    It looks nice on my camera, but do you have to be very gentle with it since it’s tiny and fragile. So if you’re hard-handed, just keep that in mind.

    Bought open box on line. The wind noise did go away with this Mic, which is what I wanted. But the upper portion shakes, not sure if it suppose to be like that.

    This is a pretty good mic for beginners but pros should probably stay away. The main issue with this mic is that you cant change any of its settings when using it in digital mode.

    Sound quality just wasn't as good as some alternatives but the compact design is the best in the market. Great wind screening but not that good of a directional mic.
