The brown, 50' L-4E6S Star Quad XLRM to XLRF Microphone Cable from Canare is especially designed for handheld microphone applications in live sound, rehearsals, and other situations. In addition to mic-level signals, the cable can also be used to carry line-level signals such as for connecting your mixer to power amps.

The L-4E6S Star Quad cable features a 4-conductor design that is engineered to substantially reduce vulnerability to electromagnetic and radio-frequency interference when compared with 2-conductor cables. It uses 21 AWG copper wire, which features cross-linked, flexible irradiated polyethylene insulation, which is designed to maintain maximum frequency response and to be more heat resistant than ordinary polyethylene. It also utilizes braided copper shielding, which is designed for greater noise rejection and durability than spiral shielding.

The cable also includes cotton filler, which is in place to help to cut down handling noise. This can be beneficial in handheld microphone applications in which the cable may be subject to a substantial amount of movement.

Q: 1. Fuji 55-200mm

A: 50-140 has much much faster focus, and 50-140 is also weather resistant. But the 55-200 is great for a backpack or a weekend trip if you don't really need a 2.8 lens. Very sharp.

Q: 2. I want to use this on an XH-1. Is there any benefit to OIS when you have IBIS?

A: The body and the lens will work in tandem to offer the best stabilization, typically the ibis will do most of the work.

Q: 3. Recently purchased the SEETEC ATEM156 Monitor to work with my ATEM MINI PRO. my four camcorder outputs are plugged into the Monitor's inputs; and the monitor's outputs are plugged into my ATEM Mini Pro; and its output to 4/1 switch to multiple TVs in our church. Our mixer is plugged into the ATEM Mini Pro. How do monitor the audio source of the ATEM Mini Pro from the SEETEC ATEM156 Monitor's headset? I only hear/see the camcorders audio.

A: With the layout you mentioned, you are not able to monitor the audio mix from the ATEM Mini Pro on the monitor. The monitor itself is only going to hear and see what you plug in to it, which in this case are the 4 camera feeds, not the program out from the ATEM Mini Pro.

Q: 6. What is the mp count when mounted to a Z5?

A: The megapixels will drop to 10.3.

Q: 7. I just got this lens and I'm noticing it losing focus when zooming, is this a setting I need to change in camera or is it the nature of the lens?

A: This is normal for a still photography lens. Only very high end cinema lenses are truly parfocal (retain focus across zoom range).

Q: 8. Does anyone know which way the focus works on the XF lenses? Does it pull closer to the right like canon lenses or is it the opposite like Nikon, and some Sony lenses?

A: You rotate the lens' focusing ring to the left to reduce the focus distance, and rotate the focusing ring to the right to increase the focus distance out to infinity. However, you may go into the menu and go to BUTTON/DIAL SETTING FOCUS RING to reverse the direction of rotation of the focus ring.

Q: 9. Anyone using this for indoor high school sports, basketball, volleyball?

A: Yes, the Sigma 50-100mm f/1.8 DC HSM Art Lens for Canon EF would be a good option for sports photography usage needs. It would be the equivalent of a 80-160mm f/1.8 lens on a Canon EOS DSLR camera that uses their APS-C 1.6x crop sensor. As long as you are close enough to frame your images as you desire (you would need to be closer to your subjects than you may normally be when using a 70-200mm f/2.8 lens), you should be fine, and the f/1.8 aperture gives you 1-1/3 stop extra exposure, so you could use a lower ISO setting or a faster shutter speed setting compared to those you have used with the 70-200mm f/2.8 lens. For example, if you were normally shooting at ISO 2000 to get f/2.8 at 1/750 sec to freeze action, you would now be able to shoot a similar image at f/1.8 at 1/750 sec and instead use ISO 800, which would give you less noise. The lens has decent autofocus performance in low light, and you may fine-tune the focus performance using the Sigma USB Dock and/or the AF Micro-Adjustment feature in your camera (if available, depending on your camera model).

Q: 10. Any estimates for battery life for v mount operation?

A: When choosing a V-Mount battery for the FeelWorld ATEM156 4K 15.6" Quad-Split Monitor with 4 x HDMI I/O for Switchers, there are many different operation length options available. A 98Wh battery will give around 3.5 hours if you are bringing in 4 inputs and looping them out with the screen using maximum brightness.
