Excellent directional mic. It really focuses on the front and not the sides for audio. It could use some bass but that's an easy fix in post.

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.
