Non il n'y aps de différence pour le son entre les USA et la France.
Par contre à ce prix-là, il n'y a pas d'alimentation fantôme, et à priori pas de transfos de désymétrisation non plus. Autant dans ce cas fabriquer un raccord XLR-minijack à 10€
Review ecrite sur un site américain:
Pros: You can lock audio from two seperate mics to two seperate tracks.
Cons: No Phantom Power so limited choice of mics. No mic/line switching (Mic Only).
The Bottom Line: It should do more than it does, not really very good value.
Full Review
Designed for use exclusively with the Canon XL1s (though the MA200 is better suited to the XL1s) & the XM2.
It feels fairly cheap considering the cost of it.
I would have much preferred the ability to switch between mic signals (for mics straight into the camera) and line signals (for use with a sound mixer).
As it stands you can only use XLR mics with their own power supply, which are the expensive minority (such as the sennheiser K6 modular system), as most pro mics draw 'phantom' power from the device they are connected to.
It does have the useful ability to have two microphones connected (one dedicated to L one to R) and as both the XL1's & XM2 have independant level control you can adjust each channel to suit. This is useful for the likes of two handed interviews or if you want to get a mix of localised and ambient sound.
The unit can also be used to get a video out signal vian a BNC attatchment, useful for use with field monitors.
The unit is easy to fit and use, it just slips onto the cameras hotshoe and contact is made through the smart accessory hotsoe contacts. Sound quality is good and the flexibility is useful.
However if you spend the same money again you will get a far superior 'beech box' unit, giving a choice of signal type, and a greater choice of (less expensive mics).
