Great affordable mic to improve your audio on your videos. Wasn't expecting much but was pleasantly surprised. Everyone has different opinions but I loved the sound quality and how small and easily it travels. Doesn't take up much room in the bag.

I wanted to shoot video for private use, maybe it'll become famous one day. This mic takes up few space in your carrying bag or backpack, it comes protected with a frame so its safe all the time. Videos record very good audio with it obviously better than standard mic on your hardware, easy to use and blocks wind well.

It's an external microphone for a camera. There is not much to it. It's light, it's portable and it's easy to attach. Just follow the simple instructions to change a setting on your camera and you are ready to go.
It works well (but I don't really have anything to compare it with).
Make sure to register it to get 2 years of warranty.

This mic picked up sound from quite a distance away. When walking with it on, my steps and the sound of the wind really came across in the recording. Excellent product for the right purpose.

I bought this to video my son's first LEAD ROLE in a theatre play. I bought it that day, charged it that day, and used it that day. I now have a camera that I used to record my son's play; I was also to use it to give as a Christmas present without him knowing. (He is 16 yrs old)
