The wireless operating range is more than 200 feet.

Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. Can this kit be used on Samsung Galaxy 3?
A: I used it on a Galaxy S5 and it worked great. Not sure, but it would probably work with an S3 as well.
Q: 2. How well does this system work with Canon 5D ?
A: This is considered an entry-level, basic wireless microphone system, and should work fairly well depending upon the distance and operating environment. Depending upon your particular project or application you may very happy with its performance for the price/value paid.
Q: 3. Can the microphone system be used with a Panasonic model HC-V180 camera?
A: If the camera has the standard 3.5mm audio input jack, then yes.
Q: 4. how do I mount a WR-Pro wireless receiver on a Sony HDR-CX430V video camera?
A: Unfortunately that camera has a hot shoe on it. So you have nothing on the camera to attach a cold shoe to. But you can circumvent this minor problem with a Vello CB-510 Dual Shoe Bracket. This bracket will screw into the bottom of the camera where you would normally attach the camera to a tripod. Instead you will screw the Vello bracket onto the camera. This device will now give you 2 cold shoe mounts that are part of the bracket and a rubber coated handle that you can now use to hold onto your camera. The Azden receiver should have a shoe that came with it that attaches to the back of the receiver. All you have to do is slide the shoe mount on the receiver onto one of the shoes on the Vello bracket. Then plug the output of the receiver 3.5mm plug into the camera. Here is the B&H part number for the Vello bracket. B&H# VECB510
Q: 5. Can we record a video at the same time as recording the voice?
A: Yes.
Q: 6. Can the receiving transmitter be mounted onto a DSLR shoe mount? How (do I need an adapter)?
A: The receiver has a clip-on adapter that mounts on the shoe.
Q: 7. Can this wireless mic system be used with an iPhone 6? If so, do I need a special app on the iPhone or does the sound feed directly into the camera app?
A: The Azden WMS-PRO will require a special cable to use with a smartphone. The Rode SC4 is designed to allow standard mics to connect to the smartphone input jack. a href= http://bhpho.to/1w6S7tG target= _blank http://bhpho.to/1w6S7tG/a This will function with almost any app that is able to record audio.
Q: 8. Does the FCC still allow these frequencies for wireless mics? i understand zsome of the frequencies have been changed fpr wireless microphones.
A: Yes, as of this moment, the PRO Series frequencies (169.445MHz and 170.245MHz) are still allowed for unlicensed use by the FCC. As far as we are aware, the FCC has no plans to make changes to their rules regarding the VHF bands. Both changes in recent years and current plans for future changes mostly affect the UHF bands.
Q: 9. How well does this system work with GoPro?
A: Hello Jonathan. Thank you for your inquiry in regards to the WLX-PRO+i VHF Wireless Lavalier Microphone System. This system is best suited for use with DSLR and mirrorless cameras, as well as mobile devices (using the included TRRS adapter cable). For GoPro filming, you wouldn't need the +i version of this kit, but merely just the regular WLX-PRO. If you still want the flexibility to record video with a mobile device in the future, you can purchase this kit and just omit the adapter cable when filming with GoPro. However, we do recommend our PRO-XD 2.4GHz Digital Wireless Microphone System when choosing to shoot with a GoPro, as that system has a more compact form factor and adjustable gain from the receiver going into your camera. We hope this information helps in your decision and thank you for choosing Azden!
Q: 10. Can I use a 3.5 mm stereo to XLR adapter to use this on a professional camera?
A: Yes you can use something like BH #KOAXMMF for that solution.
