Lectrosonics has announced the availability of new silicone covers for protection of a wide variety of its transmitters, receivers and recorders, including the DCHT digital camera hop, DPR, DPR-A digital plug-on and LT transmitters as well as the DCHR digital portable, IFBR1B multi-frequency IFB and M2R IEM/IFB receivers.
Meanwhile, new silicone covers for the recorders include the MTCR miniature time code and PDR portable digital recorders. They join the HM/HMa plug-on and SSM micro belt-pack transmitter covers already available.
All covers are available in clear silicone, while some models are also available in black, including the DPR, DPR-A, HM/HMa. They’re designed to offer protection from moisture and dust, and the two-part, overlapping design makes them pliable enough for easier installation and removal. Each cover has die-cut holes for antennas and input jacks that suit the individual model.
The clear covers have a raised dome design over LCD screens and buttons to make the indicators easier to view and buttons easier to operate while in the clear casing. The matte black covers are designed instead to be set up beforehand and then become less visible on camera such as in a newscast.
The covers are available for purchase from local retailers now at a list price of $32 (U.S.).
