Sennheiser EW-DP 835 SET (R4-9) SET Camera-Mount Digital Wireless Handheld Microphone System (R4-9: 552 to 607 MHz)

The Sennheiser EW-DP 835 SET (R4-9) is a complete, single-channel digital wireless system engineered to provide a professional handheld microphone solution optimized for camera-mount operation, ideal for videographers, broadcasters, and event filmmakers. This set combines the functionality of a traditional handheld wireless microphone with the innovative form factor of a digital plug-on transmitter, operating within the R4-9 frequency band of 552 to 607 MHz. The system centers on a handheld transmitter body that integrates a high-quality MD 835 dynamic microphone capsule, known for its supercardioid polar pattern and tailored vocal response. This entire handheld unit is designed not to connect to a traditional bodypack, but to link wirelessly via its built-in digital transmitter to the included compact portable receiver, delivering pristine 24-bit/48 kHz audio with robust immunity to interference and ultra-low latency.

A key innovation of this system is its design for seamless integration with camera equipment. The handheld transmitter features a standard cold shoe mount built into its base, allowing it to be securely and quickly attached directly to a camera's hot shoe or any cold shoe adapter on a camera cage. This eliminates the need for a separate microphone mount or boom pole, creating a highly mobile and streamlined setup where the microphone is always correctly positioned relative to the camera. This is particularly advantageous for solo operators, journalists, and documentary shooters who need to move quickly and keep their kit minimal. The included portable receiver is equally compact, featuring an OLED display for monitoring and a belt clip, and provides both a 3.5mm output for direct camera connection and a balanced XLR output for professional audio recorders.

Designed for reliability and ease of use in the field, the system features automatic frequency synchronization for one-touch pairing between the handheld transmitter and the receiver. The transmitter is powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery offering extended recording time, and the receiver operates on standard AA batteries. The MD 835 capsule provides excellent feedback rejection and vocal clarity, ensuring intelligible audio even in acoustically challenging environments. By combining the proven sonic performance of a professional handheld microphone with the wireless freedom and camera-mount convenience of the digital plug-on system, the Sennheiser EW-DP 835 SET delivers a powerful, all-in-one solution for capturing high-quality wireless audio directly at the camera, perfect for ENG, live event coverage, and professional content creation.
