The black E6 Directional Earset Mic, Highest Gain, with Detachable 1mm Cable and 2.5mm Locking Connector for Lectrosonics Wireless Transmitters from Countryman is a vocal microphone with an adjustable boom that weighs less than one-tenth ounce. It can be used on either ear for capturing audio and rejecting unwanted sound, feedback, or surrounding noise from stage monitors or nearby speakers in houses of worship, theater, and outdoor vocal and speech applications.

The low-profile, directional E6 Earset virtually disappears against the skin, so performers forget they're wearing a mic. Three sensitivity options cover general speaking to extremely powerful vocals and four color options allow you to match the E6 to your skin tone for minimum visibility.

In addition, the E6 Earset features a pattern-changeable directional microphone for maximum isolation and gain before feedback, but is available as a water- and wind-resistant omnidirectional microphone too. This directional E6 Earset's cable terminates to a 2.5mm locking connector for direct connection to an Lectrosonics M170 or M175 wireless bodypack transmitter.

The Countryman E6 head-worn Earset is small and lightweight, and is hardly visible from a distance.

The E6 Earset's stainless steel boom is built tough and can be bent and re-bent many times to fit different performers. The E6 is highly resistant to makeup, sweat, and moisture when used with the supplied protective caps.

The flexible boom is easily shaped right on the performer's face and is available in multiple skin tones. Their protective caps let you shape the frequency response for different situations or to match other microphones; caps for the directional earset adjust the pattern from cardioid to hypercardioid. Choose a sensitivity for speaking or singing with up to 145 dB SPL capability.

The E6 provides high-quality audio with low distortion and an SPL of up to 145 dB. It delivers rich, full band audio quality.

Easy adjustment keeps the mic in a position for rejecting unwanted sounds. Countryman's omnidirectional Earset offers a reduction of 12 dB compared to a lavalier mic, while the directional E6 Earset provides even more isolation. Excellent for houses of worship, theater, and outdoor events.

An E6 replacement cable installs in seconds. The snap-on cables are rugged and available for almost any wireless transmitter or for XLR inputs with phantom power.

For general speaking.

Q: 2. Does this work with the new 1Dx mark 2

A: Nowell, I have just returned from playing with a pre-production version of the 1Dx MkII. I can confirm the 3 pin cable release port is unchanged. However for those interested, it has been relocated from the left side of the camera to the bottom on the right side. This, move was to make space for the Ext Mic port. Also, in Aus, the MkII will be sold bundled with a 126Gb CFast card and reader. I don't know about other markets. Hope this helps, Mark...

Q: 6. How do I get a Canon Rebel T6 to complete all shots in bracket mode (AEB) with the Shutterboss in Interval Mode? I have the camera on burst and AEB, which works fine and gives me three bracketed shots when I hold the camera's shutter button down, but the Shutterboss only depresses the shutter long enough for the next shot of the bracket.

A: Have to change the mode on the Shutterboss to get more than one shutter press. There are a couple of ways to do this. One, just push the right button on the Shutterboss and it will change the single box at the bottom of the display (shutter controls) to a continuous shooting box. This will have it press the shutter multiple times in a row until you let go, but doesn't stop at the end of your bracket. The better way, IMO, is to keep pressing to the right until you get to the intervalometer settings. I leave DELAY at zero, LONG at zero, INTVL at 1 second and change N to the desired number of bracketed shots (press and hold the center button of the directional pad to change). This way, one button press of TIMER START/STOP (not the shutter button) will automatically press the shutter button the desired number of times and stop.Hope this helps!
