The cocoa B3 Omnidirectional Lavalier Mic, Low Sens, with Hirose 4-Pin Connector for Audio-Technica 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 Hirose 4-pin connector for direct connection to an Audio-Technica ATW-T1801, ATW-T27, ATW-T31, ATW-T51, ATW-T201, ATW-T210, ATW-T210a, ATW-T310, or ATW-T310b wireless bodypack transmitter for use with 200 Series, 1100 Series, 1400 Series, 1800 Series, 2000 Series, 2000A Series, 3000 Series, or 3000A Series wireless systems. 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.

Q: 1. Does the unit have optional manual iris control or is it auto iris only?

A: This camera doesn't have a dedicated button with 'A', 'S', and 'P' settings, but each of those modes can still be set; it's just a bit fiddly.Summary:To put the camera into 'A' (aperture-preferred mode), you will put the camera into all-manual mode, then set the shutter to auto, then set the gain to auto. This will leave you with manual control of the iris.Details:1. Put the camera in full-auto mode by pushing the FULL/AUTO button. Then push the same button again; this will clear everything, puttin all functions into full manual mode (except for focus, which is handled separately).2. Adjust the IRIS to your desired setting. Keep in mind that this may change as you zoom, because the maximum aperture is f1.2 only in the wide-angle range; it decreases to f3.5 pretty quickly as you zoom the lens, dropping to f2.0 about midway through the zoom range.3. Press and hold the SHUTTER button on the side of the camera; this puts the shutter into AUTO mode. The shutter speed indicator will disappear from the LCD screen.4. Set the GAIN to AUTO mode (AGC). This is the fiddly part. You must first set default values for the GAIN switch's L, M, and H positions. The camera default is L=0, M=3, and H=6, but I changed those to L=0, M=6, and H=AGC. So, flipping the external switch to 'H' then sets the gain to AUTO. I also put these settings into my FAVORITES menu for easy access.You can also set the upper limit for the gain. I've set mine to 18db, because anything above that is really noisy. So, in AGC mode, my camera won't go above 18db. If you're desperate to record that evening campfire scene, there's always the LOLUX button, which sets the gain to 30db.5. Exposure compensation. You can tweak the exposure settings by pressing and holding the AE LEVEL button until a white box appears on the LCD screen (AE +/-), then adjusting exposure up or down with the little arrow buttons located on the lower-left side of the camera, nearest the battery. Note that, in low light, this may not have any effect if your camera has already reduced the shutter speed to 1/30 and set the AGC to its maximum.If there's an easier way, I haven't found it. The key points are A) to set the defaults for GAIN, and B) to remember to turn FULL AUTO on and then off at the start. Also note that you can use this same approach to put the camera into 'S' (shutter-preferred) mode.

Q: 2. I need to use a step-up 62-to-72mm adapter but seems like the hood holder doesn't allow the adapter to screw in. Any idea how to fix that, I think there is no way to remove the holder, unless someone has an idea on how to do that, or alternatives?Thanks

A: The hood on the GY-HM170UA can be removed if needed. To attach a filter, step-up adapter or wide angle lens to this camera's 62mm filter thread you will need to remove the hood. How to remove the hood is demonstrated on page 16 of this manual:http://bit.ly/2deiNa0
