The Countryman E6i Omnidirectional Microphone is a miniature earset microphone for virtually invisible operation in stage performances, trade shows, houses-of-worship, auctions, lectures and much more.

The omnidirectional version is most common in applications where feedback issues are not very likely. The microphone can be worn without a windscreen as the omnidirectional capsule provides excellent wind noise rejection.

The E6i is set apart from the original E6 with its softer flexible boom and silicon ear-pads. The flexible boom provides ease of boom adjustability to accommodate multi-user applications.

A wide variety of colors and connections are available for use with various wireless transmitters. This version is cocoa and features a 4-pin Hirose connector for specific* Audio-Technica transmitters.

A miniature omnidirectional capsule is mounted to a low-profile, flexible frame with silicon ear pads. This lightweight, unobtrusive design is available in various colors that virtually render the entire microphone invisible against the skin.

The included 2mm Diameter Duramax Cable detaches from the actual headset, making it completely replaceable in the event of a short or break. The replaceable cable design makes upgrading wireless microphone systems easy, as they are available in a wide selection of connections to accommodate various wireless transmitters. The Duramax 2mm diameter cable provides extra strength, flexibility and durability.

The omnidirectional polar pattern is most effective in minimizing wind noise, plosives (popping) and handling noise. The flexible boom provides a custom fit for multiple users and close microphone positioning while minimizing off-axis noise. The E6i is also available in a cardioid version for maximum off-axis noise rejection in environments with high feedback and noise.

This E6i sensitivity response is optimized to accurately capture general speech without noise and distortion.

Q: 6. 1080p oversampled?

A: No, there is no claim of oversampling of 1080p footage shot on the Sony Alpha a7 IV Mirrorless Digital Camera (Body Only) (B&H# SOALPHA). That feature has been exclusive to the a7S series such as the a7SII and the a7SIII. However, shooting in 4K and then "downresing" to 1080p using video editing software will produce extremely sharp 1080p.

Q: 10. what is the fastest the camera can write/read an SDXC card for still pics? The 280 mb/s is about double the $ over the 95 mb/s card. Anyone know?

A: The manufactures do not list how fast it actually records an image or video to a card.It is a fast camera but most cameras today will not see that speed card. And the 280 MB/s card is UHS 2 and that camera and most are compatible with UHS 1. So that would not be a card I would use in the camera.For still photos the 95 MB/s is fine. In general you do want to use the fastest card for video. That helps prevent issues and corruption while recording video which is a lot of data.
