Reliable LavalierI'm often working solo on projects doing everything from lighting, filming, sound, interviewing and directing the whole thing. I need professional gear that's easy to use, quick to set up and robust for day to day use. The Sony ECM 44B Lav mic is perfect for these situations. It's an inexpensive solution for those not wanting to pay for a decent radio mic kit and the sound quality is extremely good for it's price point.

Average sensitivityI am using this with a Tascam DR40, admittedly a recorder that doesn't have the best noise floor. Because this mic isn't very sensitive, to get a good level means setting the record level higher than preferable. A bit of post audio cleanup needed on the DR40 and Zoom H4 is required.

Sony ECM44B LavalierThis product is awesome, I use it with a Tascam wave file recorder and it improves the sound quality substantially by assisting with blocking out external noise. The collar clip is great too as you are able to interview people in a more relaxed way without having a mcrophone under their nose whis is often a bit intimidating.
I use this to produce proffessional archival quality oral history recordings with this combination of equipment and as a bonus it is easy to use. Although not a complete dunce with technology I am in my 50's and new things are often a challenge. This is great product, affordable and the service I recieved was very helpful, assisting me to find my way through the many products available until I found the one right for my purposes. Thank you.

Better sound qualityI switched to this from a mike mounted on top of the camera and the sound quality is much, much better. It doesn't include all the ambient noises (birds. planes etc) like the other one and is a lot more targeted. Very pleased with it.
