longer which only helps in getting footage! At just £24.99 this is such an easy purchase! 5/5!

The media could not be loaded. This fits my sony ZVE1It pushes into the socket where your screen sits and you use it by pulling the screen to the side and fitting the frame the screen hole so that it sits snug.Then push the cooler module into it and it is nice and tight n there.There are 4 different frames.You can choose to run it at fan speed 1 blue light or 2 green light, Off is in the middle of the switch.Both fans spin in both modes and the sound is hardly discernible in slow mode though you can hear it on a recording in level 2 mode.I took a quick video just to show how the fan picks up on levels 1 and 2.I think if you are talking over it while videoing or outdoors with external sounds all around , you wont hear it even on level 2.Its not smart or anything, it just helps dissipate heat from the camera case and it does do that to give a longer recording time.You don't see a temp read out on it but it is stand alone as it is chargeable.The battery is said to give 1 hour on faster mode and 2 hours on slower mode . Obviously this is the operation of the module not how much longer your camera will run before overheating.You can also charge and use at the same time and there is a good length of usb cable to do that with, so you could have a power bank run it for hours .As far as videoing length goes, I haven't seen the overheat notification come up since using it and its been very warm yesterday and today.I cant say if this is the best camera cooler as its the first I have tried but it does cool it to give a longer video time.Would have liked to see a read out of current temps but its not as expensive as those models that do that so I suppose you cant have everything AND the better price.I'm rather pleased with it.

This comes in a box that is 20.2cm x 13.4cm x 3cm in size and together with the items weighs 166g. A 2m long USB-C power cable is supplied. When the battery is flay it takes about an hour to charge and when charging you see a flashing red LED.The fan itself is 7.0cm x 5.0cm x 1.2cm in size. I can confirm that it is very low noise. The plastic frame work, of which there are four, is very important as the fan fits inside these and the framework meshes with the backs of the specific cameras. There is a label on the side of each framework to say which camera to use it on: R6/D, X-T4\D, ZVE 10/D and A7M4 D (and ZVE1 D). It is very specific to these types of camera where you can move the LCD screen out of the way.Alas, I do not have any of these cameras, but will be using it to cool the back ends of a camera used in astronomy. As a test I put it on the back of a Samsung Galaxy S-20 Ultra, which can get quite warm when doing 8K video. I enclose a graph of a run with the 2 fans on and as a comparison a run with no fan. After 40 min, the S-20 was 6 deg C cooler than it would have been without the fans. Now the fans are not meant for my mobile phone, so will probably have an even bigger cooling effect of the cameras they are meant for. This is good as the camera battery will be cooler and more efficient and last longer, and the camera will have less noise image noise and be less likely to have a temperature alarm.

The double fan isn't that powerful compared to some others!

This product was sent to me for review, as part of Amazon Vine. The below is my own real-world experience of using it.In terms of quality, both the fan and its included mounting frames appear to have been well-made - the construction is a solid plastic that does not have much flex, which, for the frames particularly, ensures that the fan is held securely in place. You are also getting a decently long and quite thick USB-C charging cable that will work with any compatible power supply - you could even use a power bank, for extra portability.On opening the box, it is very easy to find the mounting frame that you require, as each has the compatible camera model printed on the side tab, and this slots into the hinge for the flipout screen.As for the performance of the fan itself, it is very quiet, regardless of the speed selected. The airflow is pushed out of the back only, so can go directly into the camera. I have found the operation time to be between 1-2 hours, as expected, and it does not take too long to recharge.In summary, a good value item, and a worthy addition to the camera bag, for longer filming sessions.

It is easy to carry and attach to my camera. The build quality is robust, It effectively dissipates heat, allowing for longer recording times without the risk of overheating. the fan runs quietly, ensuring that it does not interfere with audio recording. The cooling effect is immediate and noticeable, goodfor shooting high-resolution videos and live streaming.
