I baught this mic for my gopro and was not expecting a great result. It was packaged very well and was taken care of. The product is a bit smaller than it seems compared to the images posted. The quality of this mic is very very good, it cancels out unwanted noises so it enhances video quality. I recomend this product.

Okay so I got this microphone and did not expect much as it is very affordable. When I Unboxed it I was very pleased with how good they secured the package and how they packaged the products inside the box. It has a very nice all body design and was very easy to set-up. There are no instructions needed because it is simply as easy as putting in the battery they provide you with (which I was very happy with) and then plugging in the 3.5 mm audio output cable then turning it on. The audio is so much better than my normal DSLR camera I usually use. For a video review and a audio review please check out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SM8OkorxCXo . Thanks a lot K&F Concept

wow I'm really impressed with this beautiful K&F Concept CM-500.I got this especially for my GoPro hero 4 silver and it really works great it also works for my Nikon d3300.the sounds is just nice it make me smile the first time I hear the audio is just better than other mics I haveI really love the mic it has nice clear professional sound and it weights only 3.5 oz well recommendedthis mic has a replaceable battery which is a cd2032 so it will not feed from our GoPro battery anlike the "rode go mic"or other mics.also better than the polar pro mic for GoPro.i really recommended for GoPro cameras because is hard to find a great mic for those specific cameras. I did have to use a cable adapter for gopro hero 4 but is easy to find that adapter is the only one that gopro hero 4 uses.this winner mic is made of ABS, and the Tube material is Aluminum alloy. the Wire screen material is Metal.the cable is attached to it so is not removable. the battery is very easy to replace.and the mic only has a 3 settings which are off 0db and +10db;the package is very nice as well and only cames with battery manual and mic Pop Filter/Wind Shield.it also has a light indicator.over all this is a must have mic for gopro well recommendedI received this item at a discounted price in exchange for my honest review

Cheaper compared to others. However I find it doesn't work as well as I hoped, it has let me down at a wedding I was filming. I never know if it is working or not as the LED light never lights. Where the panel says twist to turn on, it doesn't. When it does work it works better with my Panasonic lumix than it does with my sony cscs or dslrs.

Very good audio.Does what it says on the package.. I have had no problems with the Ride video micPicks up clear quality recording which sounds so professional when editing.I have used the mic in various locations soon to be used at a few festivals and concerts. So far no complaints.

I have purchased this professional Microphone to use and upscale my videos. I am so happy I did.Inside the box it comes with the microphone,microphone comb, battery,and a manual. It comes in a very nice , professional looking. The microphone it self is full metal so it looks sturdy and I bet it is sturdy box. I loved how inside the box was covered in sponges to protect the microphone. First you need to add the battery. the battery give little power to support the microphone. The + sign has to go towards up ward!! I first struggled that it didn't turn on but when I saw the manual it said the + sign needs to be up. Plug the 3.5mm plug to your DSLR and turn on the microphone. That's it. The microphone has 2 settings. which is +10db or 0db. 10db is for picking up sensitive and getting sound from longer distance. Well now you can use your microphone!One thing I don't like is that you will need to change the battery. The battery life is 50-60 hours which is not bad, but you will never know when it will go out...Overall I recommend this to my friend give 5 star to seller!

Mister G. check out this fake reviewer before paying any attention to his bulshit. This is not the review of a videographer or an audio specialist. There really isnt much reliable info on this mike. I tried It out and it was ok, but slightly quiet. No hiss during the recordings to a GH4. The sound files need a boost in Audition or Audacity, however, this could be the bargain of the century, The Chinese manufacturer seems like they are gearing up for major growth, and lets face it the comparable Rhode stuff is very overpriced for what it offers. For twenty pounds or so you cant go wrong. No silly rubber bands or inacessible battery compartments to deal with.A neat aluminium tube containing the mike and a led to show you have power. Well packaged and good audio specs, what are you waiting for ?

 This is a review of the K&F condenser video microphone. I received a free sample for review.I've got several similar type microphones for my camcorder, but this one is clearly superior in sound quality and build quality compared to the others. The others are all plastic body microphones. This K&F microphone has a metal alloy tube that gives a good feel to this. The microphone is set on rubber mounts for isolation, from the base.This has a very effective Cardioid pattern and it greatly reduces sound from behind and to a lesser degree the sides of the microphone. You can clearly hear this in my video review and demonstration. The on/off switch also has a 0db as well as a +10db (with 200Hz low frequency attenuation) setting to increase the sensitivity for longer range recording.The microphone includes a foam windscreen. Operates on a single CR2032 battery (included.)I think this is an excellent microphone for the money.

Disclaimer: I received this product for free in exchange for my honest & unbiased reviewIf you are shooting video, an external microphone is a must for anyone who wants decent sound – it improves the sound quality. It is bound to - the internal microphone, considering its tiny size, cannot hope to compete with one this big. The difference in sound quality is significant.This microphone comes in a good presentation box (see photo 1). This is important if it is a gift - it makes a difference. Some items come in brown cardboard boxes.Inside everything is stored in cutaway foam (photo 2).Photo 3 shows what you get in the box – the microphone, a cotton foam muffler and a CR2032 battery. The bank note is to give you an idea of the size.The muffler reduces wind noise. It is essential.Photos 4-5 shows it mounted on the hotshoe, with the cable plugged into the camera.Photo 6 shows the rear of the microphone. The end cap unscrews to insert the battery, which is included. To insert the battery, tilt it so that the 12 o’clock position is inserted and then push on the 6 o’clock position. It snaps in place.Tip: The instructions are wrong regarding how to remove the battery (a translation error, I assume) . They say that the ‘metal card’ has to be pushed ‘outwards’ (photo 8). In fact, you push the metal clip (in the 6 o’clock position) DOWN – the clip is on a spring and will move down, releasing the bottom of the battery (photo 9). The battery then levers out. I tell you as you will be cursing if you do not know how to do it and try to follow the instructions.The microphone has three settings – off, 0dB & +10 dB. The latter increases sensitivity (and noise too, naturally, so there is a price to pay) – but it is good to have.If you are not used to this microphone, please always check it is on before filming – if you are used to using the built-in microphone, it is SO easy to film your child’s birthday party or whatever with this new toy and then curse because you forgot to turn it on. Every time I press record, I first check that the microphone is turned on.Confusingly, the red LED on the top by the three-position switch (see photo 10 – the LED (transparent in the photo) is just beyond the +10dB setting) does not stay on when the microphone is on. It only turns on to indicate a low battery. In normal use, when you turn the microphone on that LED blinks for a fraction of a second, and dimly – I thought that it meant my factory-supplied battery was dead on arrival. I tested it – it wasn’t – the LED is designed that way.I carry a spare CR2032 battery, just in case.The manual includes two graphs showing the output response of the microphone (photos 11 & 12). I cannot verify them – all I can say is that the microphone improves the sound quality and I am very happy with it.

This microphone is a great addition to any camera as it increases the audio quality drastically.Included is:MicrophoneWind CoverCR2032 BatteryManualThe microphone attaches to your camera using the hotshoe on the top of mostly all modern cameras. This is a secure and practical way to mount it.The microphone itself is made of metal. This gives it a great feel and a much more durable look.The included wind cover for the microphone is quite useful. It will reduce the amount of wind reaching the microphone, it isn't the best but it is better than nothing.The microphone has a 3.5mm jack on the end. Most cameras have a port directly for this which is ideal for the applicationThe audio quality from this microphone is brilliant. It is far superior to the on camera microphone as it can pick up sound from much further away and with less noise.The top of the microphone has the sliding switch which changes the audio mode from:Off - No Audio Is Transferred To The Camera0db - Audio Is Transferred With No Gain10db - Audio Is Transferred With 10db Of GainThe microphone is also mounted on rubber which reduces the vibration and noises from on the camera which other microphones may pick up.Overall due to the great, metal, build quality of this microphone along with the professional audio capture and quality, this makes it a great purchase for anyone!
