This is my second purchase of this microphone. It is a great value for the money. I recommend a separate wind screen if using outdoors in windy conditions.

Quality on a budget

This microphone met my expectations. I mounted it on a boom pole over my talent. The short length is also useful for my camcorder because it stays out of the shot even with wide angle lenses.

Great mic!

Great short little mic, I think, clearer than my Sennheiser ME66/K6 - but I'm not an audio pro. I just like that it doesn't get into my shot.

This performs great for what it is. An on camera mic. It's short so it won't get in the frame and will fit in a camera bag without having to remove it. Good job Audio Technica!

Still amateur movie maker-assistant. However, this mike is darn near what you want to get cinamatic audio. I was really impressed and this product stole the show on our last production. Well, that my opinon,, but I did pay for it, in the last production. LoL. But seriously, its a bang for your buck if not more.
