Cheap yet noisy.

This is a cheap microphone and the noise level makes that fact evident. The capsule is also huge by today's standards. It's like hiding a tube of lipstick on someone's collar. My next purchase from B&H will be a higher quality/more expensive microphone.

Great rock-solid lav at a decent price

We use these for our High School Morning Announcements show, so they get used and abused by the students. Just replaced one that was over 10 years old, so they have a pretty track record with me.

I personally would much rather shoot with a wired lav, it just cuts down the issues with wireless. This is a good entry level pro lav. It's a tad on the big side, but really sounds great.

Ended up using a hand mike as the frequency response and dynamics of the Lav are just flat. Never ended up using it.

This product is considered the best!

I use this lav with my DVX100B and I had to turn the levels all the way up on the camera and then in post production to get a regular level on it. It's a great price for a Shure, but if I were to do it again I would have spent a little extra money on a better mic.

Good, but big

Works perfect, but it is pretty big...much bigger than a traditional clip-on lav

Not For PA use

Reviewed by RJ on B&H Photo Video

They may work for recording but for PA use they are almost unusable! We purchased these in place of our 6 tabletop shure mics but with the mic vol maxed and the output just before feedback my voice is still louder then the output. For reference, our mic levels are on 3.5 and output at 6 of 10 with the desktop shure's and it sounds like WWF announcements so its surely not the amp.. Beware, the sounds is great if your simply recording but for broadcast not a chance.

output too low

Had to return it. Specs looked good, esp no battery dynamic, but very cold mic. With powered PA speaker, had to crank level almost all up, and no headroom before feedback.
