Great Value Compact Shotgun Microphone
Packing & PresentationSo when u order this item you will receive a brown cardboard box but don't fear that's just for extra protection as the actual K&F mic box is inside anyways after removing the actual box from the cardboard box you will find a really nice layed out compact and sturdy box with the mics image on the front and on the back you have some diagrams of the recording pattern and specifications. As you remove the lid from the box you have a nice piece of foam covering all the products some manuals the microphone itself a windshield foam and a cr2032 battery all very nicely laid out in the well organised box.What I LikeThe packing and presentation is a 10 out of 10 for me.The fact the you get the windshield foam and the battery included which means you can start using this right out the box.The build quality of the microphone is great and is constructed of metal which is nice.You can adjust the mic from off to on at 0db to +10db which is great if your at some distance.It's not very large just around 6 inch in length.Shock proof design to reduce mechanical noise of camera.The cardioid patterned recording which means it will pick up sounds directly in front and pick up minimum noise from around so you will always sound more clearer than the background.Sound quality is really quite good as it picks up less noise while recording.Easy to install and remove the mic on a Digital SLR and most mirrorless cameras.What I Don't LikeThe biggest only thing for me was the part of the stand which clips onto the hotshoe on the camera which is made of plastic and gonna be honest not the best quality you can find.My overall ThoughtsThis is a great microphone for cameras and has great recording quality. Now the plastic mount that you secure on the camera isn't the greatest quality i say again but actually it is designed in that way to reduce shock and pick up of mechanical noises from the camera but overall this does have great audio and recording capabilities and well worth the money.Well that was my review on this k&f concept shotgun style microphone if you guys liked this review and found it helpful the don't forget to leave a like.
