Azden SGM-2X - Mic Omni/Supercardióide

Comments about Azden SGM-2X - Omni/Supercardioid Mic:

I purchased this shotgun microphone to use with my HDC-TM900 because I wanted to have an external microphone for my videos. The onboard microphone is good, but for short movies and such, you will need an external microphone. The sgm-2x came with a bad battery that was causing that wouldn't turn let the microphone turn on. It sounds great, and I'm not even sure if I'm using it to its fullest. I don't have much experience in audio, but it seems pretty easy to use this microphone.

I use the SGM-2 X mic for interviews in video production. It's a great mic is you're on a budget and performs very well for interviews. I've used it as an on camera mic but it would probably serve best on a boom pole because it's long and a little heavy for a mounted camera mic. It's VERY directional so it picks up targeted sound very well while leaving everything else in the background.

I use it to shoot short comedy sketches for my website. It's easy to use and very light. The sound is great for the price.

For the price this can't be beat.

An omni and a 15" shotgun (hypercardiod) all in one.

The sound is good, very good when you consider the cost.

I use this with HDSLR setup. Excellent sound quality, even in outdoor setting, indoor concerts, conversations, etc. Very lightweight.

This microphone is great if you need a sturdy sound that doesn't pick up much noise. It's a little on the low side, meaning it picks up low tones, but overall, the sound quality is fantastic.
Plus it comes with extras like a shock mount and wind covers.

I use this mic on camera mostly and it is really good, it has good sound quality and is very easy to use. The only thing that I do not like about the mic is that if you are using the supercardioid mic, it is really long and since it is so long the weight makes it lean down and if you don't get it just right it will get into your wide angle shot.

We put this through interviews behind the main stage of a major concert and with a little tweaking came out with great clear audio in spite of the ambient noise.

Comments about Azden SGM-2X - Omni/Supercardioid Mic:

I do interviews outdoors for my documentaries and I like to record specific animal sounds and ambient sound for my tracks. This mic is exceptional at "zooming" in on the sound or the voice, but it is so sensitive that just moving the camera through the air creates substantial wind noise even with the supplied foam windscreen on. The dual stage mic comes in handy, but, again, is so sensitive that the supplied windscreen is meaningless. Buy this mic and enjoy the reach and flexibility it provides, but if you are on the move or outdoors, get a substantial windscreen.

I'm a student that uses this for low budget productions. It gets the job done. I've used it as a boom and on camera and both work well. 5-15 ft seems to bring pretty good results, any further and you'll start picking up a lot more background noise.

So far I've done to "Run & Gun" shoots where there just wasn't time to properly set up with a lapel mic on the people. This shotgun mic was able to pull the sound I wanted and reject the off sounds I didn't want. It turned out better than I expected.

It give me great audio, works outdoors without problems, and is easy to use. What more could I want?

I was surprised how well this Mic preforms with my Canon XHA1s. For the cost of the Mic it has great sound quality. Would recommend to amateurs.

Comments about Azden SGM-2X - Omni/Supercardioid Mic:

While it's audio can be a tad dark, (easily brightened with basic EQ) the sound is remarkably present, clean and free of noise or distortion. The short barrel offers a fairly large, wide pattern with good pick-up. The long barrel has a close tight pattern great for individual interviews.

This is so nice product, it works with Canon HV30 properly, but when you attached it looks fishhook :)

Really great external microphone for the Camcorder. Have used others much more expensive and found this will hold it's own when it comes to sound quality. Also with one microphone actually being two is an even better feature.
