Re: Wireless Systems

Philip , sorry you took my post the wrong way. I was just trying to save you the grief and bumpy road I have been down over the years.

Sure a $500 - $600 system can get you by on a shoot most of the time. It did for me, until I am shooting the president of a local hospital in front of 3000 plus and it bit me with dropouts. Or shooting the CEO of a fortune 500 company and he turns slightly from the podium and he voice fades. After a couple of these I decided never again. Of course any wireless can have troubles at any time, but bettering the system lowers the odds IMO.

In a staged shoot I have the liberty to ask for retakes if I question the audio, but in a live shoot I have one chance to get it right, and I do everything possible to make sure I get it.

One thing I have learned from shooting video over the years is if it can go wrong it will.

Good luck, again I don't think anyone here is trying to do any thing here but help you out

Later
Tom
