Excellent sound quality!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I use this mic on a DSLR camera to record HD video of my child's music performances. It's made a proverbial night-and-day difference in the sound quality with the video. It's a no-brainer choice for anyone considering a good mic for a camera.

Not Compatible W/ Sony 5000
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was excited about this but it wasn't compatible with my camera.

great quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microphone is perfect for on the go shoots. The mic picks up directional sound pretty well. Just make sure to pack an extra battery because it doesn't have it's own power source so it will mooch off your camera's battery.

Better than your stock camera mic.... lol
