Notes on use

In addition to this Help Guide, please read “Notes on use” in the Startup Guide (supplied).

  • While audio recording is in progress, touching this unit or the connected TRS audio cable with the 3.5 mm diameter plug (commercially available) may cause noises to be included in the recording.
  • Depending on the using condition, an analog connection with this unit may cause noises to be included in audio recordings.
  • To use a camera compatible with the digital audio interface of the Multi Interface Shoe or a device with a USB audio input capability, make a digital connection with this unit. When a radio device is nearby, keep this unit sufficiently away from the device.
  • If the headphones are placed near the microphone (sound pickup unit) during recording, a howling effect (acoustic feedback) may occur. If this happens, place the headphones farther away from the microphone, or lower the volume of the headphones.
  • Do not hold the camera only by the receiver. The receiver may be damaged or the camera may fall.
  • Before you carry around the receiver, be sure to remove the receiver from the camera, attach the connector protect holder/stand (supplied) to the receiver, and place it in a pouch for connector protection.
  • If dust or water droplets are present on the surface of the microphone, a successful audio recording may not be possible. Be sure to clean the microphone surface before using this unit.
  • When you do not intend to use the receiver, slide the connector of the Multi Interface foot into the connector protect holder/stand for connector protection.
  • When the microphone is used at low temperatures, the battery performance drops compared to when it is used at the normal temperature (25 °C (77 °F)), which makes the operating time shorter.
  • In the event of radio interference to another device while using the receiver, stop using the wireless function.
    Radio interference may cause a malfunction of the device, resulting in an accident.
  • When the stand and/or pop guard are attached to the microphone, avoid gripping them too tightly or waving the microphone around with excessive force, as this could cause them to detach and result in injury. Hold the microphone itself when carrying or handling it.
