Movo VXR3000 Universal Stereo Microphone with Foam and Furry Windscreens and Travel Case - for iPhone and Android Smartphones, Canon EOS Nikon DSLR, and Action Cameras

I recorded music using the Movo VXR3000 on both a Panasonic S5 and Nikon Z5 (Marantz/NHT sound system, fairly loud).On the S5, the Movo sounds excellent with a full sound, nice fat, deep bass, good stereo separation and lively midrange/highs; much better than the built-in S5 mic. The funny thing is, on the Nikon Z5, the Movo sounds worse (bass gone). Apparently, even set to Wide frequency response, the Z5 cuts off bass and kind of messes with the sound a bit while the S5 allows the Movo to record true full range sound.The camera you use has a big impact on how the Movo, or any mic will sound. I tried all combinations of settings on the Z5 but couldn't get the Movo to sound as good as when mounted on the S5. If I had only tested the Movo on the Z5, I would have returned it immediately so it's a good thing I tested on a different camera.My iPhone 12 Mini's mics can kind of match the bass of the Movo/S5 in the same tests, but the overall level is lower, the left/right levels are not quite matched, and it sounds more closed in and dull with less highs than the Movo/S5 combo. (I didn't test the Movo on the iPhone yet).I like the Movo's compact size and the fact that it needs no batteries. It really excels at close range, like a foot or two away from your source. Recordings I made of music on the Movo/S5 sound close to the original source played back on the same sound system. Lastly, the value for money is off the charts and you even get a dead cat wind muff, but the cables are a bit cheap so budget like $10 for some cool coiled ones.

First & foremost it didn't work on my SLR 4k Duluvulu camera, so I hook it up to my wife's Canon XTi DSLR and whallah...! it worked perfectly and the stereo sound was incredible, unfortunately I sent it back because the Duluvulu 4k camera that I bought won't accept stereo mics, only battery operated mono mics... Would have been nice to know that before I bought it...

Unfortunately, this microphone was a total fail for me. At first, I didn't notice but one day I was recording a video on my phone and the app I was using showed where the noise was being picked up from most. The left was barely catching my voice while the right one was showing full audio. I blew into the left mic, the front, side and the back. The audio was dead and I did the same into the right and it picked it up right away.I decided to take the wire screen off the left microphone and discovered that it was completely empty except for a piece of black windscreen foam. What the heck? How disappointing. I literally only bought this mic because it said it had left and right microphones and they send me one with just a right microphone.Movo has disappointed me before, so I can't say I am that surprised but I'll definitely be returning this. That is if I am able to still, I wish I would have figured this out sooner. I suggest buying another mic from really any other company, Movo microphones are very low quality with even worse customer support.

I love how small it is, quite unobtrusive. Nice design and looks like it belongs on my camera. The sound is surprisingly good. (This all was with the mic plugged directly into the camera (Canon T7i) I will be using it with a Tascam DR60 MKII and will update after testing it then) Stereo effect is noticeable in a recording and that was what I was looking for, I like it when the sound on the right belongs with what is on the right, and vice versa. In a very quiet setting there is a low hum, easily compensated for in post production. During an outdoor shoot with normal ambient sound I could not pick out any hiss or hum at all. But indoor with no ambient noise I could hear the hum. Noise from handling the camera is nearly non-existent unless you tap the camera body. Auto focus servo noise is very noticeable however so disable the auto focus and it is fine since the handling of the manual focus is unnoticeable.

Okay I was really stoked to get this in from Amazon today. I did some tests with it and I felt really underwhelmed. I played back the videos shot on my Iphone 12 pro and the audio from the video picked up directly out of the device sounded louder that what came from this mic via playback. I may have noticed a slight difference listening via headphones but needless to say I wasn't impressed. This was kind of disappointing being that I love the design and accessories that came with it.Besides, I recently bought a vlogging kit from Movo/Sevenoak with a built in mic that sounded so superb, it blew my socks off and a couple of months later, I'm still looking for them. Lol. Another thing is I bought a basic wired lapel mic for $5 at Family Dollar (you know their reputation for quality) that sounds louder and more pronounced than this Movo mic.. This leaves me scratching my head. Man I really want a similar or better mic that came with their vlogging kit. I've even attached the kit to my phone to use as just a mic and light on top of a Beastcage rig. Lol. It looks crazy but I've gotten desired results. Same results I was hoping to get from this mic. I will keep this for backup but keep looking for something else as my main on the go mic.

I take video of soccer games from a Sony Handicam CX-455 elevated on a tripod tower. This mic comes with two cords, including one for smartphones and another for cameras that works with my handicam. I think it is called a 3.5" minijack. It's a short cord (about 7-8") but long enough for my purposes. When it's raining, I put a hood over my handicam and need a separate mic outside the hood. This works great, maybe better than the handicam mic. Great sound, stereo, etc. It also comes with a mount that can be used for standard camera mount connections. I easily tweaked it to attach to my servo on top of the tower. Amazing value for the price. Very happy with the purchase.

No espectacular pero funciona muy bien
