The beige B3 Omnidirectional Lavalier Mic, Standard Sens, with LEMO 6-Pin Connector for Audio Ltd. Wireless Transmitters from Countryman is a water-resistant, miniature lavalier microphone for capturing high-quality audio. It can be used in a variety of applications such as a tie-clip lavalier in interviews, a hair-hidden mic for drama, a water-resistant mic for water sports and hurricane reporting, or simply a small mic to hide in a prop flower vase.

The capsule is resistant to moisture, which allows for placement in the hair or on bare skin, and its omnidirectional polar pattern minimizes handling noise, wind noise, and plosives (popping). Furthermore, a variety of skin-matching colors are available. The B3's cable terminates to a LEMO 6-pin connector for direct connection to an Audio Ltd. TX2000 or RMS-2000-mxl wireless bodypack transmitter. Additionally, a carrying case, two cable clips, a windscreen, and three protective caps are also included.

Looks great when you want to see it, virtually disappears when you don't. The B3 is easily hidden in hair or on costumes, with five colors to match clothing, hair, and skin tones. Use a felt-tip marker to color the white caps for near-perfect concealability. Never suffer the hassle and degraded sound quality of under-clothing miking again.

The B3 is resistant to makeup, sweat, and moisture when used with the supplied protective caps, and works well in hair or on the body. The protective caps are easily removed for cleaning or replacement, and the aramid-reinforced cable gives it world-class survivability.

The B3 provides high-quality audio with low distortion at SPL up to 150 dB on 48V phantom power. The aramid cable and thin diaphragm combine to offer low handling noise. The flat frequency response accurately captures voice or instruments, and the small size makes the B3 easy to position for ambient noise and feedback rejection.

Changeable protective caps let you shape the frequency response for different situations or to match other microphones. Versions are available for different speaking or singing styles, with high overload capability for recording instruments.

Standard, for most uses.

Q: 1. How is this adapter compare to some other adapters (B4 to Canon EF mount, Canon to NEX with optical speed booster (metabones) , NEX macro lens extender) ?

A: Sine the mounts you have mentioned have specific uses and are not directly comparable, we think you are asking about the quality of the MTF brand. We can say that there is nothing better. MTF fit and finish is pro level and is used by international TV stations and movie crews.

Q: 2. is there a support bridge for 19mm rail instead of the 15mm rail ?

A: MTF does not offer this with a 19mm support bridge. You can use any of the many others available. Here is the most affordable and the next up in price and quality.

Q: 3. Can I uses this adapter on FX 6 full frame sensor with out using x2 on the B4 lens?

A: With adapters you are going to want to work with B4 lenses that have a 2x extender. The MTF Services Ltd B4 2/3" to Sony E-Mount Lens Adapter Package can only be used on B4 2/3" lenses with built in 2X extender engaged. Also, HD B4 lenses are recommended.

Q: 4. does this include the D-tap power cable?

A: What camera are you using that cable for? Can you provide a link by any chance?

Q: 5. will this work on my sony Fs7 camera?

A: When you stack the adapters in this package, it allows the use of B4 lenses on E-mount camera's such as the FS7. The added advantage is that you can also put the B4 lenses on Canon EF mount cameras as well.

Q: 6. Why magnification factor? It has no glass right?

A: We are not aware of the exact mechanics behind how this adapter is constructed, but it does indeed offer a 1.1x magnification.

Q: 7. Does the power for the lens servo come thru the EF contacts, or is there a need to get an accessory for the lens cable?

A: Sorry, there is no power connection between the camera and the lens with these adapters. You get top shelf fit and finish and no play with these thoroughly professional adapters. The solution is you have to supply lens power separately. At this time the popular way is off the camera battery with the cable seen below.

Q: 8. is this adaptor crop the image from a 2/3 fujinon 4.8 lens?

A: Sorry, but we are not understanding what you are asking regarding a 4.8 lens. We can say that if you have a Fujinon 2/3 HD lens that has a 2x extender built in, you can now use it on a Canon or a Sony camera with a Super35 sensor. (It will not work on a full frame sensor for it will vignette.) Regarding field of view, I suggest forgetting crop factor and learn what is wide, normal and tele is for the format you are using rather than calculating the crop factor of a format you are not using. For example, in Super35, 18mm is very wide, 32mm normal and 60mm tele. If you use a typical Fujinon 8.0-128mm Quick Zoom ENG HD lens and engage the 2x extender, it now is a 16mm to 256mm lens. This will give you the focal lengths for what you need to do and much more.

Q: 9. Plan to purchase this MTF mount adaptor on my Sony PXW FS5 with the Canon HJ11ex4.7B lens, any advise of how's the quality ? and is there any other cheaper lens mount option in the market ?

A: MTF Services Ltd quality is a world standard and nothing is better made. The quality is commensurate to it's price and it will be the best long term solution for you. This adapter will allow most if not all of the zoom range of B4 2/3 lenses when used on a Sony FS5 in 2k (crop) mode. Note: you will lose 0.8 stop of light. The only other option, the FotodioX Pro Lens Mount Adapter B4 to Sony E Mount, while much cheaper, does not have a lens to expand the image. Thus the B4 lenses only work at the telephoto end with the 2X doubler engaged. Even then, they have unusable wide angle images. This is all due to the fact the B4 lenses are designed for much smaller sensors than what the FS5 has.

Q: 10. What is the weight limit for a lens mounted on this adaptor?

A: HelloWe use it with Canon J 20X, J18X and J 14X lenses for Panasonic Broadcast Cameras in wildlife scenarios and have no problems except that it narrows the angle of view in about 30%. But as we use for ultra close ups of animals, its ok. So far a very good product I should have had before....
