    Comments about Sanken COS-11DBP Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone with XLR Connector (Battery or Phantom) (Black):

    I'm very pleased with this lav. No more buzzing from cell phones. It also seems like it would make a very good boundary mic. I work as a legal videographer, so I deal with attorneys that won't turn off their cells and sometimes won't even wear the lav. I hope for this to be a new favorite counter-measure. My only complaints are that the cable is a bit long for my needs and the price is quite high for a lav. (A good quality lav, however.) I am extremely happy with my purchase, and I plan to buy at least a couple more soon. I don't know how durable this lav will be. It seems small and a bit fragile. Time will tell.
