The Samson Concert 88 Camera Lavalier (F-band 606–630 MHz) is a UHF on-camera wireless system designed for interviews, ENG, and content creation. The kit combines the CR88V shoe-mounted receiver — featuring true diversity , 16 selectable channels , and IR Set —with the CB88 bodypack and omnidirectional LM10 lavalier microphone . It offers a line-of-sight range of approximately 90–91 m and offers interference protection via tone-key , auto-mute , and selectable squelch (3 positions).

The CR88V provides up to 12 hours of use with a removable Li-ion battery ( 2 rotation batteries and an external USB charger are included in the package). It features a 3.5mm TRS main output with level control , plus a 3.5mm headphone output with independent volume for direct on-camera monitoring. The CB88 transmitter operates on two AA batteries for up to 8 hours , and features adjustable gain , silent mute , and a mini-XLR/TA3 connector for the LM10 . 3.5mm–3.5mm and 3.5mm–XLR cables, a cold shoe adapter , and a strap clip are included, making it easy to mount on DSLR/mirrorless cameras or camcorders.
