I like it when a company can improve a product for more utility. I have several comic products and am always very impressed. This is a brand II or version 2 handheld microphone. You can connect it to a DSLR, camcorder or mobile phone (as long as you have a 3.5mm input jack). The package includes an adapter/cable to connect to any device. This microphone delivers great sound in such a small form factor. I also love the fact that they provided a soft storage pouch. Feel good knowing your gear is safe. Also, I have OCD with organizing things. lol. Please watch the video for a sample of the audio connected to both my camera and phone. You'll also hear audio without the microphone for reference.
