The cocoa E6 Omnidirectional Earset Mic, Highest Overload, with Detachable 1mm Cable and TA5F Connector for Lectrosonic Wireless Transmitters from Countryman is a vocal microphone with an adjustable boom that weighs less than one-tenth ounce. It is a water- and wind-resistant microphone that can be used on either ear for capturing audio in houses of worship, theater, or outdoor vocal and speech applications.

The low-profile, omnidirectional 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 three omni caps (very bright +8 dB, bright +4 dB, and flat +0 dB) that deliver response characteristics for most other applications such as recording flute and violin. The E6 Earset is available as a directional microphone too with cardioid and hypercardioid caps. This omnidirectional E6 Earset's cable terminates to a TA5F connector for direct connection to a Lectrosonic SM, SMa, SMb, SMDa, SMDb, SMQ, SMQa, SMQV, SMV, UM400a, or UM450 wireless bodypack transmitter.

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 140 dB SPL capability.

The E6 provides high-quality audio with low distortion and an SPL of up to 140 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.

For strong vocals.

Q: 10. Will this unit fire the SB-5000 speedlights? I have a Nikon 800e (yes, I can use the on camera flash to trigger them, but I am doing close up work with reflective surfaces and need to have no light coming from the camera.)

A: This will work perfectly with the SB-5000. You can set your 800e so that no light comes from the camera during the actual exposure. I have heard people say that light still comes from the camera during the exposure using the on-board flash, and, maybe on some work -- like close up work -- it's just not perfect. That's what I hear you saying. This is your answer.
