E523/D : Why I gave it 4 Stars

5 years ago

Pros:Great build. All metal body. Optional Battery power (aa x 1). High output and very clear natural sound. My main use is for Foley / ambience and field recording. Tests I've done to date were very satisfactory.The mic could easily work as dialogue in film in my opinion.

Cons:(Not many really) Wind shield is useless, would have liked padded case as other companies supply, Best used on stand or blimp as it is prone to handling noise. -10 or -20 db pad would be nice. I would strongly recommend this stereo mic.
