The black Sanken COS-11D Lavalier Mic for Lectrosonics Transmittersis a subminiature lav microphone designed to deliver clear, full-bodied sound and reliable performance, making it a popular choice among industry professionals in broadcast, TV, theater, film, videography, and more.

Engineered to meet the standards of modern digital wireless microphone systems, the COS-11D is RF shielded to eliminate interference issues and ensure a pristine audio signal. The microphone capsule features a rectangular design that sits vertically, increasing the surface area and allowing this tiny mic to offer a rich, full sound that outperforms many larger models.

The mic's 50 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response rolls-off extreme low end and provides accurate, transparent audio reproduction with a small presence boost in the 6 kHz area for crisp, intelligible speech. With a forgiving omnidirectional polar pattern that picks up sound in a 360° pattern, levels stay consistent, even when the subject turns away from the mic.

A water-resistant mesh screen protects against humidity, perspiration, makeup, bad weather, and other potential on-location issues, while the durable cable is also moisture-resistant and built to stay soft and pliable, even after extended use. This version of the COS-11D terminates in a TA5F connector and is wired for use with non-servo-bias Lectrosonics transmitters. Accessories are available separately and are not included with this configuration of the microphone.

For Broadcast, Film/Video & Presentation Omnidirectional for Consistent Levels Wired for Lectrosonics Non-Servo TA5M Normal Sensitivity Level Rugged 5.9' Cable Stays Pliable RF Shielded for Digital Wireless Water Resistant Small Size, Easy to Conceal Requires 3 to 10 VDC

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Does this fit over the regular foam windscreen included with the mic or is made with the foam integrated with the furry similar to the rode videomicro's? Thanks!

A: This has open-cell foam inside to go right over the VideoMic NTG specifically.

Q: 2. Is it okay to keep it in the rain or should the antenna be covered with a plastic bag?

A: The Lectrosonics ALP620 Perforated LPDA Shark Fin Style Antenna is not IP-rated; therefore, it cannot be left out in the rain. Using a plastic bag or rain cover to protect it will actually affect the wireless range of the antenna, making it prone to RF interference.

Q: 3. is this price for a pair or single

A: This antenna is a single unit.

Q: 4. will this work in an Olympus ZX1?

A: Unfortunately, the Lectrosonics LB-50 Rechargeable Li-Ion Battery Pack for SSM Transmitter & IFBR1B Receiver is not compatible with the Olympus ZX1.

Q: 5. is this protective case black as in the photo or blue Porta Brace?

A: It is black.

Q: 6. this unit come with one 3.7V battery or two?thanks.

A: One.

Q: 7. Can the Lectrosonics PCA900 Printed Circuit LPDA Antenna be used on a wireless microphone system?

A: as long as the frequencies match and you have an antenna input that will accpet a 50ohm BNC.

Q: 8. Does this Rycote Softie Kit MFR #033395 work with Schoeps CMC641-- MFR #CMC641G SET?

A: Yes, the Rycote 033395 Softie Kit for Sanken CS-M1 Microphone with Windshield and Shockmount can also be used with the Schoeps CMC641 Set Colette Series Supercardioid Microphone.

Q: 9. Is there an adapter for lectrosonics compatible (TA5F) lavs, or would I need to get new lavs for this?

A: Although we have seen custom adapters to convert TA5F to 3-Pin Lemo, we recommend using lavaliers with dedicated wiring for the Lectrosonics SSM Digital Hybrid Wireless Miniature Transmitter. B&H does not offer adapters of this nature at this time.

Q: 10. Compatible with the canon R5C

A: The DJI Mic 2 MI Shoe Camera Adapter is not compatible with the Canon R5C.

[Black] I've been wanting to get these for so long, and it didn't fail my expectation! Easy to hide, super clean! 5

Michael P.	07/09/2024
[Omnidirectional] Works great with my Sennheiser ew112 G3 transmitter and receiver. Nice and clean! 5

Mark	02/09/2024
[Plug-In Power] What can I say, they are simply the best. 5

Shon	23/08/2024
[Omnidirectional] This is an excellent mic for commercial use. It is one of the smallest with excellent sound! 5

Clark	02/08/2024
[Omnidirectional] Knew the COS11D was worth every penny, works perfectly with my Sony UWP wireless system. Would highly recommend! 5

John	02/08/2024
[Plug-In Power] I devoted a lot of time to researching lavalier microphones before I settled on the Sanken COS-11D. I looked and listened to all of the on-line comparisons I could find and read the technical data. I wanted top sound quality for spoken voices and different options to conceal the microphone. B&H had the XLR connector model in stock and it fulfills all of my wishes. Additionally I have a Sony ECM-55B lavalier, a great mic with a long reputation (and also a great deal from the B&H Used store) but it is relatively large in size. Ive tested the Sony vs the Sanken in different environments and bottom line, the Sanken is the clear winner for overall sound quality. it is that much cleaner and crisper with a lively presence and brightness, even when tucked behind a collar. I will buy another one of these if/when I need another lavalier. 5

Randy	16/07/2024
[Plug-In Power] Clear, crisp sound. Works perfect with our Sennheiser Evo Wireless. The amount of ambient noise this mic rejects is unbelievable. May seem pricey, but it's extremely well worth it! 5

Alan	13/07/2024
[Omnidirectional] Sound quality is several steps above the competition and I've used several.Vocal quality is pristine -you cannot go wrong for either Lectrosonics use OR with available XLR adapter, using with direct connections to cameras/recorders. 5

Chris	03/07/2024
[Plug-In Power] My favorite lav. Love the sound, low noise floor, and they are easy enough to hide. Perfect all around. 5

Jason	25/06/2024
[3 to 10 V] I've been wanting to get one of these for years but the cost has prevented me. My Sennheiser MKE1 (which I Loved!) finally went out on me so I'm went with this next. So far I Love it!! 5
