Better Than Rode For The Price
I'm over the moon with this mic. I broke my expensive Rode lapel mic, which is "broadcast quality", and RRP 150. It was pretty much get another or try something cheaper, but quality is important. Most lapel mics at the price of this Sony get mixed reviews but the reviews for Sony are pretty consistent. I was NOT disappointed. I use it with my Zoom H4N and I've got to say the quality is near that of Rode (Rode is possibly slightly better) BUT FOR THE PRICE, you can't go wrong with this Sony mic. Also, compared to something more expensive, I can happily have a back up or two, and not be in fear of breaking it! Thank you so much Sony :)

Great little stereo microphone.
I bought this to give me better quality and have my digital recorder out of my hands. Very good quality at the price, clear and no ambient sounds interfering with the reception. I am extremely pleased with this mic.

The very best
Used with zoom h1, until now I have used audio technica 3350 and sony cs10. This is absolutely the best. Bought a spare one in case it brakes.

Does NOT work
After an initial test where it seemed to start working I then did two important recordings where it did NOT work. Previous buyer said same thing but unfortunately I gave it benefit of doubt and wasted my money but frustratingly lost an important recording

Useless
Pretty much useless for motovlogging. Once the wind noise rises in the crash helmet the microphone distorts all the sound. Have 2 of these microphones and they both do it. No problem on cheaper microphones

O prdotuo até chegou, porém não pude testar ainda. Pois o mesmo é um P2, o que significa que nem no celular e nem no notebook dá para usar. Tive que comprar um adpatador de p2 para p3. adaptador ainda não chegou. Então caso você tenha uma entrada única para microfone, este produto irá funcionar imediatamente, caso não tenha, terá que já comprar o adaptador. Se fosse p3 não necessitaria do adaptador. Uma pena.

Absolutely awesome sound quality! For the price it's worth every penny. I use it inside my motorcycle helmet and my voice sounds great with it. I liked it so much that I bought a second one to use for my other cameras. I recommend buying a deadcat for the mic though. Works great with Go Pro Hero 4 Black. If you are having any static issues, then try another adapter, 9 out of 10 times it's the adapter you are using.

I got that one earlier than expected and otherwise I use the microphone clipped to my shirt while walking around various projects with a digital voice recorder strapped to my belt. Extremely responsive to my voice and never cuts out or distorts by any noise. Microphone part is permanently attached to clip so it NEVER comes off!Best design ever! No battery so never runs down or has parts that come loose. Recommend this
