This microphone you need if you want to connect to a Sony camera in an external microphone, and the camera has no separate microphone input jack. On a Sony Alpha 6000, for example. The Deadcat (windshield) must be secured with an elastic band, not really bad, but sees little from cheap. When Tascam TM-2X the better. The microphones can be front both internally and externally pivot to accommodate either the sound from the front, or more space. A low-pass filter switch is available. Despite a soft mounting the microphone is sensitive to touch. It is supplied with a cable, so the microphone can be connected to any camcorder / camera with the right input jack. Therefore I have given this microphone even in preference to the Tascam TM-2X, as this can not be used with the Alpha 6000, Sony-part but already and also with a Panasonic camcorder. The mounting base makes me a little sensitive impression, the contacts on the front, I hope that's all durable enough for frequent use.
