  "account": "An audio newbie's review of the GoPro's first wireless microphone reveals it's an excellent option for all types of cameras. The GoPro Wireless Mic system offers multiple connection options including Bluetooth, TRS, and USB-C. The most affordable kit includes just a Transmitter and Bluetooth connection, retailing at approximately $50 / £45 / AU$80 / CA$70. Mid-range kits offer a single mic with a USB receiver for $80 / £73 / AU$125 / CA$110, while the Complete Kit includes two mics, two receivers, two cords, and a charging case for about $160 / £140 / AU$250 / CA$220. The mic boasts a broad frequency range of 20Hz-20kHz, 24-bit audio with TRS or USB receivers, and 16-bit audio with Bluetooth. It operates within a 150m range using TRS or USB, and 100m with Bluetooth, with up to 13 hours of battery life in the TRS receiver. Compatibility extends to various GoPro models and smartphones, as well as mirrorless cameras with USB-C or 3.5mm TRS ports. The mic is compact, lightweight, and can be secured with a clip or magnet, though it lacks splash resistance. Performance-wise, the mic delivers solid sound quality, making it a convenient and reliable choice for recording podcasts and social media videos.",
