Re: Camera Mounted Wireless Lav Mics for HD100?
 
I appreciate all of the help I have been receiving from the great people in this forum. I received lots of options on models that work.

I'm having to purchase a few other pieces of equipment to go with my gear and in dong this I think I will have to sacrifice buying the system I would like to have and use a UHF lav system but not camera mounted. I have a lav that I used on a project that works as a single lav on a receiver. Although I had to use an adapter to change it over to XLR it worked out nicely. I came across a few systems recently that have two lavs and each has an XLR output so I can go direct to camera from the receiver with 2 XLR's to record each on it's on channel in camera. Not the camera mounted setup I want but it will work and provide good sound which is the most important part. For my mobile ENG type of projects I'll stick with my cabled mics for now. Unless, something changes, this is most likely the plan for now.

You can get into a pair of wired premium lavs or earset mics for way less than wireless!

If there will be 60 people in the room and therefore a PA system, I'd highly recommend earset, like the Countryman E6i over lavs. So much more gain before feedback in a *very* nice sounding mic!

Seth, I see you are correct about the wired lavs. A lot less than the wireless. And we are working in a small space at the front of the room so this is certainly an option worth looking into. Thanks for the info.

If anyone has any suggestions on wired lavs that you have used successfully, let me know. Any specific brands work best? I can take direct to camera XLR using the 2 channels in-camera.

Hi Lisa,

The following statement is not a criticism at all. In fact I could not answer the question for you. You are the only one that can answer it. And it is said on this board all the time: Are you willing to commit at least the proper amount of your budget to getting at least reasonable audio quality?

The reason I ask is because it is a common mistake. Some people are reluctant to spend a proper amount of their budget (be it large or small) on meeting even the basic audio needs for a project. Cutting corners in audio too sharply can result in a big crash. Audio gear is a critical part of your kit. I hope the audio gear you end up using is at least capable of meeting a reasonable minimum of quality sound. Otherwise the entire project could end up worthless after all of your other hard work, it happens all to often. Again not lecturing, just food for thought........

Steve

Hi,

I agree...audio is very important and key. Bad audio can certainly cancel out everything. I have been using wired handhelds plus a wireless lav but the lav is only one channel and not sure I can find a matching one to compliment it using 2 receivers. Been looking for lavs, wireless preferably. It seems the wish list I have is $1k and up and buying some other equipment right now too other than just audio.

I appreciate input. I understand totally what you mean. ;)
