If the camera is mounted to the motobike and I walk away from it, how far from the camera will the mic pick up voice?

Thanks for the info. What does sound attenuation mean and do? Also, are there any shotgun mics that will fit the Canon mount that are of excellent quality? Shotguns if I understand it will only get sound toward the front and center of the camera.

No not really, unless you sat about 5 feet away, maybe. It is just a small camera, really good qaulity, and good mic. Sorry hope it helps.

As said, it depends on the distance, but if you can hear it yourself, the mic will pick it up. You may want to increase the sensitivity to +20db, though. In any case set your camcorder's mic level as low as possible, or you will get a lot of noise. This is in general a good idea from my experience (I am using a Sony CX730)

The issue is probably on your phone itself or you have the mic positioned too far away from you. It needs to be within 3 feet. Mine is probably a little over 2 feet away from my mouth and as long as the volume on my phone is turned all the way up I have never had any issues being heard.

I don't think you will have any problems with the camera view through your motorcycle windshield. I have my camera mounted in my car using the visor mount clip. The camera is mounted on the far left side corner of the driver side visor and is about 8" away from the windshield. My camera can still see the full front of my car and a little more of the sides. The wide angle lens is really good fro this camera.

I would say no. No shotgun mic is going to do a great job at that distance. It really needs to be a couple of feet away to work well. I would suggest using a lavaliere mic.

I use the SMH10 which uses similar ear speakers and mic. My bike is a softail standard with windshield. A lot of wind noise is more the issue then the loud pipes. My best results are obtained with a helmet that has a face shield. With that setup all functions were significantly better then usable. With the face shield up on the helmet then wind noise became the issue at hwy speeds.

I have the camera mounted outside (weather protected) and connected to a computer that uses a good quality surround speaker system with EQ control for fine audio adjustment. Audio from the camera is reasonably good over an acceptable frequency range. The omni-directional mic is quite sensitive and picks up sounds from more than 150 ft away (as you would want from a Security cam). Conversations at that distance are very intelligible as long as the ambient background noise is not extreme.

This unit will not interfer with your vision nor will it impair your audio. The instructions that come with it show you how to place the mic near the corner of your mouth (approx 6 inches out).

You will need rack ears to rack mount and batteries last a good while! Range is about 150 feet! It was one of my favorite mics

The audio quality begins to drop about 15 feet away. The actual device stops being constantly-connected after approximately 50 feet. The device will disconnect between 60 and 75 feet away.

The microphone is attached to the back of the stereo via a long cable - about 6' or so if I remember correctly. You'll need to route the mic to a good spot and mount it there. I put mine on the windshield support where the plastic meets the cloth headliner. I was able to hide the cable in the door seal and then run it along the underside of the console over the pedals to the back of the stereo. That makes it sound like a lot more work than it actually was. I'll try to post some pictures later if I have time. I haven't had any problems with voice quality. I used a Belkin Bluetooth adapter (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004CLYJ2I/ref=wms_ohs_product?ie=UTF8&psc=1) for about a year prior to this and my wife constantly complained about the voice quality when I called her using it. She hasn't had a single complaint about the call quality with the JVC unit yet.

The phone will ring, but at that point I think you want to pick it up and answer. There is no MIC on the Yamaha

If you shut off the mic and keep the volume down, you should be ok. It's a Nice pickup!

Mine records audio from the camera. It doesn't hear you as much on the bike though.
