This is a good affordable sterio mic for your DSLR

Reviewed in the United States on January 20, 2015

Verified Purchase

This is a good affordable sterio mic for your DSLR. Its not a shotgun mic like I thought it was. Instead this is a true sterio mic. It will pickup everything around the camera. It has very clear separation from the left and right channels which could improve your videos by adding an extra bit of realism. Its able to record good amounts of sound data that will improve the overall quality of your DSLRs recordings. It will also just about eliminate wind buffeting.

This mic is made 90% out of metal. It mic itself is isolated with rubber from the rest of the unit. The base is made from plastic. I assume this is to prevent the mic from breaking the cameras hotshoe if you were to ever drop your camera.

I gave this mic four stars only because there are better options on the market. However if your just getting into video this mic is very simple to use. It just has one switch to turn the lowcut on and off. Lowcut will help when shooting outdoors.

performs as expected if not better

Reviewed in the United States on August 20, 2013

I had looked at other mics that looked neat but were cheaper, but found they were poor quality, too large /bulky and sent them back. This is for a Nikon D5000 dslr, and gets it's power from the camera battery. It is not a shotgun high directional mic which I did not need, but more an all purpose. I could see it also working with several camcorders as long as they have a 3.5 mic in jack. I just tested it on an old RR engine going right by me and there was no distortion, and a nice full stereo sound. (I had the low cut switch on good due to low rumble of the RR engine--also good for windy areas) I have not tried it in strong wind yet and would probably need an additional wind screen as all mics usually do in such situations.

I especially like the fact it fits in my small camera case. (LowePro Nova 160) as well as an additional lens. It also practically eliminates auto focus noise (coming from the motor and lens moving) that the built in mic will pick up (not noticeable in most active outdoor shots with ambient background noise or ie -the train, traffic, water, etc). You will get some focus motor sounds if the area you are recording is a quiet room etc, I suggest turning off the auto focus if doing a recording of a speaker or anything else auto focus would not be needed)

All in all - a very good performing accessory that does not pretend to be anything else and nicely constructed (quality plastic material). If you are planning to record voices from a distance ie- tv reporter, plays, wedding, then using a wireless lapel mic or hooking up to sound board is suggested.

Very easy to use....

I took this out of the box the day it arrived and put it on my D850 to test it. The sound quality is fantastic and it picks even the smallest sound up. I’ll be using it on a 3 weeks trip to the South Pacific in March of this year where I’ll be making a lot of 4K movies so I might report back after that on how it performed.

That being said, based on the test I did I am already very impressed with the quality of sound that it picks up.

Great little microphone

Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2014

Verified Purchase

I ordered the ME-1 because I wanted an option of not using the built in microphone for videos. I used it on my Coolpix P7700 and D7100. The ME-1 is light, something important to me and very good. I used it a few days ago for the first time for a few video interview clips. It worked as is supposed to and I didn't even know how to use it. I picked it out of the box and went out. It might not be a pro level mic, but I don't do pro level videos either. But I recorded in a windy environment and the wind was muffled by the wind screen very well.

I like the fact that it's light and easy to use, and not cumbersome at all. It's all I needed. The soft case is very convenient too.

I would definitely recommend this product to my friends.

By Far Most Useful Accessory I Ever Bought

Reviewed in the United States on June 22, 2014

Verified Purchase

If you plan to make any kind of movies with your Nikon DSLR, get this gadget. In my honest opinion - it *by far* does a fantastic job as compared to the built-in camera mic.

I use it on my D7100 body. I leave it to you to check compatibility with your particular camera body model.

But if you're sitting on the fence ... get this and you won't be sorry. Mine sat dormant for several months (I take more still photos than movies). But once I took movies - wow, what a difference! Even people who've watched my Nikon movies on YouTube comment on the great sound they're hearing.

Great stereo shotgun mic. Perfect for Youtube.

Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2021

Verified Purchase

I wish it would swivel. To go from front to back you gave to remove it from the hot shoe and reverse it. The sound quality is very good. The switch for flat or low cut helps in the wind as long as it’s not too strong. Very compact with a pouch to store it in.

very sensitive mic

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 17, 2013

Verified Purchase

Not pro quality (not at this price) but very sensitive, i.e. almost as good as my own ears. Performs well outdoors, but beware of noticeable white noise when using the low-cut filter (which, to be fair, you won't really need unless you're recording in a hurricane)

Good range

This is a good quality microphone and suppose it competes with Rode at this price level. It has a good dynamic range and looks very smart atop the Nikon

So far I am very pleased with the results

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 29, 2014

Verified Purchase

Bought as a Christmas present so have not had time to assess it properly. So far I am very pleased with the results. I think it is too expensive considering it was made in China. Just taking indoor family video on my Nikon D5200 it has done a good job. I am not sure about doing an indoor interview where the sound will be critical whether the auto focus will be heard. Will have to wait and see.

Great little bit of kit

I love it, won't take video without it and can't see me wanting to upgrade anytime soon. Super easy to use and set up and makes a big difference to sound quality

Nikon ME-1 microphone

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 4, 2013

Verified Purchase

I bought this microphone for use with my Panasonic Lumix GH3 camera, primarily in order to reduce wind-noise. I chose this over the Hahnel MK-100/MK-200 on the grounds of size and the fact that it does not require its own battery. Wind-noise is reduced dramatically, particularly with the Hahnel DC-100 wind-shield fitted. My ears are too old to comment with any authority on the acoustic accuracy of the microphone but, for my purposes, it fits the bill exactly.
