SennheiserMKE 2 (Black EW) Omnidirectional Clip-On Lavalier Microphone for Clear and Consistent Audio Recording in Any Environment - Black (9831)

Perfect

Before considering this microphone, please note that unlike the Rode RØDELink LAV (or similar), the screw securing ring in the connector is NOT detachable. This means that if the input plug you wish to use does not have a locking screw thread, then this microphone WON'T work. The screw will prevent the plug from complete connection on a mic/input jack, where a screw thread is not present. It is NOT meant to work with camera's and cellphones, at least without using some kind of adaptor.The screw ring is designed to lock the lavalier microphone connection to the transmitter - so the talent cannot inadvertently disconnect the microphone.If you wish to use this with a XLR input, you will need something like the Rode VXLR+ connector to make the connection.For interviews and documentary use, this microphone is perfect for the job. Sennheiser sells a slightly better mic for this purpose if you are looking for broadcast quality, but for most of us who aren't looking for broadcast quality, this will fit the bill.This is the same microphone supplied with many Sennheiser wireless microphone kits including the AVX and G3/G4.

I bought this Mic as a back up to those that come with the EWG3 and G4...in comparison the sound is very poor..so I am now going to return the Mic for a refund...I am not sure if I have a dud Mic..or this is the sound to expect from all of the ME 4 Professional Cardioid Condenser Lavalier mics

Bought two of these to replace my older ones that were giving audio issues. these had lasted 5 years, so can't complain but out of the two new ones bought, one is now not working, Mmm! Looking to see if I'm still in warranty to replace. The other is fine.

This mic CANNOT be used for CANNON 80D camera because this banding ring interrupts connection with the hole. Adaptor of mic doesn't go deep enough as this ring interrupt, which doesn't allow me to record right voice. As a result, I have to buy another mic without using this one. Literally I wasted 130£ without any value. Very poor design.
