The light beige Countryman B3 Omni Lavalier Mic for TBP06 Transmittersfrom Countryman B3 Omni Lavalier Mic for TBP06 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 1/4" connector for direct connection to TBP06 Line 6 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: 1. Considering Benro B3 vs benro B4 any pros or cons to the quick release plate?

A: The Benro B3 comes with the PU60 plates (60mm long) versus the Benro B4's PU70 (70mm long). Depending on the size of your camera and the position of its battery door, either plate might obstruct it, but the longer plate has a higher chance of doing so.

Q: 2. What is the screw size and thread pitch of the ball head female hole ( where you attach the arca clamp)?

A: While Benro indicates the thread size of the screw socket on the base of the Benro B3 Triple Action Ball Head is a 3/8"-16 female-threaded socket, and the thread on the top of the quick release plate is a 1/4-20" male thread, they do not indicate the size of the thread holding the quick release clamp to the ball stem on the ball head.
