BOYA BY-MM1 Shotgun Video Microphone: Professional On-Camera Compact Recording Mic for DSLR, Camcorder, iPhone & Android Smartphones Review

Its pros: Perhaps not a bad device, though did not deliver it, canceled the order without explaining the reason Some cons: I waited a whole day for delivery, as a result they sent a letter to the post office - the order was canceled, for what reason it is not known, thanks to for this :)

I looked at a bunch of reviews on this microphone, everyone praised it, well, I think, okay, I need to try it, otherwise the sound recorded on the built-in microphone of the camera does not suit me. As a result, it turned out that boya by mm 1 writes sound identically to the camera microphone, there is no difference at all. Although there is a difference boya by mm 1 is noisy. In general, a complete disappointment, although what I expected for 2300. Let's test further, maybe there is some…

Has some pros Best deal for your money. Wind protection micro resembles a Caucasian hat and it's cool. Cords are all included, vibration protection included. The sound recording quality is very good. Cons below: Not for 2k I have the right to arise, but let's say. The sound is written perfectly only at a distance of 1.5-2 meters or closer, keep this in mind. Anything further is already beginning to be imperfect.

Gorgeous! I bought it on Walbres for 990, but the screen is a little more expensive. The store is excellent. I use both a microphone for a PC and a panasonic v770 camera, the sound quality is excellent on installation, you can not even process it, it writes loudly and clearly. I recommend to everyone! And yes, look at the valbres there you can really take it cheaper by 2 times)

Sony 6300. The task was: at an event in a small hall (80Kvm) to get a good sound from the speakers (from a distance of several meters) and remove extraneous noise from the audience. The microphone did not solve this problem. Compared to the omnidirectional built-in camera microphones, the microphone does not provide any directivity. That is, EVERYTHING is well heard: both the speaker and the rustling of the audience.

Value for money could be good but I'm not sure. My laptop doesn't recognize the device and the cable doesn't fit my iPhone 7. The red stand holding the device is plastic, not metal as shown in the photo. The mini base is designed to fit inside the camera. So if you're going to use them with a tablet, you'll have to find your own way of setting them up. I had to go back.

I thought it was a good mic, I heard about it on YouTube reviews. I take the microphone and set it up on my iPhone 7 plus. I ran some tests and the recording was louder WITHOUT the microphone. I've tried it with and without the dead cat and also changed direction. I ran more tests and my phone's internal mic sounds MUCH better. Wait, there's more. I want my money back. AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE.

Was very impressed with the sound quality and the reduction in wind noise. I only bought it to use on my gimbal to have decent sound and avoid extra hardware and it worked surprisingly well. I turned it on on my GH4 and set the camera to high wind reduction and it sounded better than my Rode NT4 with Rode Dead Cat. Sure, it doesn't offer pro-level depth or audio, but you know it's coming at this price point.

Excellent quality microphone for the price. The sound is now much cleaner, and with the dead cat turned on, the wind practically does not bother on the road. However, like many others, I was very disappointed at how poorly designed the suspension was. It seems that this is not so much a material issue as the size of the gap for installing a microphone. If they can only resize the mount, there shouldn't be any problems adjusting and fitting securely. . I'm not sure if I should just get a new one

This is a great mini gun. Works well for my mobile videography with my DJI Osmo Mobile 2. Compare and compare to Rode VideoMicro and absolutely loved it. The lower frequency response works in its favor as you get better low frequencies and reduce higher background noise like cars driving nearby. It also comes with a TRS and TRRS cable so you can use it with your camera or cellphone. The Rode only comes with TRS and the TRRS I needed was fifteen bucks more making it $75 for everything I needed…

I was very disappointed with this purchase. After looking at many reviews I tried to find an alternative to the Rode Video Microphone. I thought I made a good choice. I was well aware of the downsides of this mic, but it wasn't enough that I didn't want to buy it. The selling point for me was the mobile phone cable to connect the microphone. Sometimes a cheaper route is not always promising. The quality, as stated in the reviews, was what you would expect from a budget mic in this range…
