Auto Vox Digital Wireless Backup Camera Kit

These are a staple of my wedding film making kit. With auto level and backup recording at -12db it's almost a fail proof way to get crucial audio on a wedding day

Use this to backup my memory cards from my digital camera

I use this kit primarily for educational videos where one or two people are talking in a controlled environment. I find it very intuitive to use, and have yet to have any signal issues. The encrypted digital signal prevents cross-talk like you might get with the G3. This particular kit does not come with backup batteries, although the case does come with slots for 2 receiver backup batteries, and slots for 2 transmitter backup batteries. There is no extra slot for the stick microphone backup battery, but it can fit diagonally in the square compartment. I highly recommend getting backup batteries if you plan to shoot two people for over 3 hours since the small receiver batteries only last about 4 hours, although if you have a digital recorder with phantom power on the XLR input where the receiver is plugged in, the receiver will automatically turn off if you turn off the recorder. This helps conserve battery. The transmitter packs are small relative to the Rode system which is partly what sold me on this system, and this kit option was hard to beat.

Works great in situations where wireless fails. It is a perfect backup solution to my EW100 kit.

Having used a couple of different 2.4GHz wireless mic systems in the past, I wasn't expecting much from these. The first Rode Wireless GO was pretty good but failed in a couple of key areas. These, however, have performed flawlessly. I like pro audio features, and the lack of many on this kit raised my eyebrows at first, but they honestly do everything you need a TX/RX kit to do, and are super easy to select options once you figure out how. I've tried them in an RF-free area as well as a dense urban area with tons of interference, and so far, no problem. Also I love the fact that they record independent onboard audio files, which is a great backup in case the mixer or camera audio backup fails. Great product!

We use this headset with our Sony digital wireless lav kit. We use it during instruction of Tai Chi and Kung Fu. This requires a lot of body movement while talking. A lapel mic can sometimes pick up noise during movements from clothes etc. this was supposed to be a solution to that problem. Unfortunately the boom for the mic is too short. Putting the mic in an awkward position which sometimes cuts out. For the money maybe I shouldn't complain but results are what matter to me. I may return it and get a version costing around $400 that looks adjustable in boom length. Hopefully that will work. B&H has by the way been a pleasure to work with.

... I bought this camera for use in my current digital photography class. It replaced a point-and-shoot model that was wholly inadequate for the course assignments. Thankfully, this Olympus DSLR is exactly what I needed. Its auto-focus is very good, although it's a bit slow and occasionally leaves images a bit dark. Still, the auto mode rarely produces an a photo that can't be easily corrected on the computer. Most photographs need no adjustments, however. The camera operates well in a variety of conditions and offers excellent image clarity. If you're comfortable with dialing in the aperture and shutter speed, you'll find that this camera has a great range of both. Adjusting these settings is easy and will allow you to achieve a variety of effects. The LCD's swivel-mount is a huge bonus, too. Overall, it's a great camera and one that I expect to enjoy long after my class ends!

if your wireless unit fails you, this is your backup.

Battery for digital camera. Always a must to have a backup battery for field trips. This one is a charm.

This is unique full manual and auto camera as last top small digital camera. Fantastic shots!
