Nice construction, nice fur... BUT .. mic picks up any and every mechanical movement thru the mic support. If the mic moves at all in its support, you hear it on the audio. Mic support is USELESS. Better to wrap the mic in foam and rubber band it to the camera. Other than that , nice mic. Yup... only 1star because of the noise..

Initially this one was going to be for videos shot on my phone, but it works so well and is so much smaller than the pro+, that I just take this one with me everywhere and it handles a lot of the work.

This Mic is so good! You don't need batteries and it's small and compact. The sound quality is great as well.

This is a good quality mic for its price. The audio quality is really good compared to the stock mic in the Canon M50, but there is still a good amount of hissing. I have adjusted the settings, and even updated the firmware that came out less than a week ago, and the hiss is still there. If you are using a Canon M50, a Canon, or a DSLR, I would choose another mic or you must edit your audio in post production. I have tried several clips where it was successfully done, but sometimes you cant take the hiss away or your audio will severely be distorted and doesnt sound natural.If you are on a budget, arent making serious videos (professional use, special moments, etc), or can chance that you can change the audio in post production, this is a good deal. For some, the only way to remove the hiss from the audio is get a more expensive mic such as the Rode Video Mic Pro or Rode Video Mic Pro Plus.

using it on Osmo+. Would prefer it with the option to not use the included mount

For a pill mic this has proven to be handy and extremely portable. I keep it in my back pack for on the go accessibility.
