The Countryman EMW Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone is designed to reproduce vocals, musical instruments, and ambient audio sources with pristine detail and minimal handling noise. The capsule is highly resistant to moisture, making it a suitable solution for outdoor use, placement against skin, etc.

Clear audio reproduction with low rubbing and handling noise is a result of the EMW's omnidirectional polar pattern. The shelved frequency response features a smooth +6 dB boost between 2 and 15 kHz. This is the standard response for lavaliers worn on the outside of clothing (lapels, jackets, etc).

A wide variety of colors and connectors are available for use with various wireless transmitters. This version is beige and features a Waterproof 2.5mm sub-mini connector for use with Lectrosonics wireless transmitters.

The EMW is available in three frequency response types and this version features a shelved frequency response that compensates for reflections lost when mounted on the outside of clothing and fabric. The shelved response is standard for lavalier microphones worn on lapels, jackets, etc.

The square EMW lavalier is available in a variety of colors that virtually render the entire microphone invisible against the skin, allowing you to select the version that is best suited for your application.

The attached cable is made of durable, break-resistant Kevlar for rigorous use without shorts or wear.

The EMW is credited for providing pristine audio with minimal handling and rubbing noise, due to its omnidirectional polar pattern.

This square, moisture-resistant capsule is ideal for use in humid conditions, on skin, outdoors, etc.

Q: 1. Is it steady enough to hold a Nikon D3s + 70-200mm f2.8 or 200-500mm lens?My concern is especially if the tripod is steady enough at the center column not moving or shaking while panning.

A: Yes. I use it with my sigma 150-600 sport lens and it works great. It is rated for 33lbs. I think.

Q: 2. Can the legs be taken apart like other tripods if sand and salt water eventually make its way in? Are the seals replaceable if they wear out?

A: Yes, the legs can be taken apart for cleaning, though I have not had to do so, despite regular use in sand and salt water. The seals can be replaced, and the manufacturer provides instructions on how that is done. I have used Gitzo and Enduro tripods, and this tripod is the best I have owned for use in and around water and sand.

Q: 3. Will this bag hold a Nikon cool pix 1000

A: Yes, the Nikon P1000 will just fit in that bag.

Q: 4. Would the RRS 55H work on this tripod? And would suggest this or the manfrotto 055 for using with a sigma 150-600?

A: Yes. The Sirui W-2204 Waterproof Carbon Fiber Tripod is compatible with the RRS BH-55 head. The Sirui is waterproof, taller, and lighter weight than the Manfrotto 055. Both would be fine for use with the 150-600 lens.

Q: 7. Is this bag big enough to hold a Canon 5Dmk3 with a Canon 100-400 ii attached?

Q: 8. How well can this tripod fold around Markins Q10 or similar ballheads with wider pan base then tripod column base?

Q: 10. What levelling base (for panoramas) would be best for this tripod (in terms of function, fit and cost effectiveness)?
