Comments about Rode PinMic Wearable Microphone:
The mic works perfectly for me. I am not very experienced when it comes to mounting lavs under clothes or hiding them in general. had some very frustrating moments with some regular lavs and then decided to give the piic a try. and wow, proplem solved. however, you have to live with the fact that the Mic is right in the line of sight. but so far this hasn't been a problem. We used the black cap on dark clothings and it is almost invisible.

Comments about Rode PinMic Wearable Microphone:
For those of you who hate clothing noise and going through all the mounting processes to reduce it, this mic is amazing!
Easy to use, easy to hide in plain sight (depending on garment of course) and absolutely zero clothing noise.
I'm not sure about the availability of extra mesh covers but it would be nice to add about 10 of them and paint them different colors or sew buttons to them.
I fear for the ability of the mic element to pop off of the leads as there is no mechanism that securely locks it in place. It feels like it goes on pretty solid and will likely stay there...but we all know actors are pretty careless and cause many wonderful problems with our gear :)
I definitely see this mic becoming a very useful tool in my kit for getting decently clean audio without taking a lot of time to mount it under actors clothing.
