Thanks for the info. Have you found it reliable going past say 20ft?

Area51 do have 31ft cable via USB-C (+31 with extension) but it would be nice to go wireless some of these days. I'm used to using Tether Tools myself (15ft USB-A).

I use the CamFi Pro at indoor events tethered to LR with my XT4. I shoot in JPG only since the lighting is controlled. It has worked flawlessly. The only drawback is the battery life of the OEM battery. It advertises 3 hrs. I havnt gotten more than 2 hrs. I found a higher capacity battery on Amazon that lasts about 3 hrs which is usually all I need. I do find the battery cover hard to get off so I leave it off and use a rubber band to hold the battery in if I have to change it,

I know I have had no issues between 20-50 feet. It has not had a bad transfer yet. I suggest you order from somewhere with a return policy and give it a try. I ordered mine from B&H.
