I think that's for using the bluetooth port and iPhone as a remote control on 1 or more h4 essential. the WiFi device can be bought as an extra. But yeah, pity it's not android compatible. It's what I use.

You’re welcome

Yep👍

Thanks👍

It has this hold function on the power button which basically disables all button in order to avoid accidental interference with the recorder whilst recording. This function can be enabled when sliding the power button the opposite way(up), if you don’t require it don’t enable it. If for any reason it turns on by itself, the power/hold slider may be defective, thanks.

You're welcome!

Hi, Does the video have its own separate audio?

@ I fixed it! The zoom was recording at the wrong sampling rate

The screen on my version got scratched just by having it a drawer, they’re capable devices but the quality just isn’t there 👍

You may need to try another USB cable or port, thanks.

The most reputable source of information about recorder self noise is on the Avisoft site. They have a huge list of meticulously tested recorders. They list the H4N as -107dBu. The H4essential is measured at -120dBu which is significantly better. I don't have the H4essential but I do have the H1 XLR and that claims -122dBu, which is very slightly better than the H4essential. And as far as I have been able to test, it is in real world use noise free.

thanks

I own both and although the pro has some improvements, they are not groundbreaking or something I could not live without, if you need slightly faster recycling times and slightly better thermals the get the v1 pro but for me the improvements are sort of expensive to be worth it, if you don’t need the flash on top of the camera and use off camera flash more the ad200/200pro is probably better. Ultimately the most important things to consider is what you need from your flash, your stile and budget, thanks.

Hi, sorry for the late reply. So depending on the software version, slave is differently labelled, but in your case Rx is the slave mode, it is also easily recognised by an amber screen, thanks 👍

Hi, from a master flash you cannot change zoom of slaves, you can however when using a transmitter/ controller, thanks.

Hi, usually flashes when positioned vertically automatically adjust their zoom to the widest setting. Some flashes represent that with a number others don’t, so, no it doesn’t really matter so long they do go to a wide setting because that usually allows a good light spread, thanks.

@@florinG Thank you

Hi, I will consider doing that next time thanks

Hi, personally I’d find a way to power it within its requirements.luckily I never personally damaged any mics, even though I have worked with many types over the years, so I cannot say with 100% certainty if they do get damaged or not, but if there’s a risk then why take it? The best piece of advice I can give you is email the manufacturer customer support ( in your case Sennheiser) regarding your query and surely one of their engineers will be happy to help. If you need help adapting 3.5mm TRS to XLR use a Rode XLR plus/pro they have a converter built in, cheers.

No problem👌

If you have it in the holder then you need to twist and push it out, thanks.

Hi, thanks for stopping by. The icon can disappear when when all groups have been selected and the lamp has been turned off for all. To bring it back on, deselect any group by pressing the ok/ confirmation button and it should appear again. When its back on the screen double press it so that it will show two dashes (- -), after that, select the group you want to control and press the lamp button again now it should show a percentage (XX%) using the scroll wheel you can adjust the percentage to whatever value suits your need. Pressing the button will change to prop/ proportional to the output power, pressing once more turns it off again indicated by two dashes. Deselecting the group and pressing the lamp button again makes all dashes disappear, and you're back from the start. Hope this helps, thanks and best of luck.

Hi, do you have a light or you plan to get one ? What sort of scenario/type of photography do you plan to use it for?

Hi, I’m not shure I forgot, I’ll try it and come back to you, thanks.

@@florinG I tried it and it looks like it's the same mode as App. I wish it was bidirectional (change settings from either the Sekonic or the XPro)

Yeah I filmed it with an a7iv 😅 Guess Sony doesn’t like Nikon.

Thanks 👌

Hi, if it’s made for Sony and the camera has a hotshoe then yes it should work, however it’s best you check compatibility with Godox or Sony support because newer cameras can be made incompatible through software or like the case of my zv-e1 it syncs only up to 1/30.

Yes it did struggle slightly I don’t know why, I recorded that with a Sony A7IV. Although it is a decent camera I don’t think I’m going to keep it😄

That's interesting b/c sony is known to have the best autofocus.i have a Panasonic s5ii and I'm very happy with it.

Thanks, I Used the Sonnar T* FE 55mm F1.8 ZA lens.

Thanks👌

Thanks! 👍

You’re welcome 👍

take in mind Lorin

Hi, yes recording audio in camera will make it easier when you edit. If you want to record on the transmitter at the same time however you need to enable that feature because it’s not on as default, cheers.

I guess you have to experiment and see what works best with your particular setup. When I made this video I used a Sony a7iii and that level produced the best result, thanks.👌

​@florinG it worked with volume 60 mic 60 😊
