Comica WS60 UHF Dual Mini Wireless Microphone Combo Full Review

The following product review for the Comica WS60 UHF Dual Mini Wireless Microphone Combo has nothing to do with Fitness or Health but as a YouTuber with a couple of YouTube channels, I have to make sure I not only have good quality video but also good quality audio when I make a YouTube Video for one of my channels.

After all if it sounds like I'm in a wind tunnel or the bat cave and you can not hear clearly what I'm saying then it can be very distracting for you the viewer to understand what I'm trying to share with you!

Perhaps you can also utilize a product like the Comica WS60 UHF Dual Mini Wireless Microphone Combo for your audio and video needs, which could also be for something social media related or even just for your own personal use to get the best quality home video and audio.

For the last couple of years I have been using a lapel mic more and more in my videos and I try to use one whenever possible since the audio is just so much better than the Microphone audio built into the camera. It's not that the camera mics are really all that bad, the problem is that most of the time the camera is simply not close enough to the person speaking so you tend to get a lot of background and room noise which makes the speaking audio sound distant with noticeable ambient noise and echo.

Generally I have been using a wired lapel mic that I record directly into my SmartPhone, which I place in my pocket while recording. I use a different camera to record my video, I then sync the audio to the video in post production on my computer but this requires a bit of audio and video software know how. The advantage to a wireless setup is that you can record directly into the camera if it supports an audio input meaning no more requirements to sycn audio later and no long cord bwteen the audio source and the camera. A wireless setup usually is more compact and versatile. What I like about the Comica WS60 UHF Dual Mini Wireless Microphone Combo is the fact that it comes with two lapel mics that both have their own transmitter so they can be worn independently by two separate people, perfect for conducting interviews or even when you simply need a mic in more than one location.

In this Comica WS60 UHF Dual Mini Wireless Microphone Combo YouTube Video Review I first unbox the Comica WS60 UHF Dual Mini Wireless Microphone Combo and show you what you get inside the box and talk about some of the basic features and specification. I then test it out and record audio so you can hear for yourself what it sounds like. I first test it plugged into my SmartPhone like I normally do and then I pug it into my DJI Osmo Pocket for a second reference test. Please keep in mind I performed my original testing without monitoring the real time audio output so I did not catch that there was some interference from my overhead LED lighting. I was able to change the channels on my Comica WS60 UHF Dual Mini Wireless Microphone Combo and completely remove the background bussing I was getting from the LED lighting in my room.

Popeye's Fall Classic 2019 Follow Up Video

It's been a little over a week now and so I thought it was time to do a follow-up on my Popeye's Fall Classic 2019 results. I even have my professional stage photos to add to the video so make sure to watch the entire video to see all the photos since they are inserted throughout the video.

 

In this Popeye's Fall Classic 2019 Follow Up Video I mainly talk about how I felt I did and if I was happy with the what I presented at the show, what would I like to change for any future shows and if there are even going to be any future shows and what they might be...

In summary I am very happy I decided to attend this years Popeye's Fall Classic, I got pretty much exactly the results I was hoping for which was to take home the Overall Trophy in Open Men's Physique and to place top 5 in Open Men's Classic Physique since I really was not prepared to do Classic Physique at all going into this years Popeye's Fall Classic.

InBody H20N-B Dial Smart Body Composition Scale Unboxing Review

Several years back when I was in Anaheim California attending a TheFitExpo Convention, I visited the InBody Booth and was super impressed by their Body Composition Analysis scales. These where high end machines designed for fitness clubs and Healthier elated business as the machines here several thousands dollars to buy, not for your average home user. All the same I still wanted one but of course was not willing to shell out 5-6 thousand dollars.

That's was until I found out that InBody now has a home unit called the InBody Dial H20N-B available at a fraction of the cost of their professional units, marketed for the home user that wants to have in home Smart Body Composition data available any time any day.

The InBody Dial H20N-B is a bit hard to find for sale right now since they are so new and not even listed in Canada so I had do get mine from Ebay, but they will be available shortly over at Amazon.com and Amazon.ca I will provide links when I have them.

This video is my Unboxing and First impressions of the InBody Dial H20N-B Smart Body Composition Scale. I take it out of the box, have a good look at it, show you the manual that is not in English so not much use to me, and then pair it to my Smart Phone.

My full Testing Review for the InBody Dial H20N-B Smart Body Composition Scale will be out when I have some data that I can share with everyone.
