About all I can say about this mic is that it's affordable and does an acceptable job when securely mounted to the camera. It's that "securely" part that's the issue. If you try to "run and gun" with it, you must remember to double check that it's making perfect contact with the camera. If comes just a little loose (Which it does virtually any time the camera is jostled), it doesn't function, but still overrides the camera's built-in mic. All you wind up with is static. When I'm hustling trying to get multiple shots from various positions, the mic shakes loose. If I don't remember to push it securely back into place, I have no usable audio.

Fell in love with the amazing quality of the video recorded by the Sony Nex 5n. As I shoot a lot of live music, I looked for a good cheap microphone too improve the audio quality. The internal mics, besides sounding tinny also capture the loud lens' motors when focusing and during stabilization. Disappointment immediately set when looking and the dinky, toyish build quality of the microphone. The screw at the bottom fails to attach it securely to the camera, no matter how much you turn it, or how carefully you insert it. When filming, the mic wobbles and moves, although never fully detaching. Worst of all, there was barely an improvement in the audio quality. Sure, the fastidious whirring motors aren't audible any more, but apart from that, it falls short even of a good mobile phone recording. By releasing this microphone, Sony let down their buyers badly, more so when the cameras intended to be used with (particularly the Nex 5n) features brilliant video quality. Give it a miss, no matter the price. Use an external audio recorder, or even a good mobile phone, and sync them later in your favorite editing program.Read full review

The sound comes in the same with or without the mic. the foam cover helps with the static noise a little though
