3.0 out of 5 stars Acceptable but not great, August 1, 2003
This review is from: Sony WCS999 Wireless Camcorder Microphone for DCR-DVD101/201/301 & DCR-HC20/30/40/65/85 (Electronics)
I bought this for use with my Sony camcorder. I chose it because it was a 900 MHz system rather than the 100 MHz systems from Hysonic, etc. The included lapel mike is not very good. Lots of distortion and very cheaply made. I tried a better quality Radio Shack lapel mike, #33-3013 and got much better results. Compared to putting the mike right into the camcorder, the wireless transmitter shows considerably more noise and lower sound level. No noticeable difference in frequency response, at least for voice recording. Dropouts started occuring when I was about 50 feet away. Bottom line is this isn't broadcast quality but certainly adequate for amateur use.

4.0 out of 5 stars Not that bad, August 25, 2004

This review is from: Sony WCS999 Wireless Camcorder Microphone for DCR-DVD101/201/301 & DCR-HC20/30/40/65/85 (Electronics)
It certainly isn't Hollywood quality, and I wouldn't use it for music.

But for interviews, the sound works just fine, especially considering the price.

My only real complaint is the clip for the lavalier. Unless you can slip it into a lapel hole, it will generally fall off if your subject moves more than a tiny bit.

Bottom line: I'd buy it again for the kind of shooting I do.

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome! Works great with my camcorder, December 8, 2008
I've used other products in the $200-$300 range and have never gotten the results I was looking for. This does just fine. The 900mhz signal is very good and does not distort. Your camera person can listen in using a headphone. Plus, there is an additional "mix" port on the receiver. You can actually plug two of these together for an interview setup, with no additional hardware needed. Make sure your camcorder has a mic input. Also, if your camcorder requires a powered mic, this works fine. I hope to upload a video review soon to show the quality.
