EXCELLENT Field Microphones

Polsen GPMK-22 GoPro Production Microphone Kit Review

Reviewed on B&H Photo Video

I bought this product to use specifically for a live-stream of a concert band program. However, I did some recording in the field during French Quarter Fest in New Orleans and these mics capture some AMAZING sound. The XY Mic sounded great for an outdoor concert and picked up minimal crowd noise. For the shotgun mic, you don't get as much of that crackle you get when using the built-in GoPro mic when mounting the camera on an instrument. I would give it 5 stars without question, but the windscreen on the XY mic is just a bit too loose and it falls off in medium-speed winds or with a little knock. I lost it during a performance where the GoPro was mounted to an instrument. Definitely a great investment for the audio-conscious GoPro-er! ... More

Overall excellent kit

There are some pros and cons but overall excellent kit. Pros - great audio quality especially from stereo mic, gopro connectors so no need in adapters. Cons: comes with two mics but one mount, so you always have to mount/unmount mics, kinda inconvenient. So-so built quality, very thin cables, cheap plastic. Overall happy with purchase and reasonably price.

Good little mic

I have used the shotgun mic and it is perfect for my application. It mounts alongside my go pro and I have used it hunting mounted on my bow, crossbow and pistol and the sound quality was a wonderful improvement over the camera mic.

Marginal difference in sound from stock GoPro 5 microphone

I was led to believe that this would fit my GoPro 5 but it doesn't. I had to purchase a separate mini USB 5 pin adapter to USB Type-C to plug into the camera. From my recordings, I don't notice much discernible difference between this microphone versus the stock microphone built into the camera. I do like the mounting bracket, but that's really it.

Don't judge a micro by its size

I am a school teacher audiovisual and always had missed a good audio for GoPro. This micro within its price, covering the empty space for Gopro audio. No need professional sound only sound good, crisp for my classes. A small size but with microphones that cover all needs, micro shotgun and micro stereo . Good quality versus price. A direct USB connection without using adapter. I do not see any downside

After pluggin in another gizmo /w/ 2 XLR inputs to mini USB plugging in dual Shure SM57's and the thing completely SUCKED,I opened up these and tried them and they ROCK! For less then $ WAY worth it. They do as good as expensive units.Too soon to think of anything negative to say from mere preliminary tests.

Great addition to GoPro Kit

When these microphones are plugged in to GoPro units, eliminating wind noise is a lot easier; specially when a windsock is used. They still maintain a fairly low profile. Audio quality is still good.

Im mostly a concert photographer and this kit works really well for me for behind the scenes footage. The shotgun mic has really good audio... its not as good as the rode mic but its good enough. Either this is great for the money...

I love my Go Pro Hero 3+ but it has never had the sound quality I wished for when shooting a wide shot. This Microphone allows for me to target the specific area and has produced excellent sound quality.

Easiest way to attach an external mic to a GoPro Silver. Great for recording group videos and/or speaking engagements. Reduces the need for a separate external mic and audio sync up afterwards.

excellent little kit!

I ordered this unit to go on my GoPro for covering a special event. The results were far better than I expected- very clear audio, and easy to set up. About five minutes of review in the little pamphlet User's Guide and I had all I needed to know to make it work. I am impressed!

Good combo at the discounted price.

Good combination mic setup for the money. The stereo mic works great. A little less than impressed with the boom mic - with loud music playing it is almost impossible to make out what was being played.

When you need to use a GoPro for a blog or simply don't want to pack extra cameras to do a selfie interview, these mics work well. For the money, yeah, I'd buy them again if I lost them.

Very pleased.
