The purple, 100' 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: 3. Any warranty for this lens

Q: 4. I am awaiting receipt of this lens and have a question about AF with the EF 2X III tele extender. I realize that this will create an f/11 aperture, so no AF through the viewfinder, but I have heard that Live View can be used to autofocus. Is that true?

A: Yes, that is generally the case among cameras possessing a live view autofocus capability such as Canon's Dual Pixel Autofocus feature. More recent Canon cameras that could use the Canon EF 100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM Lens (B&H# CA1004002LIS) (such as the Canon EOS 5D MKIV, 1DX MKIII, or mirrorless RF-mount cameras with an adapter) will be more capable in that respect. The 2X teleconverter will reduce the effective aperture (thereby increasing the aperture number) by two stops.

Q: 5. How sharp is the new 100mm-400mm compared to the 5.6 400mm prime?

A: I am a 76 year old woman, average size...I can't believe how great this lens is. I shoot hand held and am happy to report this lens is sharp. I have never used the 400 prime and the reason I bought the 100-400 was weight and versatility considerations. I am so very happy to enjoy the freedom of hand held shooting with excellent results. I highly recommend this lens. btw, have used it hand held on Whale Watching trips (sharp tails) birding etc...just a real delight to use.

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.

Q: 9. I shoot high school football games and use the 70-200. I'm primarily interested if anyone has used both of these for this purpose? Pros / cons? Thanks.

A: I have also shot many h.s. football games, and the 70-200 is my choice. Rarely do I need the 400mm range, but I am shooting from the sidelines. If you are in the stands, the 100-400 would be better.
