Sony WCS999 Wireless Camcorder Microphone for DCR-DVD101/201/301 & DCR-HC20/30/40/65/85 Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this for use with my Sony camcorder. I chose it because it was a 900 MHz system rather than the 100 MHz systems from Hysonic, etc. The included lapel mike is not very good. Lots of distortion and very cheaply made. I tried a better quality Radio Shack lapel mike, #33-3013 and got much better results. Compared to putting the mike right into the camcorder, the wireless transmitter shows considerably more noise and lower sound level. No noticeable difference in frequency response, at least for voice recording. Dropouts started occuring when I was about 50 feet away. Bottom line is this isn't broadcast quality but certainly adequate for amateur use.

Shure WL93 Series Subminiature Condenser Lavalier Microphones,WL93- Black, with 4-foot (1.2 m) Cable Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I advise a high school drama club and we have been using Shure wireless microphones for many years. We are pleased with the WL95 but should replace them more often than we do. Some of ours are many years old! We should be more aggressive in replacing them since they sound muddy and pop when they get old and dirty. ( Note that the kids pretty much abuse the mics; they don't handle them or store them like they should...)
This vendor (Full Compass) was the cheapest I could find anywhere and my local supplier says I paid only a couple dollars more than he can get them for. (He price matches but wouldn't do it in this case.) Prices are all over the place! In addition to being the cheapest, they were easy to deal with and quite prompt! (Note that Full Compass was not the cheapest when I got quotes for an "inexpensive" intercom system last year. So, shop around.)

Nady 351 Video Wireless Lavalier System, with 351VR Receiver, WLT 15 Lavalier Transmitter with WLT Lavalier Omni Condenser Mic & Audio Cable" Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this microphone after I got one from Radio Shack (big mistake), the quality of this one is outstanding, very clear and super portable, I had to buy a mono to stereo adapter since the sound is only in one channel (you can correct this in production w the adapter you save some time), after I found the great quality built in this little device I returned the other one from RS (really bad). If you are looking for a good and portable mic for a tide budget this one is definitely it!!

The Nady 351 Ultra compact VR Wireless microphone system from Nady is the secret to producing professional sounding videotapes. Not only will the 351 VR dramatically improve the quality of your soundtracks, but it is so convenient and easy to use, you'll never want to use your camcorder without it!The Nady 351 VR eliminates the problems associated with camcorder onboard mics by allowing the microphone to be placed at the source of the sound where the action is. So even if you're shooting from 200' away, you still get clear, professional sounding audio with no interfering ambient noise.And thanks to Nady's Surface Mount Technology (SMT), the 351 VR receiver is ultra compact. Not much bigger than an audiocassette, it connects instantly to any video camera's external mic jack, and can be attached to the camcorder with velcro or worn on the body with the belt clip provided.Nady's newest, state-of-the-art microphone transmitters are standard with the 351 VR, with a choice of the Nady WHT-15 handheld or WLT-15 lavalier microphone bodypack transmitter. Both transmitters provide 16-20 hours of battery life from a single 9V alkaline, the longest battery operation available with any wireless on the market.The applications of the Nady 351VR wireless are many and varied: Parents can record their child's piano recital from the back of the auditorium and stillhear every note as it sounds onstage. Lecture presentations, awards ceremonies, etc., can ha

Audio Technica Freeway 200 Series VHF Lavalier Wireless System Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I tried this indoors in computer lab. every few minutes it would emit a loud spray of distortion. When I walked around, it would distort much like an old TV with rabbit ears and a weak signal. Everytime I move in the wrong direction it would hiss and distort. Which way was the wrong way? Seems like everyway was wrong. I tried it a few feet away, 10 feet away, 15 feet away. I tried it to the left, right and middle of the room. With the lights on, off. With computers on, off. Everything on, everything off. It's like a cellphone with 1 bar of reception, any movement at all out of the sweet spot would make this thing pop, hiss, distort, cut-out. And there was only a small sweetspot if I stood exactly there, then it would work for a few minutes until the unit built up enough static, then it would discharge into a loud pop. This thing is now in the junk pile with other other useless discarded electronics.

Audio-Technica 700 Series Unipak Frequency-agile Diversity Uhf Wireless Systems Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have used at least a dozen wireless lapel microphones at different speaking engagements I've made across the country. Many of them have had frequency interference problems or sensitivity issues, as well as a few other problems. I eventually did a considerable amount of research, and purchased my own. I tried to strike a balance between cost effectiveness and quality, eventually settling on the Audio-Technica 700 Series Unipak Frequency-agile Diversity Uhf Wireless Systems microphone. I've used it once since I purchased it, and was very satisfied with the results it gave me. There were no frequency interference problems, the sound had exceptional clarity, and I didn't notice a drop in volume when I turned my head to signal to the presentation screen behind me. A particular lady with moderate to severe hearing impairment said she could hear very well. No adverse issues yet. Overall, a great value.

Audio Technica PRO88W-R35 Wireless Lavalier System with ATR3350mW Omnidirectional Mic, 170 MHz Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is my first wireless mic. After some research I decided to go with this mostly due to it's price. To my surprise, not only the craftsmenship on this was great, but the sound is excellent too. I mostly do interviews and close range dialog shoots. It's great for the occasion.
You might need to play around with the antennas to get the sound clear but once it's done there's no prob. Can't say much on it's long distance performance but for my use it's great.
You can plug in any kind of mic with a mini plug on the transimitter. This way you can turn any mic into a wireless mic.
There are two outputs on the reciever. One for mic output to be used for connecting to your mixer,camera etc. And an additional output for monitoring sound through a headphone (small earpice headphone comes with the kit) or to be used as a line level output for non powered devices.
If you need more range and have high possibility of interference go for a UHF mic. But for regular interviews and on site shooting this is up to the job.
