The cocoa Countryman B3 Omni Lavalier Mic for TS-170, TS-190, TSP Transmittersfrom Countryman B3 Omni Lavalier Mic for TS-170, TS-190, TSP Transmittersis a water-resistant, miniature lavalier microphone for capturing high-quality audio. It can be used in a variety of applications such as a tie-clip lavalier in interviews, a hair-hidden mic for drama, a water-resistant mic for water sports and hurricane reporting, or simply a small mic to hide in a prop flower vase.

The B3 capsule is resistant to moisture (IP67), which allows for placement in the hair or on bare skin, and its omnidirectional polar pattern minimizes handling noise, wind noise, and plosives (popping). Furthermore, a variety of skin-matching colors are available. This B3's cable terminates to a LEMO 4-pin connector for direct connection to TS-170, TS-170p, VHF TS-190, and TSP Beyerdynamic wireless bodypack transmitters Additionally, a carrying case, two cable clips, a windscreen, and three protective caps are also included.

Looks great when you want to see it, virtually disappears when you don't. The B3 is easily hidden in hair or on costumes, with five colors to match clothing, hair, and skin tones. Use a felt tip marker to color the white caps for near-perfect concealability. Never suffer the hassle and degraded sound quality of under-clothing miking again.

The B3 is resistant to makeup, sweat, and moisture when used with the supplied protective caps and works well in hair or on the body. The protective caps are easily removed for cleaning or replacement, and the aramid-reinforced cable gives it world-class survivability.

The B3 provides high-quality audio with low distortion at SPL up to 140 dB for wireless applications. The aramid cable and thin diaphragm combine to offer low handling noise. The flat-frequency response accurately captures voice or instruments, and the small size makes the B3 easy to position for ambient noise and feedback rejection.

Changeable protective caps let you shape the frequency response for different situations or to match other microphones. Versions are available for different speaking or singing styles, with high-overload capability for recording instruments.

Standard, for most uses.

Q: 2. Does this need a special plate to attach to Wimberley Mono Gimbal head-MH-100? Can I use a FLM 50 or 40 arc plate if one needed?

A: The Sigma TS-111 works as an arca-swiss compatible tripod foot and will fit in any arca-swiss clamp. Depending on your set-up, you might need a longer plate to balance it on a gimbal head, although with the MH100 you shouldn't have much issue. Yes, you can use those plates if necessary, but there isn't much benefit to using them in this case.

Q: 3. What are the differences between this and the full-size Bridge X_TS, besides VGA and AES connectivity? Are the SDI/HDMI functions identical on the two units?

Q: 5. Is this tripod compact enough to fit as carry-on for airplane travel?

A: The answer depends. The short answer is: probably not. The overall dimension of this tripod aren't provided by the manufacturer, but based on the other tripods around this size, I would estimate its size to be approximately 22.5" long with a apex diameter of about 5-7" around. It's not a compact tripod, relatively speaking. Technically, as long as you can fit that into a carry on that meets your airline's limit (typically 22 x 14 x 9 domestic and 21 x 13 x 8 international) it should not be an issue. The TS-84C comes with its own bag as well, which by itself is not guaranteed to meet your airline's overhead limit, likely due to the width of the overhead bin. Depending on many other factors, your airline might allow it, or subject it to check-in only or gate check, so it's best to contact your carrier directly and check how strict they are with their carry-on restrictions.
