"The challenge was to design a camera system which fitted into the tank bag of my BMW GS1200 Adventure motorcycle," von Planta explains. "I chose a Sony V1 camera and with some Velcro I managed to attach two evolution receivers to it. And then with a splitter cable I connected both receivers into audio channel 2, which was set on automatic level."
"I was very pleased with the performance of the Sennheiser evolution radio microphones," continues von Planta. "They're not only small and relatively cheap but also very robust and reliable. They were exposed to extreme heat, sometimes rain, endured many falls and went through a lot of dust but never failed me. Amazing. It's also very convenient that these mics run with normal AA batteries. You can always find them anywhere in the world. Even in deepest Africa."
