Do Wireless Headphones Have A Delay

The best wireless NC headphones that I have ever heard!

The best pair of wireless headphones every created!

This wireless remote works exactly as billed. In fact, it works better than I was expecting. When I first read the description of this product's features, I missed the part about the optional two-second delay (toggled via a switch on the back of the remote). It wasn't until I was taking a few test frames using this unit that I realized the importance of that delay. It's just enough time to get my arms back at my side and look normal when taking group shots as I did with my family over the holidays this year. Without that delay, my arm would be pointed straight at the camera in every picture. I know it sounds silly to have not considered this before, but it honestly didn't cross my mind when I made the purchase. I also appreciate that the included pouch is designed to slide onto your camera strap for easy access. Given how inexpensive it is, I can't imagine why every Canon owner shouldn't have one of these.

This is a great way to release the shutter on a Canon camera without touching it. How it interfaces with the camera depends on the camera model. The prior model would only work with a two-second delay during which time the mirror inexplicably stayed down. Now you can defeat the delay and/or combine it with mirror lockup. One good thing not documented that I can see is that in live view mode one press of the button on this wireless will trigger all exposures in a sequence (e.g., for HDR.) One very dumb thing: the receiver for the wireless signal on the camera is on the front but the photographer is almost always going to be behind it. Why not two receivers? How much could that cost?

I used this wireless remote for self portraits on a hiking trail. It worked perfectly with no delay. I haven't used it for the flash yet.

Officially Teradek says there is less that 1 millisecond of delay but I couldn't see any delay with my eyes. This is a big step up from other wireless kits from folks like Hollyland that claim .08 seconds but in reality it's more than like twice that. This really doesn't have any latency. The feed is so instant that you can pull focus with the Spark 4k. Even though they don't exactly bill this as a system to pull focus. They seem to be pushing this as more of a live stream or event solution. However wireless video systems designed specifically to pull focus are so incredibly expensive but I'm happy to say you can use this in your regular video production shoots to pull focus without issue. The other big selling point for me was the quality of the actual video stream you get. You can get up to 4k 30fps 10bit 4.2.2 in the actual stream. Again, this is a big step up from most system that only offer 1080p 60fps max with video quality that is just terrible. I am not a wireless video guru so the fact that these were so incredibly easy to get up and running sealed the deal for me. Literally just turned on both units and they automatically synced up. No extra button presses to get things running. Nothing to really setup in any menus. Just turn them one, briefly wait and your video signal is flowing.

Very good alternative to transmit wireless audio and video with a very small delay. New design allows you to identify what is the transmitter and what is the receiver.

I do video production and we had an incident where the wireless units were going haywire and it caused a lot of delay and frustration. The speakers at the conference didn't really move around on the stage so wireless was not really needed. The next week I bought this to serve as backup and ended up using it as our main sound with the lavalier mic from one of the wireless units. A couple of these in the toolbox would have saved quite a few headaches. Worth ever penny. I may get a couple more.

I was needing a wireless mouse for work, so I grabbed this one. There is no delay in reaction and its movements are very smooth. I have always been happy with Logitech accessories.

One of the best wireless headphones. I've got the apple EarPods and these are way better.
