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 tan and features a Switchcraft TA3-Female connector for Samson 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 1mm Diameter 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 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: 9. Looking for the best wide angle for this camera that is full frame? I liked the 10-20mm f/4 lens but it's APS-C and I would also like to throw it on my fx3 or fx6 also.

A: For autofocus lens recommendations, the Sony FE 14mm f/1.8 GM Lens, B&H # SO1418GM, and the Sigma 14mm f/1.8 DG HSM Art Lens for Sony E, B&H # SI1418SO, would be the widest rectilinear full-frame fixed lens for the Sony Alpha a7 IV Mirrorless Digital Camera. For a zoom lens, the Sony FE 12-24mm f/2.8 GM Lens, B&H # SO122428GM, or the Sony FE 12-24mm f/4 G Lens, B&H # SO12244G, would be good options. If you do not mind focusing manually, the Venus Optics Laowa 9mm f/5.6 FF RL Lens for Sony E, B&H # VE956FE, would be the widest rectilinear full-frame fixed focal length lens, and the Venus Optics Laowa 10-18mm f/4.5-5.6 Zoom Lens for Sony E, B&H # VE1018FE, would be the widest full-frame zoom lens for use on the Sony Alpha a7 IV Mirrorless Digital Camera.

Q: 10. I am trying to connect a7iv to a mixpre 3 ii? what is the best way to do this to record onto both camera and mixpre sd card?

A: The Sound Devices MixPre-3 II 3-Channel / 5-Track Multitrack 32-Bit Field Recorder has a 3.5mm Stereo Out connection, which could be used to make a hardwired connection to the 3.5mm input on the Sony a7 IV Mirrorless Camera via a standard, stereo 3.5mm cable. Alternatively, with the appropriate cable, this same output connection could feed a wireless transmitter typically used for lavaliers while the correlating receiver mounts onto the camera, receives signal from the transmitter, and inputs it into the camera for a "wireless camera send".
