very funny little radio buttonhole lensgo 348c

hello there, and just a week ago I did a review of this thing, row 2 buttonholes 1 goal, and then the guys from the rockroad show sprinkled me with all sorts of goodies in terms of sound and among them it seemed a very funny little radio buttonhole lensgo 348c and I didn’t want to do such a comparison test at first, but honestly guys, it doesn’t look so similar that it won’t do without comparison, and today I want to review the check, well, of course, the test of radio lapels, mangold348, a chain that is very similar to the roadworn from the goal, so let’s go, inside we have such a nice case for storage and simultaneous charging, which, by the way, is convenient and a little male, and of course, the manual and here such a magnetic thing funny one tell with varnish so cable trs trs cable trs trs cable trs trs which implies that you can connect this radio buttonhole directly to your smartphone and it kind of hints to us that for bloggers this is quite a comfortable and convenient thing, except for the fact that it hints to us with a cable also hints at the price because the price of this loop Ichka is quite democratic on Amazon the price for a set of transmitter and receiver is 160 bucks and for a set of two transmitters and 1 receiver such as I have two hundred and forty-five bucks and with us it is 250 dollars the difference is not very big which is nice and now I’ll try to draw my conclusions whether buying a cheaper device is justified and we don’t overpay Are we branding for a brand of mouths that do a fairly similar thing because there is a first version of a freely sgau where one transmitter is one receiver and a second version where there are also 2 transmitters and 1 clever, so you need to buy a set of two transmitters if you at least plan to shoot two people if you publish a blog that does not involve shooting two people at the same time, overpaying for 2 transmitters, in general, there is absolutely no sense, let's go over the main pros and cons of radiosystem events go 348 c, the most important ii plus the largest and plus is that this buttonhole writes on itself, including that is, firstly, it transmits a signal to you on the camera and Secondly she writes to herself and this is very important to friends, and because cheap radio systems that operate at 2 and 4 GHz have risks cheap radio systems have risks of explosions and signal loss if there is an overlap or if you do not have a reflected signal, that is, if in their clear field you turn away from the receiver’s cameras and block the buttonhole with yourself most likely you will have an explosion if you work in a studio or in some room where there is a way to reflect the radio signal, then most likely there will be no explosion, but nevertheless, the fact that the buttonhole writes to itself insures you that after shooting you will remain a rejected sound and the sound of the guys can be restored if it is not there it’s impossible, therefore, this is its most important plus, well, my row 2 1 goal of the first version does not have a record in itself, respectively, if I received an undermining, then there is already an undermining, I won’t do anything with this if I monitor the sound through the camera, then I can rewrite it immediately, but if I write, for example, a block on the phone where and I do not insert headphones to control the sound recording then I receive I already discovered the explosion when I came to the installation and this is a huge problem that this radio loop is solving, accordingly, with this she won immediately po2 alice goal now let's see what else she has for pluses and what minuses are further, so the size itself is the size of the radio buttonhole, in general, very close files with a goal, they are also a little small - it’s a little more than a couple of millimeters compact case in general it kills compactness, but nonetheless no one forces you to carry it, you can charge at home wear a buttonhole just in your pocket they are really very small and so the size is also a big undoubted plus because when you go with the minimum set I did this in view of the minimum the size of the blogger kit is very important. Is there charging on which device, that is, and the box is charging, this is a definite plus, of course, it would be cool if it also had a built-in battery, but this can be solved using a powerbank, but because it is charged from a standard and usbtype-c, respectively, in a powerbank that is stuck here, they solve the issue of charging, but I won’t say that in the process of shooting you will have to charge because this system is charging for an hour and a half, firstly, you need such a long pause to charge this whole thing, and secondly, most likely you will have an outlet somewhere, so it’s really a small problem, and even more so the button itself in the simple transfer mode, it works up to 7 8 hours receiver 8 hours transmitter 7 hours in recording mode when the transmission also writes on itself, the buttonhole works for four hours, that is, it’s not enough, but nevertheless it’s not a problem for him, considering again that the hinges themselves also have a connector and usb type-c and you can, in principle, and even recharge the following separately plus same as urouter yo someone what it has a built-in microphone and the ability to connect an external microphone; it has its own microphone, which we will test today in the studio and then we will definitely test it in the field, and you can connect a loop to it if you are not satisfied with the quality or if it is not convenient for you to hang such a balobuli, well, somewhere on yourself than Lensky definitely surpasses mine war outcast the first version is its windscreen because the novalis windscreen lip rips off when you touch it just here the windscreen is attached with such specific tendrils and rip it off by accident absolutely impossible wiles go 2 versions the windscreen holds a little better but nevertheless this mount wins welcome unambiguously fixing the windscreen a definite plus to start recording on yourself internal recording you need to hold the record button in for 5 seconds after which the red LED lights up and this is also a plus if you shortly press the button, the recording will not stop, that is, if by chance somewhere inside the pocket the button is pressed record it will not stop you need to hold it for 5 seconds too to stop the recording, that is, here is the protection against stopping accidentally stopping the recording is a very, very useful feature for me, the only thing that I don’t really like is this huge red light because if you hang a buttonhole on yourself, a red light is on here, which I don’t want for example to see in the frame it’s one hundred percent, this is a minus, that is, it’s possible just to stick it with a stick and everything will be neat, because all the same, the blue LED would also be seen here, which doesn’t go anywhere, so a piece of tape solves this terrible problem, the next one and plus it’s compatibility with cameras and phones in general tower is good the same story you can connect both the dslr kit and the phone here here are 2 cables in the kit which immediately hint to you that you can use this system together with the phone that it charges it's all through type-c this is the next plus for me because I have almost everything on connector type si and this 1 says that this is a fairly recent model because if it were older there would be micro usb here type c and this is good and it is convenient next and plus this price is the price of 250 bucks for the version with two transmitters abroad for me the version with two transmitters costs 370 bucks one hundred and twenty dollars is almost half the cost of this device, respectively, if today's tests show us that in terms of quality it is not inferior to a welcoming loop, then this will be a very correct choice, the manufacturer himself notes how its main plus a multi-level noise reduction system will not say anything here, we will conduct tests and you yourself will hear everything is there such a thing or not, and here we are for this strange coin that comes with the kit, this is because the buttonhole is attached to a clothespin the same as but it has a neodymium magnet that can be removed and these guys are honestly both a plus and a minus for me because I am a lover of reliable fasteners and the more reliable the fasteners are, I like it better poet I don’t know, I would classify this magnetic attachment system as a plus, because there are convenient moments, for example, to put the receiver on the camera into the hot shoe in the cold one in this case and then shoot it to look into something in me, you need to pull it out of the shoe, you can simply peel off the magnet and and because the receiver is for sure the same story, the receiver is also attached through such a magnet; the second of the advantages is that you can quickly remove it from your clothes, move it somewhere and generally quickly remove the clothespin that will interfere with you, for example, if you put it in your pocket and use it as a transmitter with an external buttonhole, but with all this, guys, I will say that this is a minus for me, solely from the fact that I still like the fasteners to be tightly and these removable things, to be honest, I don’t really like it no, it won’t come off if you don’t hook it specifically, it won’t come off, especially since the loop does not imply, in general, some kind of extreme impacts because she hangs on you either on the collar where you are both and don’t hook anything and it’s really convenient with dogs and there or you will have it somewhere on your belt where it will also be covered with clothes, I don’t know, on the one hand, a cool system, on the other hand, I don’t know why, except to use this coin, because when I hang a loop on clothes without zipper is a disaster to hang on the collar up this is the worst option because the buttonhole normally works normally removes the sound when it hangs at the level of the lapel of the jacket this is a very convenient place where you can hook your loop if you have clothes on which it is normal to attach a buttonhole this coin will help you we put it under the clothes and on it outside we hook the microphone, it holds decently enough if you don’t hook it again, it won’t go anywhere in the general position, you can find it on any clothes and the second moment you can stick this coin to some place with double-sided tape and attach the radio microphone there, let’s now finally connect the loop to the camera and I’ll give you cons I’ll tell you directly into it and you now have the opportunity to compare the sound that we wrote on the dragged dr 40 which is just a bomb I reviewed it it’s a gorgeous recorder and in general it’s wrong to compare boards with this buttonhole so I’ll make another test recording for the people of alice gold, which you can just compare with it now when I’m already talking in the buttonhole, first of all, let’s listen to its level of native noise, that is, complete silence, I turned off the computer and the only thing that works now is the studio light, complete silence, and now about the minuses, firstly, about + 1 I’ll say that we made a separate recording, this is very good separate recording by channels in the version with two transmitters why is this important, because now I’m talking in one buttonhole that is written on both channels, if I turn on the second loop now, 2 loops will steam automatically, that is, there are no settings here and now I’m talking in this loop and in this loop, but at the same time if you have 2 speakers and one of them happened what -tabbing while in it time says different, that is, you don’t need this sound, then this sound will also be pulled into the general recording, so I speak into this buttonhole, but this is overwritten and I have a general problem now, simultaneously on both lengow channels, you can press two buttons on the receiver at the same time by pressing two buttons to separate these channels and one loop will be written one channel the second loop the other channel let's try now my loops are written separately each to its own channel and when I speak in this loop I have overwriting in this loop then I can turn off this channel now I have a problem this will be deprived again this problem is solved by pressing the record button now I started recording and if you have some kind of problem on one of the loops during simultaneous recording, you can easily solve it by taking the sound directly from the card, this is very convenient, again, the card is good because there is non-built-in memory, firstly, you can change them, and secondly, it is much easier to merge onto someone through a card reader than directly sang that is, if in if you need to give someone the sound, then with a card it is much easier to solve it on the card, the sound is written with more compression than it is transmitted to the receiver, now the sound comes from the card, firstly, let's listen to the silence, and secondly, this is already one of the minuses that the compression when recording to the card is quite large and the second minus is me I would call with a delay of 20 milliseconds the delay in the transmission of the radio signal and for more expensive competitors the delay is 5 maximum 10 milliseconds and now you can check if I have a desynchronized polyp syngon, that is, if you see this time synchronously, then you are a gourmet and you need to look for a more expensive radio system if you do not see a delay, I will not edit anything here if you don’t see the delay in lifting, then everything is ok, then on the transmitter there is only one power button and a record button if you want to turn on the new mode for mutating the buttonhole without turning it off, you need to quickly press the power button twice a double quick press switches the buttonhole to the new mode and again takes it out of this mode The main disadvantage for me of this system is that I don’t have a signal level indication on the receiver, I can see it in the camera, and if the camera has a headphone output, I can monitor it with my ears, but if my camera does not show the sound level, I can’t control whether my sound is off-scale, for example this is probably the only minus for me too, because I can somehow overcome all the rest, given that it is cheaper than you can imagine, this is a very good way to affordably purchase a radio loop that is very necessary for a blogger in work, let's now compare how much the sound quality of the lensgo 348c competes with the buttonhole road your forest is naked in the loop at the same distance, they are set up the same way and now we are listening to the sound from the loop of the mouth wallis golma, firstly, we listen to the silence and the noise level, secondly, we listen to the level of the overall sound, how rich the sound is, and we will also try to record the sound straight here on vodka and we will understand how the loop is resistant to closing and how comfortable it is to work on here is such a distance how the buttonhole is resistant to the problematic piranha sound when we speak directly into the microphone, firstly, how close it is, and secondly, how well this multi-level noise suppressor copes with it, now I clearly speak into the buttonhole row 2 1 goal and in general you can now at this stage already choose what kind of sound do you like it anymore no filters are applied sound processing did not give in and now we and my friends will move on to the test of the loops of the nms goal on the street in the field conditions in more difficult conditions although I still want to do one test for overlapping the whole compete term we have finished I have returned to lengow and then we are already working only with it here now I want to check how much overlap can be a problem for the studio, because the main work happens like this in the studio and we will close it with our hand, close it tightly if the signal is lost now, but if there is some kind of mashing, it’s not a problem, but if there are signal explosions, this will be a problem if the buttonhole is switched with two hands breaks, then it’s already unpleasant if now the signal is normal, then in general it’s normal and I also want to turn my back on you for a while if the reflected signal works fine for me now, in general, there is no problem because I completely blocked the buttonhole with the body and I think that now there was no disappearance either, because the reflected signal still solves it somehow this problem, let's now move to the street where there are no so many reflected signals and test the buttonhole for wind resistance and a little distance anyway, and now we are testing the buttonhole with you in working conditions on the street with a blowing wind, the wind is not very strong, but nevertheless I know that without wind protection it was blowing mercilessly now and now we are checking now, firstly, how well the buttonhole works under the conditions of the blowing wind from the wind protection, then we understand that this is a stupid thing to do, but we will take the wind protection with you so that we have something to compare, let's with them, this is how the buttonhole will work with the light protection now the breeze has died down, I think blowing now about the protection back sorry for now I think everything is fine with us now secondly we will now check your overlaps firstly I will slightly move away from the camera and block the body because in principle we are still in the working areas and now let's move away from the camera we will check when the overlap with the body how well the buttonhole will work here is the normal area of work for the growth frame here a little less than ten steps, let me cover the buttonhole with myself and check what happens with the sound, because here it should still be normal now let's increase the distance to twenty steps, which in principle is also a normal distance, because at such a distance you can still work here I can also read this and in order to talk before we talk, let's see what she tells us, we need to do a real test with you now, not advertising and in general honest and absolutely one two three and five two three 4 5 two three 4 5 two three 4 5 sausage one two three 4 5 3 4 5 1 2 3 45 1 2 3 horse here everything works for us already the next test test in the car when we write in the car the car makes some sounds of its own although the stove and music are now naturally turned off but still there is some kind of background noise how well the buttonhole copes well with such background noises and a slight echo because the car is an enclosed space in which the sound is not the best the best, but nevertheless we sometimes have to shoot in this place, so the next test is a test in the car and at the same time we listen to silence and the final test is a test with an external microphone, I now use the lensgo 348c as a transmission and use the battle microphone which I have already tested a lot of times naturally with a windscreen now we will put this transmitter put it in a pocket where, in general, the overlap is small, but at least some layer of fabric is dark and check the sound with an external microphone as a transmitter. nym recording, but nevertheless, you can solve this one with a peak, but using a buttonhole is a very very neat and correct option too, in most cases I still use external buttonholes, although they write a decent sound, and now there was a test with an external microphone in general, I have a very positive impression of these kids, we got it such a hardened such a thorough test, I hope that I have revealed everything and the nuances for you, therefore, in choosing whether to take it or not, you can already decide more precisely because for its price this is a very good kit, a very good kit and I think that Lance Goal is already some kind of brand that is trying to keep its name and in general, it won’t do frank bullshit because the new sea loops are just a disaster, but here the sound is generally quite acceptable and I could overcome some and the minuses, in general, I could also, therefore, I really liked this thing wenge 348 c only the name is very complex, and so the buttonhole I really liked its capabilities and the quality of work and in general, its price in the near future, guys, we will go through the sound very seriously, I have a studio cardioid microphone from lengow with which they are trying to move to an already professional level, and here is another pro level, this radio buttonhole will also win the sgau 338 c here is already an attempt to enter the profit market for work not for a blog because the buttonhole is made at a professional level and in terms of performance and quality it is much higher than this one baby there is still one yummy here is such a booster signal amplifier for 338 c for the professional series which we will check if it can flash through concrete walls and some terrible obstacles that radio buttonholes are impossible so guys thanks for watching let's try to drop a little deeper in the sound and I hope that among this good we will find something tasty for ourselves something useful thanks for watching Feel free to write in the comments what you think about this thing and about my channel in general, if you are specifically interested in something, be sure to leave a comment and I will try to return to this in your department because I have a lot of plans in my immediate plans, I definitely need to do something according to Da Vinci I didn’t post anything unnecessary for a long time, and there’s also a whole huge bunch of goodies there, and after the wild guys, I also really want to shoot some video of shame in the coming days. I also have several plans.
