Hey guys, my name is Tom and today we're gonna be talking about this guy right
here this is the fine tech wireless mic lab
system so I recorded this video twice the first time I did it I actually did
it outside hey guys I'm Tom and today we're gonna be talking about this guy
right here yeah I know it's it's it's completely out of focus and that's why
we're here because I want to be able to make a video that's not terribly cringy
and painful to watch while we talk about audio and we're just gonna we're gonna
supplement some of the clips from that first time recording and right now so
right now you guys are hearing audio from my rode videomic pro plus it's a
quality shotgun mic and it's what I use when I'm vlogging and I'm shooting
on-the-go content so fun fact I just released a hash tag team trees video to
help promote the two million trees planted before 2020 courtesy of micro
Burr and mr. beast Jimmy Donaldson so let's get out there
and let's plant some trees when I recorded that video I actually used this
wireless system right here there were a couple instances where the audio did
have some feedback and I do want to try to recreate some of those instances so
we can kind of figure out what are the what are the benefits to buying a budget
lab mic system versus anything else so before we get into any of the field
testing we are gonna go over what's included in this box we have a
transmitter the transmitter is powered by two double-a batteries it comes with
a belt clip which is important you guys are gonna see why in a minute and we
have a setting button as well as our power on and off the screen is backlit
which is super nice in case you're recording in the dark I also has a
battery indicator and it's great it is what it is also included is our receiver
it has a toggle switch on and off this is powered by two triple A batteries
kind of obnoxious in my opinion the first thing you're gonna notice that's a
major issue when hooking up your transmitter to your camera is that there
is no thread that you can on the top of this bad boy so a quick
fix solution that I came up with was buying a hot shoe mount with the thread
and adapting a mobile phone holder to the top that way you're able to just
kind of clipping your transmitter pull your antenna and then hook it on top of
the camera now along with this because this obviously would not fit in your
camera is this adaptive right here this is a quarter inch to eighth inch it's
about it's not about it's exactly 10 inches long that's what she said or he
said it's it's a perfect line no so we would do power this on hot shoe mount in
plug into our camera and then our transmitters ready to be our receiver is
ready to be received and what we have is two options for microphones the first
option is an over the ear headphone mic the second one is the one you guys are
mostly going to be using and that is just a regular lav mic with a clip so
the cord on this lav mic is about four feet long which in my humble opinion is
more than enough for you to wrap from your hip chain your shirt up a jacket
Demma sleeve whatever you're gonna do you know it's it's your world you live
it the transmitter in my car met with a three-prong mic out it locks into place
to unhook the microphone from the transmitter there's a little black
button you push it and pull it's great it locks in wonderful technology let's
hear it for tech belt clip boom back of your belt and you're ready to get going
and talk to a camera so now that we went over what's included in the box and a
little bit of the specs behind the item I'm gonna show you guys some of the
blurry footage and what we're gonna do is we're gonna take it from 50 feet to a
hundred and fifty feet and see how the microphone tops out at those different
distances guys are gonna notice significant changes in audio I just want
you to be aware this is just in camera microphone on the Canon 80 D and this is
the mic from the five fine wireless mic system so the one thing that I did want
to do is do some real field testing you guys might be hearing a lot of cars
driving by it's because we're also gonna test this inside of a studio space
so you can kind of hear the difference and I'm not gonna put on any EQ on any
of the audio for this entire video and if I do so I can show you what you can
get out of this mic I'll make sure to label it in the video alright so you
guys might notice behind me I put up some markers there increments of 25 up
until 100 and then we go to 150 so what we're gonna do is we're gonna head back
to each line and I'm gonna talk to you guys I'm going to talk to the left talk
to the right and then completely turn around does she give you guys a better
idea of how the signals being transmitted from me to the camera let's
do it so right now we're at 25 I hope I sound all right this is not that far
away Here I am facing to the right talking Here I am facing to the left
talking moment of truth how do I sound guys 25 feet facing the opposite way of
the transmitter 50 feet also not that far I also have the receiver again
pointing the antenna in the direction towards me
hopefully I sound alright now - now facing to the right 50 feet now facing
to the left 50 feet 50 feet totally turned around hopefully I still sound
good guys a little further away now this is something you would still be able to
hit lens wise with a 55 200 I would still come in clear and hopefully I
sound good guys matter of fact what we're gonna do it to them just so it's
not to seek me out here is we're going to switch lenses but this is a hopefully
we're still sounding good facing to the right facing to the left totally turned
around hopefully you guys can still hear me we're gonna switch lenses and then
head to a hundred feet oh man I hope this is working
just getting my exercise in for the day
I got we are now at a hundred feet away from the camera and hopefully this is
seeing but we are at a hundred feet and right that me and now we are facing
right facing right hundred feet away from the camera facing left
100 feet all right here it is 100 feet away from the camera guys how do we
sound let's back up we're gonna go 50 feet snap here we are a hundred five
five minute turn to the right 150 feet away this isn't something you like I
mean you wouldn't have like a separate light unless you're gonna run like like
an odd hey let me ask you a question sir this is left 150 feet completely turned
around at a hundred and fifty feet away from the camera I'm so curious to edit
this audio man okay so we're back in my room and I have you guys are you guys
are hearing audio through the Fife I'm Mike I've yet to edit anything so I
don't know how it sounds quite yet so I will say that it's fairly easy to set up
the units themselves are no bigger than like an iPhone they're small enough and
compact enough to fit inside of a camera bag and not take up enough space I have
yet to try the headset mic though I'm plugging directly unplugging we're not
even hooked up yet okay and here we are this is a lot closer right now so I'd be
curious how this sounds as well it might be peaking there I don't have any sort
of indicators on my camera right now but this is the this is the headset mic
laugh system with the wireless mic let's uh let's get it a little further away
from my mouth so you guys don't hear popping I'm sure you're hearing popping
so even a little bit further out away from my mouth so if I go or you guys
hopefully don't hear that heart into the microphone it feels good this actually
isn't as annoying as I thought it was gonna be I can't imagine using it for an
actual video but the other other way you could obviously use this system is
through a PA through a board have this wireless for a speaker so budget fine
tech wireless microphone lab system the thing about five fine is it is super
budget-friendly so if you are in need of a wireless lab system I highly recommend
you just going and taking a look at some of the
some of the items that five pine does have to offer in the past I reviewed a
USB gooseneck mic which I was actually pleasantly surprised with you guys can
use that stuff for voiceovers for podcasting whatever you decide it's a
USB mic so it has to be plugged into a computer to use but you know it's budget
that's exactly what this company is known for budget product alright guys
and that's gonna be it thank you so much for watching if you are interested in

the comments regardless if you guys are interested in buying this lab system
there's a link to an affiliate below for Amazon that's where you can get it and
the price of this microphone setup is this I don't I don't know what it is but
