I am planning on buying the Sennheiser G3 in the next week or so. B and H offers three of them with different frequency ranges: 516-558 MHz, 566-608 MHz, and 626-668 MHz. I am a wedding videographer. Does it really matter which one I purchase?
 
It matters based on where you are. Wireless mics share their frequency range with a lot of other devices, but mostly with TV stations; and while most of the other devices won't screw with you too much, the TV stations will totally drown you out. :)

Go to http://www.sennheiserusa.com/findFrequency/ and type in your zip code. This will let you know who else is on the air in your neighborhood and help you choose a frequency block.
