Feels solid and comes with attachments

Just wanted to clarify if you need to purchase additional parts to use this rod as another reviewer suggested. Mine arrived yesterday with a 3/8" male end firmly attached to the post and a 1/4" adapter. You can see my mic is screwed into the 3/8" jack. The bar seems very strong and quite long. I think 8ft and folds to about 3ft. I teach kids how to make movies , so time will tell how it will be Wait until I'm very impressed.

Pros
  • Cool product
Cons
  • Low repairability

Overall the build quality seems good for the price. The telescopic mechanism works quite well. Including Velcro straps for attaching the microphone cable. My main issue with this is a small detail that seems tiny but is actually a major annoyance, especially if you don't have the resources to fix it yourself. Mounting adapters 1/4 and 3/8 and a 5/8 inch barrel that screws onto a 3/8 adapter if you have a 5/8 mount. Like all things where the thread goes into the thread, they never unscrew you…

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Communication with seller

Wow. It's a lot better than I expected

I recently got my hands on a Rode Gun Mic and while a pendant mount on my camera will suffice for most projects I do, there are opportunities (e.g. field records, short stories) where the Boom will be really useful. I knew I would probably only shoot a barbell 2-3 times a year, so I didn't want to pay hundreds for a barbell, but I didn't want anything weak or loud either. I found everything that suited my needs for under $100 and I was skeptical when I saw it was under $50. To be honest, the…

  • Holding my fists
