Comments about Rode PinMic-Long Wearable Microphone:
I purchased the Pin Mic as a backup to a boomed mic to capture dialogue in a small production (short film), in case our boom operator missed his marks, or during action sequences.PROs:- Good sensitivity, so you will not need to boost your recorder's gain (much) to capture a decent signal.- The mic attaches very firmly to clothing, and doesn't pick-up any movement / rustling noise.- The kit includes 2 capsule heads of different colors to match different clothing (lighter and darker).- The Pin Mic cable is strong but flexible.- The MiCon (connector system) offers a wide range of connectivity options.- Comes in a very sturdy protective case.CONs:- Even with proper placement, the recorded audio might sound a little too warm and bassy (subjective), so you might want to tweak the audio in post.All in all, I plan to buy more of these to lav most of my talent on set - they are reliable, sturdy, and capture very good sound.Definitely recommended!
