14 years old. Gear and prices may have changed since.
What the thread found
- The Pro X HD wireless transmitter is physically identical to the Switronix Recon Ultra, sharing the same branding on the casing.
- Users report rock solid video transmission quality from the Pro X HD system.
- The actual transmission distance is approximately half of the manufacturer's advertised range of 150 meters.
- The system features antenna sockets that can be replaced, allowing for custom antenna array configurations.
- Removable antenna sockets on handheld monitors present a durability concern if the device is moved around during shooting.
- The system is relatively affordable compared to other wireless video transmission options.
Depends on
- Distance performance claims are from limited field experience, not comprehensive testing.
- Picture quality assessment is subjective feedback from users rather than standardized measurements.
- The stated less than 1 ms delay specification was not independently verified in the discussion.
- No direct comparison with the Camwave system was completed.
