@ThatOneVirgil Good review of this device. As an Audio Engineer, my gripe with these lower budget audio devices are that they lack a locking 1/8" connector for the lav. Additionally, not having the ability to change out the batteries makes me less Incline to use them on a real set. And then the fact that they are a 2.4 GHz band introduces the possibility of interference without the ability to adjust frequencies is what keeps them in the lower tier of wireless systems. Now, credit where credit is due is the fact that this system provides convenience, portability, and good enough sound quality to pass for either personal projects or small indie sets. All in all, for the market they are going after, they are good. I wish they make an adapter (like DJI does) to work with Sony's multi-interface shoe to limit the cables. By the way, for this type of wireless system, I use the Sony ECM-W3.
What mic do you film with?

You didn't hear it from me, but they do have an adapter for the Sony MI dropping (supposedly) this month 😉
