    BEST VIDEO MIC OUT THERE

    Sound quality is amazing and the functionalities of the mic are awesome and really versatile for multiple forms of video/film work. I love that it can also record multiple decibles at the same time in case one was too quiet or one was too loud which really changed the game! The new battery pack is also so convinient, with better accessibility and also coming in a pack instead of having to recharge with actual batteries as those die faster and cost more to replenish. Overall, best mic I've tried! Very happy with my purchase!

    Awesome mic!!

    Amazing microphone! I upgraded the next day after purchasing the pro one. I think spending an extra $70ish to this was a perfect choice! I don't have to worry about buying more batteries because this camera comes with rechargeable battery. Also this has more options on how you want your sound

    Worked while it did.

    I really liked it while it was working. Bought it in 2021 stopped working by the end of 2022 though. Not sure if the cord has a shortage or the mic itself was defective. I would use it mostly for a vlog and to pick up nature sounds. Unfortunately It stopped working my after I didn’t enroll in another year of totaltech support. Used it on my Canon M50.

    Sounds fantastic

    I shot some footage of my kid around the house and outside. I haven’t even begun to explore this mic’s capabilities and I’ve already noticed the crisp sound. I’m using this mic on a Canon EOS Rebel SL3 which I also purchased at Best Buy. Just over a grand for the camera and mic. I’ll be shooting short films with this equipment. Thank you Bestbuy!
