858 Wireless Microphone

The best wireless microphone for my iphone. Recommended.

I use this for the wireless microphone system. For outdoor event.

This is the best and simple way to replace my wireless microphone issue.

I use this product to connect a boom microphone to a wireless transmitter.

I like this microphone. I use it with the Rode Wireless system and I'm happy with the result.

Upgraded from my 758-DR to this new 858. Love the touch screed and how fast and easy this is to use with really only the need to use the touch screen the vast majority of the time. Has the features to help me get into some DSLR Video and for High Speed Flash. Now if it just had a radio module to control my Canon Speedlites it would be even more awesome.

Before buying the 858 I used and still own 2 Pentax Digital Spotmeters. Love them but not the fact there’s literally only one person in the US that can calibrate them and he’s not the friendliest person made me look for another option. I bought the 858 to be my main meter. Wanted a new meter, and frankly with the prices or used ones on eBay (even more for us sellers, go figure) it made sense just to buy this one. There is a learning curve (especially coming from years with the Pentax). So far I have been able to do everything I want and more. Yes there is a little lag turning it on. I found if you leave stuff in the memory it slows down boot time. Got use to the touch screen. Not sure why everyone acts like it’s a deal breaker. I had smart phones in the past with worse screens. The spot meter (I use the most as a landscape photographer) has a smaller viewfinder then the Pentax, and has difficulty on closer subjects while the Pentax has no issues. Another coming complaint I see is about the lack of buttons vs the 758. Honestly if you want a bunch of buttons, get a used 758. Problem solved. As for the screen, everything is labeled, no more using code like “3-0.0-1.3” and figuring out which number means what in the settings. After handling it a bit, dialing in profiles, it’s a pretty fast workflow now.

I bought this microphone as a replacement to the Sennheiser ME2 Omni Lavalier Wireless Microphone System and I have to say, it is amazing quality. I can't even tell the difference between the manufactured Sennhesier and this Pearstone. I use this microphone in corporate studio shoots, in house astrology horoscope shoots, and for weddings. Highly impressed with the sound this lavalier produces for its price.

I have a RØDE Wireless Go (wireless microphone) that I use with my iPhone, iPad, DJI Osmo Pocket, and Nikon Z6 camera. As versatile as it is, I also wanted to be able to use it with my RØDECaster Pro and my Zoom H6, both of which have XLR jacks to record individual audio tracks. That’s where this RØDE VXLR+ comes in — it just allows me to connect a mic with a TRS jack to an XLR input. It’s basic, and it works. RØDE makes great products, including this one.

I use these dividers to keep my wireless microphone transmitters safe and ready to deploy whenever!
