Audio-Technica PRO 88W-830 Camera Mountable VHF Lavalier Wireless System (T13: 169.445 & 170.245 MHz)
terrible interference
these mics were completely useless, even from about 20 feet. constant interference. I am in NYC where theres lots of RF, maybe they would work better on top of a mountain, or in a remote field, but who knows. they are the least expensive lavs I could find, so no big surprise.

It is very easy to use
These are very easy to use for me as the photographer. Decent range, my talent never really got much further than 100 ft from me, and they still came through very clear.Device has two channels to use. Everything about using this product is common sense.

Great for low cost!
These are perfect for anyone starting out and looking to get by on a budget. I've used these previously at a small business I worked for, so I ordered some up for my own video business. Used them this last weekend filming promotional videos for ice fishing gear. Outside, on a frozen lake, they preformed almost flawlessly.

The Good and the Bad
The GOOD: Product is easy to use. You need (2x)9v battery for the transmitter and receiver. Device has two channels to use. Everything about using this product is common sense. The BAD: The camera adapter shoe mount that comes with the device does not fit true to my dlsr Nikon 5200. I can't attach it because it's gap is too small. I had to bend the adapter shoe mount to make it fit. Now, the mount has cracks. The lavalier microphone picks up an i... Show More

Awesome Product!
I am very much a novice at recording the events of which I speak at. I am a speaker and not a techy, but was recommended to purchase this wireless mic to hook up to my camera and it was so very easy to hook up the FIRST time. I even did it WITHOUT looking at the instructions and it worked PERFECTLY! Thank you VERY much for this awesome product WELL worth the investment!

I purchased this product twice!

Good starter Lav unit
I wanted to buy a Lav mic but didnt want to spend 500 bucks. So I saw this unit, did some research, and decided to buy for an outdoor shoot around NYC. The unit was pretty easy to set up, just needs some batteries, and its pretty much ready to go. I read some reviews that said they may get some itnerference but for my shoot I had no problems with these, the sound quality was great for the price, and did its job well. I see this as a very good starter unit if you want a Lav mic but don't want to spend alot. (Not sure how durable as I have only had them a short time, but so far so good.)

Good for the Price
These work great for being only $$. I use them as backup but they still go a pretty good distance.

Best Value
I wasn't looking to buy a professional mic at a high price. I Googled wireless mics and this set looked it was just what I was looking for. Performance is very good and setup was easy.

Wireless Mic System
Works great. Use it for product videos and church videos. Make sure to get the XLR adapter.

Works well
The other reviewers describe this unit well. It is a great value, and works as advertised. I was using it in an outdoor video shoot, where I was the audio person. It was a dynamic situation, where we were videoing a horse trainer, doing an exercise that moved her and the horse around, so I had to move as well. A few staticky moments as we shifted position, but overall, good audio quality that I can work with.

Easy and works great
Using these in a office environment plugged directly into the mic input of a video camera. Works great, no issues. I normally used a wired configuration via a mixer to provide a much cleaner sound, but for the times I need a wireless mic this is ideal. Low cost, not much distortion and easy enough to clean up with a filter in post production.

Great Wireless Mic
Not being a sound engineer and in need of consistent audio, when my guy isn't able to assist, and worked out just fine. I was able to film about 60ft away and audio came through with out any lag or choppyness. The mic attachment that comes with the receiver and transmitter however isn't ideal for most situations (let's all noise in) so I recommend getting an additional mic such as a shotgun microphone or a better clip mic.

Not bad. Some interference
I used it about 3 feet from someone off camera and I got interference. The mic is an omni-driectional mic so it picks up everything. It does a good job but I think it would have come with something a little more focused to pick up only the subject that is wearing it.

Afforable and reliable
I've used this mic with my D7000 and produces better sound quality. the range is good too.

Best bang for your buck
When the search began for audio equipment, I knew the first place I should call is B&H. After speaking to someone in the audio department, I was guided in the right direction and recommended this lavalier microphone. Overall, I am very impressed with the sound quality. The build on these microphones reflect the price. They are sturdy, although, they look cheap. The range is incredible! But as far as sound goes, I highly recommend this mic if you are on a tight budget.

Good for the price
I had an older model since 2010 and I recently bought 2 more. I use them for smaller gigs and they do just fine, Ive had no problem with them.

Rremains to be seen
I've only used it once so far and it was a tad noisy/fuzzy. It was consistent and low level so I could easily remove it in post, but hopefully this won't be the status quo with this lag'.

Great Wireless Microphone! Great Price!
Great microphone for the price. Being for a business, I had to search the internet for the best bang for my buck. The reviews for this mic were very helpful and all were positive. First impression was that the lapel mic itself was very small and flimsy...but after testing it, I was quickly proven wrong. I purchased this to be used in a kitchen setting filming cooking demonstrations. It didn't pick up any signal interference or shirt rustle. Even the cooking utensils didn't interfere with the speech. We also tested the microphone in our large classroom with overhead speakers -- sounded great!

Exceeded Expectations
I read the reviews before buying and was stressed during my one-chance interviews that I might end up with ruined sound. Once I loaded the videos on to my computer I was relieved to hear high quality professional sound with good vocal range. Happily I experienced none of the rustling, popping, or radio interference I was worried about from other reviewers. In fact, the sound was so excellent I wonder if they were using the same mic?
