Who doesn use wireless microphones?
So who doesn’t use radio mics? I’m fairly new to the wedding video business but have a background in documentary film making. In the past I have had trouble with radio mics (expensive trantac systems) involvind interference/loss of signal but have ususally been able work around it. But it seems in this business you also have encounter situations where you cannot use them at all in some churces The wedding ceremony (esp. the vows) however is such a ‘one off’ event that I play safe with a Zoom H2 in the groom’s inside jacket pocket (a bit bulky and I’m looking for a slimmer alternative if anyone has any ideas) and a lavalier on his lapel – this picks up the B&G OK. I also have a Zoom H2 positioned nearby to pick up the officiant and as backup in case the other fails. I also plug a Zen Nano plus into the house system if possible. OK it takes a little while longer to synch up in post but worth it I think. I would like to know your thoughts.
