      Comments about Hosa Technology Mini Stereo Male to 3-pin XLR Female Angled Cable - 1 ft:

      Works great for on camera mics when you have no XLR jacks. The only con is that like all cables like this it seems that the connection of the cable to the XLR plug is going to easily fail after about a year of use.

        I use this cable to patch into a mic headset with a xlr male connection into a portable recorder with a mini female 3.5mm conection to record in stereo and it works perfect.

              Use to connect sennheiser boom mic to canon 5d mark II. The 1ft cable was too short I had to order 2ft instead which works great.

                  I'm using this product to connect my XLR shotgun mic to my Sony FX1 HD Cam. Product allows me to get good sound from my XLR mic into the mini phone in on my FX1. Sounds quality is good.

                  Used it for a camera mic. Nice and short, does the job perfectly. Couldn't expect anything more.

                  Good quality like expected.

                    I use Mini DV camcorders in an education setting for recording students doing interviews with people for our school newscasts, and this cable allows us now to record high quality audio in stereo (both Left and Right channels), through the mini stereo jack in the camcorder.

                      It is a cable. It works like a cable: 100% on or 100% off. It fits my camera and attaches to the mic.

                      Great.

                      I can also use it with other studio equipment.

                        I needed a cable that would couple my DSLR HD "video" camera to a shotgun mike and an AGC tamer...yet fit in the small confines of my DSLR rig. Well, this Mini Stereo Male to 3-pin XLR Female Angled Cable did the job... AND I got it overnight. It was the perfect size (1 foot) and the angled plug fit neatly between the rig frame and camera body.

                          I use this converter cable to capture audio from our Canon 7D camera using XLR cables. This allows us to use our boom mics and other XLR capable microphones as opposed to the on camera microphone. If you don't need a long converter cable I would highly recommend this cable.

                              I used this to replace an adapter cable that was much too long. This has the perfect length from my azden shotgun mic to the 1/8 input, though sometimes the 1/8 end can get caught on the tape door and get pulled out when you swapped tapes.

                              If you need to add a better mic to your DSLR, (who doesn't?) then this is probably what you need to purchase. It is useful, especially for a shotgun or something like the dynamic handheld EV RE50B. Remember, DSLRs don't have Phantom power! So either use dynamic, or self powered mics (like the Rode or AT897), or use a field mixer, like the Mixpre.

                                any person who buys a camera amateur or non-professional, you should buy this product and immediately facilitate the connection of higher quality microphones, besides giving more conpativilidad in connection to external audio equipment, I think it is the obligation to buy for the amateur and professionals who want to be prepared for any occasion

                                  This is the 4th, I kid you not 4th, 1/8" mini jack to female XLR I've bought. This is finally one that works. I shoot on a Canon HVX20 (yes the discontinued one) and the mini jack finally connects well with my camera. Amazing it took some companies this long to finally put a right angle bend in the design head. Since I can't afford any pro cameras with XLR built in this little device is perfect for connecting mics. I also recommend never recording with the on-board microphone. By using this product you can add some real professionalism to your videos. Hope this review helps.
