The beige E6 Directional Earset Microphone, Highest Gain 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 does not come with a cable or a connector (sold separately).

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.

A: My practice for this kind of question is to go to the Sony website and search for the DCR-SX45 digital video camera recorder. When you find the product page for the DCR-SX45, look again for the available accessories for the DCR-SX45. If the RM-VPR1 is listed as an accessory, then it is very likely that the RM-VPR1 will work with the DCR-SX45. But a caution: just because the 'VPR1 will work with the 'SX45, does not mean that All of the functions available on the 'VPR1 will be usable on the 'SX45. Or, you could just Sony's help line.

Q: 8. 1) Is it possible to shoot 5952x3140 at either 50fps or 59.94fps in full frame? 2) Is it possible to shoot 4096x2160 in either 50fps or 59.94fps in full frame? 3) Is it possible to shoot 3840x2160 at 50fps or 59.94fps in full frame? I’m just trying to understand if there is a crop factor that gets applied if I shoot in 50fps or 59.94fps? Thank you.

A: According to Cinema5D, “Cinema RAW Light can be shot at 5.9K and 4K at up to 60 frames per second, and at 2K in up to 120 fps in a cropped mode, unfortunately. Once you switch to the XF-AVC codec in 10-bit 4:2:2, you can shoot 4K DCI, UHD, 2K and HD only, there’s no 5.9K option in this codec. (4K is delivered by 5.9K Oversample processing so no image crop applied). With XF-AVC you can also shoot up to 60 frames in 4K, and 120 frames in 2K and HD – but only cropped.”
