The Sennheiser EW 112P G4 Wireless Lavalier Mic Systemcamera-mount wireless lavalier microphone system features the proven combination of reliability, flexible control, and broadcast-quality sound that has made the EW Series an industry standard for videographers, journalists, and content creators all over the world.

The EW 112P G4 gives you the tools to adapt and meet the wireless challenges that inevitably arise on set. The frequency scan function automatically searches for the cleanest frequency at your location, while the adjustable input sensitivity on the transmitter accommodates mic levels ranging from booming voices to quiet speech, and even line-level audio.

The system includes the improved ME 2-II omnidirectional lavalier mic, a bodypack transmitter, and a camera-mount receiver. It connects to a camcorder or a DSLR/mirrorless camera to capture crisp-sounding speech or dialog for projects ranging from documentaries to wedding videos, corporate spots, and hands-free interviews.

The EW 112P G4 is backward-compatible with previous evolution systems, giving you the ability to mix and match G4/G3/G2/G1 receivers or bodypack, handheld, and plug-on transmitters. It is also compatible with EW 500 systems.

Q: 4. Hi, just bought two of these. When I plug them into the separate XLR channels on my Sony fs7, there is a noticeable hiss being recorded. When I only plug in one, the hiss goes away. Any suggestions? Thanks. Each is set to a different frequency.

A: Try each channel individually to see if there is a noise floor isolated to one channel. I would also recommend double checking that the level from each system is as close to the same as possible.

Q: 5. What is antenna diversity? I'm looking for what I call "true" diversity - multiple receive antennas.

A: "If you glance at the Sennheiser EK 100 receiver, you only see one antenna. However, if you write it off as a non-diversity system, you are mistaken. The EK 100 features a technology called “adaptive diversity,” which utilizes the connected output cable as the second antenna, making it a diversity receiver. By using the ground connection of its output as the link to a second antenna, it provides improved reception and reliability" Taken from "Understanding the Basics of Sennheiser G3 Camera-Mount Wireless Systems" https://www.bhphotovideo.com/explora/pro-audio/hands-on-review/understanding-the-basics-of-sennheiser-g3-camera-mount-wireless-systems.

Q: 6. Kind of 2 questions: Whats the difference between the frequency models? It shows A, A1, & G with different frequency ranges. Which is best?

A: The frequencies have nothing to do with range. The range on all these is about 300'.It really doesn't matter you can pick whatever frequency block you want. You can run as many as 4 or more units in the same frequency block. When you reach a maximum of let's say 4 units in the same block. Then the next unit you would need to change blocks. So 4 A's then switch to A1 for the next 4. So it only matters when you are running several units at the same time.

Q: 7. Can you tell me the serial number of these product?

A: The serial number is only provided after you purchase the wireless system. We cannot provide a serial number for an item that you do not own.
