5 out of 5 stars Clip on mic   September 1, 2008
T. Castle (Atlanta, Georgia)
For an entry level price this mic can't be beat. This is great for someone who is starting a podcast and has a limited budget. Actually that is what I bought it for. The sound is good and the price is great.


5 out of 5 stars Nice little Mic...   August 29, 2008
Floyd Goodrich (Alta Loma, CA USA)
I bought this with a Olympus VN-3100PC digital voice recorder and it works great and the voice recordings are fine. It's nice and small and easily clips onto your shirt. The wire length is just about right for most situations. I would recommend this to my friends without misgivings.


4 out of 5 stars Good Microphone   August 27, 2008
Senthil Nath O.S. (Tustin,CA,USA)
The microphone is ideal for Olympus voice recorder. This Microphone enhances the recording quality of the voice recorders.


1 out of 5 stars You get what you pay for...   August 18, 2008

This product is okay. I bought it to use with the Olympus Digital voice recorder to use with video shoots. Our camera doesn't have a way to attach an external or clip mic so this was a cheap alternative. Unfortunately, the recorded sound was very distorted and ended up not being able to use them at all.

But, the voice recorder is a great product so I will just research and find a more costly, better quality microphone to go with it instead. If you are just going to use this mic for personal use not to be published, it is great and cheap. But the quality of the recorded sound with the mic is so poor that it is not worth using for any video and/or sound production.



4 out of 5 stars I think its OK   July 19, 2008
JET (Seattle, WA USA)
The price is reasonable.
I did not get a good recording where I initially wanted to do it, such as in class or in a piano practice room, but it's probably because of my fault, since in class I couldn't place the microphone right in front of the instructor. Also, the practice room is small so that sound reflects too much. In addition, the rocorder I use is Olympus VN-2100, which might not be a perfect recorder.
Still, I can't find a good digital voice recorder with a microphone that records better than my old SONY Mini-Disk rocorder/player with no external microphone. WHY....?
