Very Nice ND Filter for 58mm Thread-Size Lenses
I have been learning more about photography and as time has permitted I have been improving my skill as an amateur photographer. I have worked with other types of filters, in particular CPL and FL-D filters, but before now I have never worked with ND filters. I have been able to achieve good results with it and so far I am pleased with this filter though I know I have more to learn about it.A neutral-density filter is used to reduce light reaching the aperture without fiddling too much with the colors. This allows one to get creative with shutter speeds. This particular filter is adjustable and turns on the lens body face, allowing the photographer to increase or decrease the amount of filtering done. At the lowest setting the filter does very little filtering; when turned up to the maximum filtering level very little light gets through and a moire pattern appears so I do not recommend turning up the filter to this level.To get a feel for how well this filter works I took my camera outside as a big thunderstorm approached and took some pictures of one of the cloud formations. I selected two pictures from that set, one where I did not use the filter and one where I did use it on about 1/4 strength. Although the filter evenly reduced light levels, the color contrast in the filtered image is much more pronounced and obvious.The most common use for this kind of filter is to reduce the light levels, then take an extended exposure for a scene with motion, such as a waterfall.This is a very nice filter and I could not be happier with it. It is very easy to use and it really works well.Disclaimer: I was provided a sample of this product in exchange for a fair, honest and thorough review. Even though I received this product at no cost I have rated and reviewed this product without bias, based solely on my experience with it.

Good microphone for an DSLR
I got this mic couple of days ago, so far I'm pretty impressed. One of the issues I had with my SLR built-in microphone, every time I would focus you would hear the motor in the recording, extremely annoying. This microphone completely solve that issue, and it sounds great.

For me, it is very important to charge the microphone with a power bank. It is possible!I definitely recommend this microphone to everybody. Must have the device!Charges very fast from the power bank and hold for more than 10 hours of usage.

Durability, clarity, range super awesome

I really liked the feel and Construction of this microphone set up. Clarity at its finest. Range was amazing, this system is built like a $600 model minus the big name, but every company starts somewhere and this microphone has it all.

Must have for budget action cam
I've had this for 2 years now, It is excelent. This is my to go to brand for an action cam. The only downfall is the microphone, It sounds a little muffled. Besides the microphone its perfect and for the price very suprising. Its upgrade time for me and will be sticking with this brand

Works well with one minor omission
This worked well -- quick and easy plug-and-play on my new PC. I use it for both output (to a soundbar speaker) and for recording web tutorials and both functions work properly. The only downside is that the microphone properly do not support the extra "gain" setting (sometimes referred to as "microphone boost"). in the properties window in Windows 10. My PC's built-in headphone/microphone jack does support it, but I don't use that jack for other reasons. I am able to record my voice at reasonable level with a standard headset microphone, but I like the option of having the "boost" setting in Windows, and buyers should be aware that it's missing if you use this adapter for recording.

Very good to record local sound
Very good to record local sound. The sound it produces is a bit tinny, but for the price you can’t beat it. ***Update*** WOW! PoP voice’s customer service is on point. After my original review, they reached out concerned that I was not completely satisfied and offered to send me another version of this microphone. I accepted hesitantly, because who does that?! Anyway, I’m happy to report that the service was incredible, and the new microphone is way better at capturing audio. In the same environment, when comparing the original microphone to the new, the new microphone is much cleaner of a recording. I’ve used it a few times for making training videos and am very satisfied with the results.

It works very well.
It is a very nice microphone. I am using it with a computer so the adapter was needed. I was not strong enough to plug the microphone into the adapter. I had to use a vise to to provide enough force to get the plug fully inserted.Once that was done it works fine. I use it for Zoom meetings on my desktop computer.
