Welcome to the twenty first episode of the Speed Bumps Podcast. I haven't discussed our first topic in a straight forward and searchable manner before. Boom poles can be wired in different ways and each of those configurations offer pros and cons so we're going to start off discussing those. For the second topic I'm going to cover why I would prefer to hire a sound person that knows about camera over a camera person that understands sound.

It's not enough to just point out the flaws of a $60 boom pole without demonstrating that there are better models out there. In this video I check out the LyxPro MPL-20 boom pole and compare it to K-Tek's Mighty Boom KP16CCR and the Ambient QS-5130. Surprisingly the LynPro is better than expected. The knuckles and cable are total garbage but aside from that, the boom itself is relatively quiet once in position. It did bow quite a bit but that wasn't visible to the camera. It's also rather short at only 9 feet 3 inches long but that may be long enough for some people. Join me as we go thru this $60 and the 2 professional booms to see how they compare. If interested in the LyxPro MPL-20: https://geni.us/LyxPro Want the K-Tek KP16CCR? https://geni.us/KP16CCR Sorry, the Ambient QXS-5130 is discontinued.
