Sony Professional UTX-B40, Wireless Bodypack Transmitter with Omni Lavalier Mic (UC14: 470 to 542 MHz, UC25: 536 to 608 MHz, UC90: 941 to 960 MHz)

Sony Professional UTX-B40, Wireless Bodypack Transmitter with Omni Lavalier Mic (UC14: 470 to 542 MHz, UC25: 536 to 608 MHz, UC90: 941 to 960 MHz)

The demand for high-quality audio is increasing as high-resolution content becomes prevalent in the video production industry. Today’s content creators are faced with the challenge of capturing high-quality audio quickly, reliably, and with limited resources. Offering superb sound quality with digital processing, reliable RF transmission, true double tuner diversity reception, and friendly features, the UWP-D series is an ideal partner for ENG (electronic news gathering) and EFP (electronic field production), as well as documentaries and weddings.

MAIN FEATURES

• Digital Audio Processing for high-quality sound: Advanced digital audio processing technology by Sony assures high-quality sound with improved transient response performance. A new [optional] digital audio interface enables direct digital sound recording with many Sony professional camcorders and Alpha interchangeable lens cameras via the SMAD-P5 Multi Interface MI shoe adaptor, bypassing A/D and D/A conversion stages to further ensure excellent sound quality.
• Fast, easy frequency setting: Sony’s uniquely user-friendly NFC SYNC feature allows quick, intuitive secure channel setting between transmitter and receiver.
  
• Light, compact design: Reduced system size and weight enable superior mobility in a wide range of applications including news, documentaries, weddings, and remote production. The receiver’s compact size and light weight make it an ideal partner for using small camcorders and interchangeable-lens digital cameras.
