Ho apprezzato molto la funzionalità dell'articolo che corrisponde proprio a quello che volevo ossia che fosse quasi invisibile e che registrasse bene., oltre ad avere un modico prezzo.Grazie e cordiali saluti.

Acheté le 18 Juin 2015. Rendu audio propre, exactement comme je le voulais dans un casque moto (derrière la mousse de joue) connecté à ma caméra Drift Ghost-S.Bien compact, câble assez long mais pas trop, idéal.Je le déplace régulièrement d'un casque à un autre, le câble résiste sans souci aux manipulations.Il marche toujours très bien aujourd'hui, le 15/04/2019 !Pince en métal qualitative si jamais vous voulez l'accrocher sur vous.Un peu plus cher que la moyenne mais la qualité est là alors... je recommande.

I used this with an Olympus WS-823 voice recorder with the intention of transcribing what I said in Dragon Naturally Speaking v12.5 (DNS).I clipped it to my shirt about six inches below my mouth and spoke carefully in a normal voice.With only five minutes training of DNS, my transcription of carefully enunciated dictation was 100% accurate. Taking less care while speaking resulted in lower accuracy rates.The microphone captures the human voice well.I used it in quiet environments for my testing, except for a couple of controlled sessions where I had an audio feed playing in the background, There is no question that this is a sensitive and omni-directional mic, something that should be kept in mind when you are in the field.Why they made the clip of bright metal is beyond my comprehension. I will spend a little time and cover the exposed chrome plated parts with matte black tape. The clip is also extremely smooth and slippery and a pain to open and affix to clothing. Not showstoppers, to be sure, but indicators of sloppy design (in my opinion).Overall, I think the ME15 is a pretty good performer at a reasonable price.Jerry

The lavalier microphone that came with my wireless Audio-Technica Pro 88W wireless microphone system stopped working. A replacement microphone from Audio-Technica (AT829MW) lists here for $44. After some more research for alternatives, I decided to try this Olympus ME-15 microphone for half the price. After some thorough testing, I'm happy to report not only does it work perfectly with the Audio-Technica 88W wireless transmitter, it sounds better and is built better than the Audio-Technica lavalier microphone! The Audio-Technica microphone appears to have a cable that is easily broken and is soldered onto the jack with a removable, screw-on cap like you'd buy at Radio Shack for home projects. The Olympus microphone appears to be all factory molded and the wire seems more flexible and less prone to breaking. Understand that when the wire breaks, it's not obvious. The Audio-Technica microphone looked just fine to the naked eye, but it just stopped working. The wire apparently broke somewhere in the middle. The way this Olympus ME-15 is built, it does not appear to be susceptible to the same kind of failure and its HALF the price!I do wish the alligator clip was black, rather than bright silver. However, I re-used the clip from the Audio-Technica microphone. The clasp is a bit smaller in diameter, but it does hold the microphone just fine, even though it only snaps on about half-way. I also wish this microphone included an external pop filter. Perhaps it is not needed, but I just took the pop filter off my old microphone and it fit on this one like it was meant to be there.Minor quibbles aside, the sound quality is excellent and I could buy two of these for the price of the Audio-Technica replacement (that would probably just fail again.)By having the alligator clip bright silver, it is very obvious when wearing it on camera. That is really my biggest complaint. Granted, the unit was designed to be used by a sound recorder, not a video recorder, but still, why not add more value and flexibility to the product if all it takes is a little paint?
