Shure has a tough road ahead justifying their super high price for this product. In this domain, established rivals offer proven products at more reasonable prices
@Skapo4 ай бұрын
There is literally nothing here that would make this worth $500+ when their competitors have more features (and even smaller form factors) for between $150-$300. It doesn't record internally (much less the 32 bit float you get on Rode & DJI mics). It doesn't have lav connectors. My Comica mics are just as small. The sound quality is not better than any of the options above $200. This is a $300+ upcharge for waterproofing.

However, the bluetooth recorded audio sounds miles better than the bluetooth recording of the DJI mic from Tamara's Insta360 X4 video that I just watched. Maybe that can be fixed in a setting somewhere, I'm not sure?

if it had real waterproofing it may have been worth it for some people

My first “real” mic was the Shure Lenshopper so I’ve got a soft spot for the company but I’m not sold on this one. It does sound crunchy as someone else said and it seemed like it was clipping a bit when going straight into the iPhone. It’s coming in at the Pro mic kit price but a mic without an onboard recording option isn’t Pro. DJI Mic 2 is probably going to hold the top spot for awhile. For $179 I picked up the Hollyland Lark M2 full kit and it outdoes the Shure in every aspect with exception to the water resistance.

Audio quality from it is really good Tamara. My question is, is it $500 good?? The same question for the one at half the cost. If I'm being honest, no, it's not. 😎 Also, water resistance for a vlogging lav mic of any brand, style, or cost is not a selling point for me as I rarely vlog in nasty weather. As always, your review is great, but again, if I'm being honest, I often watch your videos because of the superb quality and production you put into making them, such an inspiration for me. 💜

This mic sounds super crunchy in the middle frequencies (I would estimate at around the 2k mark), that would give me (a sound editor) pause, especially at the price point, listen to that wicked crack at 43" on the 'k' in 'keen' for instance.

You're showing just how good Shure has been plugging along with their outstanding products over the years. I worked with Shure studio microphones of various types more than 40 years ago (training in studio techniques when Kate Bush was belting out albums of love) in recording studios. Right up there with Sennheiser and Neumann. And now, as it was then, wayyyy out of my price range. Beautiful cardioid patterns and dynamic specification being the penultimate offering in sound, these Shure microphones are a blessing if you can afford them. Thank you for showing us what can be attained!

Got my boss to buy the Hollyland Lark M2 mics. We all love it. Great for interview shoots and sooo easy to mic them up with the magnets. Great background noise reduction as well. Easy plug and record on iPhones automatically. No app required, but they do have one. Cheaper and does the job well.
@WillNewcomb4 ай бұрын
Virtually every review I've seen on the Movemic has had superb audio, for me exceeding that given by DJI/Rode wireless kits. But it seems the Shure has a fatal flaw. It's a wireless lav, but the windmuff is next to useless with any sort of wind (which you can detect with your outdoor trials despite wind presence being pretty minimal).

Wonder whether direct Bluetooth connection to a phone without the receiver result in a worst audio quality-like with DJI's Mic 2. BTW, Shure sure uses only 16 bit audio when using Bluetooth, not even 24 bit. So, there should be differences in audio Bluetooth vs receiver.

Instamic. onboard recording , 32 bit , waterproof, 199 USD. fits inside motorcycle helmet , magnetic and velcro and action cam attachments. Easy for newbies. Only one mic but for my use on the motorbike its perfect I use it on tutorial videos for work as well. Battery lasts about 12 hours. This shure mic looks a little smaller though which might be even better for inside the helmet but... costly. Suspect it comes down to pro vs prosumer ?
