How to choose a microphone for streamingCondenser, dynamic, cardioid or XLR?

The Boya BY-WM5 radio system with a lavalier microphone for sound recording works via a wireless connection, which provides high-quality signal transmission over a long distance.

Two way communication

The system consists of a fixed waist-mount transmitter and a hot-shoe-mounted on-camera receiver. Its main advantage is the presence of an additional earpiece for the transmitting side and a headset for the operator, which allows for two-way communication over a long distance. In simple words, the operator has the opportunity to give remote commands regarding the behavior in the frame and the quality of filming in general.

Range

The claimed range of the Boya BY-WM5 is 50 m. In reality, this figure can be safely doubled — in the line of sight, the sound is transmitted over a distance of more than 100 m and worsens only if you stand with your back to the receiving side.

High quality

The signal-to-noise characteristic once again confirms the high quality of the microphone — a value of 76 dB indicates excellent sound purity and a professional orientation of the device. Only the maximum ceiling of the frequency range, which stopped at around 14,000 Hz, pumps up. But this is completely uncritical.

battery life

The quality of communication between the receiver and the transmitter is quite sensitive to batteries, which are 2 AAA batteries. On a single charge, the batteries can provide 3-4 hours of continuous recording.

"Price — sound quality"

The radio system will be an excellent acquisition for reviewers of various devices, as well as auto and motorcycle equipment. In terms of "price-quality sound recording" it is one of the most attractive options with wireless on board.
