    Sounds better than the in camera mic, it's what you'd expect from $100 mic.

    I purchased this on a sale and couldn't be happier. I'd prefer if my sony A6000 had a mic jack but this did the trick. I would recommend this to anyone needing a mic for a sony specific camera.

    We were doing a remote project for work, and I needed to get something quick. This was in stock and not outrageous $, so I ordered and picked up. This is not a studio level mic, but it did what I needed it to do and worked seamlessly.

    Video cameras sometimes have trouble picking up sound. This accessory cuts down on such pro by lens and zooms in well.
