Unfortunately, I returned the mic. It wasn't faulty—it was actually an excellent mic. However, if you plan to use a top handle (with a cage) on your camera, think twice. If you're using a briefcase top handle, you won’t be able to mount this mic, as it needs to be attached directly to the camera.Update:I’m giving this 1 star instead of the original 4. As mentioned above, I returned the mic because it didn’t work for my setup. I sent it back on February 9th (it was delivered on the 13th), but I still haven’t received a refund. It was supposed to be refunded by February 19th, but now it’s been pushed to March 3rd. Amazon support (which I’ve already contacted) has been unhelpful.Disappointed by overall support and Sony.Update 2:3rd of March arrived, and reimbursement is once again pushed for now 9th of March.Funnily enough that Sony or seller received microphone long ago (13th of February).If you are thinking to order this mic be aware that if you don't like it you'll be unable to get your money back anytime soon.Shame, really shame Amazon

Out of all the mics I’ve had & used, this is by far the best mic. I can’t believe I went this long without it. Did an all day event with this mic and it did its job. I used it in auto and the audio was crisp.

Es un buen accesorio, muy ligero y fácil de usar. Es importante saber que debes modificar el audio de la cámara para que el micrófono interno deje de grabar audio y todo lo que se grabe sea a través de este micrófono externo, si no, será de mucha menor calidad el audio. La conexión de zapata no se percibe de tan buena calidad y los botones de atrás tampoco. Es útil, pero no de la calidad de otros componentes que fabrica Sony.

I love good audio, and I love on camera mics. With other microphones, you have to play with the gain adjustment in camera, and the gain controls and filters on the mic. The AC kicks on, and you have to readjust everything.This mic has all the bells and whistles, but it's basically plug and play for great audio. If you're recording from indoors to outdoors, the auto setting can be trusted.I save a lot of setup time using this mic. Usually for a mic that advertises different recording modes, there's compromise, but this mic has great quality in every mode. I've used it for vlogging, concerts, talking heads, and more. It's an excellent run and gun solution that can tackle every situation.

Gran calidad de sonido, puedo compararlo con mis otros micrófonos de escopeta para grabación de entrevistas y tomas en run and shoot o rolling; tiene la ventaja de que es inalámbrico lo que permite una configuración nueva en mi cámara haciéndola más portátil. Muy satisfecho con la compra.

Best audio I got out of a mic yet. Not having to worry about cables is also a big plus. The shock mount works flawlessly for me even in heavy wind.As I said though it does drain your batteries a bit faster. I have quite a few spares so not a big deal to me but if you only have 1 battery it won't last a full day of shooting. Im talking the beefier Z batteries not the weak ones on the older cameras.Still an easy 5 stars from me though. It's smaller and more practical and excellent sound.

I made one of the most common mistakes when creating videos: not checking the microphone batteries. I lost my audio, which means you lose your video if you don't have a backup camera or external audio recorder. I love the multidirectional audio recording/capture options of the frontal, 180, and 360 audio collections, if that is how you explain it. Also, the microphone connects directly to your camera, which is a plus; you save some wires and space for other items, primarily if you use a camera cage. The B1M is great, but B10M will also give you super crisp stereo audio.
