Q: 2. Can this enlarger be adapted work with 6 x 9 size negatives? And if so, could you point me in the direction of a good 6 x 9 enlarger lens that is comparable with this enlarger?

A: The maximum film size compatible for use with the Beseler 67XLC Condenser Enlarger Value Pack would be 6 x 7 cm medium format negatives. If you are looking for an enlarger that would work with the larger 6 x 9 cm medium format negatives, I would recommend the Beseler 23CIII-XL Condenser Enlarger with Baseboard, B&H # BE23C3XLC, the Kaiser VPM-9005 Multigrade Enlarger (For Up to 6x9), B&H # KAVPM9005, the Kaiser VCP-9005 Dichroic Enlarger (For Up to 6x9), B&H # KAVCP9005, or the Beseler 45MXT Enlarger, B&H # BE45MXT. If you need an enlarging lens, the Schneider 150mm f/5.6 Componon-S Enlarging Lens, B&H # SC15056CS, the Schneider 135mm f/5.6 Componon-S Enlarging Lens, B&H # SC13556CS, the Rodenstock 135mm f/5.6 Rodagon Enlarging Lens, B&H # RO13556R, or the Rodenstock 120mm f/5.6 APO-Rodagon D Enlarging Enlarging Lens, B&H # RO12056RD, would work for your usage needs.

Q: 4. I'd like a little longer cord.Can I use an auxiliary cord to add some length? And what kind of cable would I use? Would signal denigration be an issue with the longer cable? Thank you

A: I've been using a 10ft cord sometimes with the TRRSTRS adapter for my H1 Zoom. If you are using on your mobile, make sure you have a TRRS female to TRRS male extension. I love this mic! 100% reliable!

Q: 5. Can I plug this right into my DSLR (Sony a7s)?

A: This mic has a four-pole plug (designed for iPhones and other mobile gear). It is not directly compatible with DSLR mic input. You can buy a separate adapter (Google 3.5mm 4-pole to 3-pole adapter). Or just record the sound on your mobile device and then pair up the track during editing. That's what I do.

A: not what its designed for, might be an app/way of doing it tho......

Q: 10. Just purchased the rode smart lav and the TRRS to TRS adapter it will not work on my canon vixia hfs20 camcorder it does not have plug in power for mic is there a power supply in can add in line with the mic. I have tested the mic with my computer using the TRRS to TRS adapter and it works and it work on my iPhone so I know the mic is good. How do I get it to work with my camcorder

A: The smartLav+ requires plug-in power, as you already know. It is not compatible for use with your HFS20 camcorder which does not supply plug-in power. Rather than to risk damaging the smartLav, I suggest purchasing a different mic for use with the camcorder. The Polsen OLM-10 (B&H # POOLM10) is an inexpensive lavalier designed for use with devices that do not supply plug-in power.
