Reviewed by Tony on B&H Photo Video

I waited a year to write this review. I wanted to see how it would hold up and it has done well. The sound is excellent for the price. Actually it sounds better than some of my mics costing 2-3 times as much. It's a good purchase at a fair price. The only bad review was from a novice...says it all.

Good Sound Quality

Works very well and has good quality sound. Was surprised at how small it was, but that's not a bad thing. As a side note it is omni-directional so in a room with any echo you will pick some of that up.

A great lav mic

Great product, used for theatrical productions. Cord is long enough to provide good flexibility. Quality is that which I'd expect from a much more expensive package. If not cared for,

I use this lavalier for interviews in place of the rode on a boom that I used to use for this kind of stuff. Great clean sound and easy enough to conceal. I won't go back.

it is small, it doesn't think that much room on a person visually. It also plugs straight into the camera or mixer, no need for xlr cable. And the sound quality is great.

Works very well however over time shorts in the wire near the connection to the receiver develop. Reinforce rubber could solve the problem.
