    The only downside it how long the cord is. It’s always getting tangled and in the way. However the quality of audio great. It still picks up background noise

    Use this in a controlled videoing setting to improve quality of audio. Works great and the cord is very long.

    Picked this up when the microphone that came with my wireless gear developed a short while we were on our way to a shoot. Sound quality is excellent. No complaints afrter a few weeks of use.

    The mike performs as advertised. Getting the small battery positioned correctly during initial setup was a little tricky. Otherwise, it is easy to use and sounds good.

    I bought a rode condenser microphone at around the same price point for videos, and this lapel Mic is a far better choice. Also it works with phones, cameras, go-pro, etc.

    The product is fine. My problem is with Best Buy & Fed Ex. I paid an extra $9.98 to have it next day (Saturday). I needed it for work Tuesday 8 am. It arrived at FedEx at 5:01 am, loaded onto truck for delivery at 8:00 am. They now claim I can't get it until Tuesday end of day!! We had 4 inches of snow and they are claiming weather problems. But, the FedEx truck stopped at the stop sign at the top of my driveway Saturday at 4:10. Either Best Buy or FedEx needs to reimburse my credit card for the $9.98. I will not purchase from Best Buy again and I will not allow packages to be sent using FedEX. And of course, customer service can't help me.

    I got the Insignia™ - Omnidirectional Lapel Microphone for use with my DSLR, and the sound is great. Make sure you turn off the battery when you're not using it.

    I bought this for my daughter that was using the onboard mic of a Sony video camera. The quality jumped from sounding like a home movie to a professional news cast. Get one.

    Needed a wired mic for my AX-33 for interviews. It has a cable long enough to plug into the camera even if the subject is 8-10 feet away. Perfect for my studio.
