Good microphone, but did not fit our needs.
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very nice looking Microphone and will certainly be perfect for many with less demanding needs, but did not fit our particular needs. We needed something more professional and more powerful for our podcasts. Returned it to BestBuy with no problems.

Great mic for portble recorders
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This microphone is great for beginners. It is important to consider that you need an external power and almost the only way to get one is through a portable recorder.

Good product.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Maybe it's a little overpriced at plus 20 bucks; I suspect it's a bit more delicate because of the cheapness of the parts than it is delicate because it is a finely tuned instrument. But I've had no problems with it thus far. Working great as another mike for me with audio recording. Good stuff.

Be Careful!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Although this mic has decent sound quality for the price, it may not be picked up on different recording systems (for some strange reason)...

Sony Microphone
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this item before and I wanted another one. I love to do interviews, but hate holding a hand microphone; so this was the best inexpensive option. I strong recommend it for indoors use if you are filming a project.

WORTH THE PRICE
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound capturing is immaculate, it catches every sound especially a sigh from a distance of 3 feet. Even the most gentle sound can be heard on it. I'm actually impressed for the price it's at. It's good for a start!

Great little microphone
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I used this microphone for a Parabolic mic for wildlife listening, while my other mic was out of commission. It worked well, Has a good range to not only record the high chirps of certain animals, but was able to pick up low growls and bull frogs from over 100 yards away.

Needs a preamp
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's a fine mic. It needs a pre-amp which doesn't come with it and they don't elucidate that need. Otherwise, fine mic.

great sound capture quality
||Posted . Owned for 6 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We used this with a digital recorder to capture audio during a video interview. We did not want a wireless mic, so this fed audio flawlessly to the recorder.

Pretty solid microphone
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The only bad thing about this microphone is the fact it doesn't have something to block noise from things like breathing or won't. Other than that really solid.
