4.0 out of 5 stars Bluetooth Mic. System, July 20, 2009

By	J. Fuller "Legal Eagle" (USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

The Sony Bluetooth mic system's functionality and ease-of-use is consistent with the quality of most Sony products. I use it in the legal profession and so far it has performed to my expectations. If there is a con or a down-side to this particular piece of equipment, I would say that it is the battery usage. I used it on three (3) separate occasions totalling about 4hrs on the same battery. There is a blinking red warning light on both pieces, but you have only a minute of two before it goes dead, so have fresh batteries close by.

5.0 out of 5 stars Almost perfect solution for better sound, October 13, 2009

By	Mr. David P. Barr - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase

The sound recording ability on my camcorder was adequate for providing background sounds to holiday videos but when I wanted to carry out interviews the subjects voice wasn't sufficiently prominent. Wireless microphones can be expensive and although this product isn't cheap it does perform well. There is a blue indicator light on both transmitter and receiver as a visual indication this connection is active. At first I thought this was a benefit but its quite bright if you are recording you can get it shining on the subject especially when using the clip to fix the mic to a jacket or shirt. I'm going to cover with tape this in future. Apart from this tiny niggle the device is easy to set up and is quickly dismantled fitting in a soft bag supplied. The sound is clear and with both the bluetooth picking up the sound from the subject and the camcorder picking up ambient sound the finished effect is good.

5.0 out of 5 stars Sony Wireless Bluetooth Microphone review, August 26, 2009

By	Jayson Carr "woodyrimshot" (Texas, U.S.A.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Works very good and definatly has a range of 300ft+. As an audio engineer, I will tell you that this mic is very clear and user-friendly. For the price, it is worth it to any one searching for an affordable device with high quality audio! I recommend this product to everyone!
