Good Mic, get great sound, just beware if you have it on + or - (the only 2 setting this thing has) in some cases having on plus will make your sound levels peak and your screwed.. wish it had a way I could check the levels and volume control.. but nope not even @ that price..

maybe next time, it works as a simple "plug n play" mic much better than built in. haven't tried any other so I can't compare.

Don't buy for GH1 Apr 30, 2010
I'm sure this is a great mic but it DOES NOT WORK with the Lumix GH-1. It's a different size mic plug. So if you have the GH-1, save yourself the trouble of buying returning as I had to. Maybe they should print clearly in the description what cameras is does and doesn't work with. Lumix makes their own external mic that is cheaper and works great.

Great little Mic Mar 14, 2010
Just got to use my new mic for the first time and it works great. beats the onboard mic by far. I still use a boom pole and higher quality shot gun mic for capturing key dialogue.

Great little mic! Feb 26, 2010
I have been using this mic for about a year on video documentaries and am very pleased with it's performance and durability. The only complaint is that I lost the foam windscreen somewhere in Ireland. This thing has great sound.

Phenomenal performance for the size/price Oct 05, 2008
I bought this mic for a documentary project I'm doing - for a small "B" DV camera with a manually adjustable mini input. I'm about to buy a 2nd to replace a much larger pro shotgun mic on a Canon HV-20. The sound doesn't live up to a full sized shotgun mic, but it's sooo much more discreet and the sound for all but situations in which you can get away with a big fuzzy monster.
