Great product for the money

I don't how long the other reviewer's here have used a Nady 151, but I have used one since 1990(THE SAME UNIT)and I'm tremendously pleased with it.It is more prone to dropout than a true diversity system at distances of over 25 feet, but for the price...

Cheap Unit

 

Returned the product.

Unit was easy to connect to camera

Sound would cut in and out and at times would not work at all. The sound quality was poor. The unit is cheaply made. Could not adjust settings without a special tool

Upon removing supposedly "new" unit from box, discovered marred "level" adjustment screw indicating prior misuse. Unit did not work because of poor transmission and faulty female jack plug on transmitter. More than 30 days elapsed between the time I...

Did not work - out of box

I really wanted this budget buy to work for my limited videography needs. After 1 hour of testing every component (mic, transmitter, receiver, batteries, levels), I determined that the lavalier mic and also the transmitter each did not work at all. ...

Nady 151VR-HT Professional Microphone

 

The unit works well. They could have built in better access to the gain adjustments and inlcuded a tool for them. Also the output being only a 1/8" connector required us to go out and purchase adapters to work with the inputs of the XL2 camcorder.

Inadequate Description

 

It was not until I received the product that I realized it was for use with a camcorder. The description neglected to mention this significant piece of information.

Product Specifications

The Nady 151VR is an accessory that no video enthusiast should be without. This wireless microphone system for camcorders not only vastly improves the soundtrack of home videos, but it is convenient, easy to use, and remarkably affordable. The 151VR system comes with a pocket-sized receiver and belt clip, plus a choice of the Nady WHT-15 handheld or WLT-15 lavalier microphone transmitter. Both the receiver and microphone transmitters operate on a single 9V alkaline battery, with a transmitter battery life of 16-20 hours. The beauty of the 151VR is that it allows you to place the microphone "where the action is". No longer reliant on the microphone in your camcorder, with the Nady wireless you can record clear, reliable sound as far away as 250 feet. Being able to place the microphone anywhere in the camcorder's field of vision means that your home videos are guaranteed to sound great, much like a professional production. Indoors and outdoors, the 151VR eliminates unwanted ambient noise from your recording, as well as extraneous sounds associated with the operation of your camcorder. The applications of the Nady 151VR wireless are many and varied. Parents can record their child's piano recital from the back of the auditorium and hear every note as it sounds onstage. Lecture presentations, awards ceremonies, etc., can have clear, professional sounding audio without distracting ambient noise from the audience. Anywhere you use your camcorder, you can use your Nady wireless. The 151VR is an invaluable tool for videographers and is engineered to deliver outstanding sound that is indistinguishable from the best hardwired mic you can buy - without the hassle of a cord. Operating on the VHF high band for interference-free performance, the 151 VR is available on 3 different frequencies, allowing more than one system to operate simultaneously in the same location. The 151VR works with all video cameras and camcorders that have an external mic jack or audio input.
