How is it possible that this item is fluctuating from $60 to beyond $100 when the listed suggested price in Sony's page is $75.Please Amazon: In order to improve your services which are already very good, you need to tie down these opportunists and not let them to ask for prices beyond listed.
I got this mike to go with my Kodak zi8 flip-style video camera. The sound quality is quite good. I had to get an extension cord, though, as the cord on this mike was too short to reach to the camera, as I want the camera farther away from my subject. The mike is a bit heavy and wants to fall over once it's attached to someone's blouse, but other than that, I love it.
I bought this mic for a Kodak Zi8 to do interviews. Although it comes with a cord & clip, the microphone itself plugs right into the side of the Zi8 which is really sweet. Mounted on the camera, the microphone swivels so the sound inputs can be separated front and back, making it great for interviews. I highly recommend this mic to go with the Zi8.
Not too impressed with this "stereo" microphone, I am just as happy with the internal mic on the digital camera. dont waste your $$.
Not at all what I expected. Second, it doesn't capture much more audio than the stock Kodak microphone. When playing back recordings, after recording them at maximum volume WITH the microphone, the volume on the TV must be turned to 7/8ths. It DOES BUT it will not stay in position to record properly. Bottom line. I was able to correct that situation with a very small piece of Velcro between the microphone and camera body. First, from the description I thought the microphone would have the ability to be used when plugged directly into the side of the Kodak ZI8 camcorder. When playing back recordings, after recording them at maximum volume WITHOUT the microphone, the volume on the TV must be turned to maximum.
The microphone will now remain stationary while in use and is still removable. This item is NOT designed for the Kodak Zi8. Not a big improvement. It's NOT WORTH THE MONEY.
