What Customers Say About Canon Directional Stereo Mic (DM 50) for Camcorders with the Advanced Access Shoe:

In my opinion this is a necessary addition to the canon HV series. I've used it in extremely noisy situations and the directional audio is incredible. In my opinion, this completes the camera. Buy one, you will not regret it.

I just love it. It does a great job of selectively and clearly capturing what I want to record.

My new Directional Serrio Mic (DM-50) gives me three options, front, side& front & onmidirectional. Canon Directional Stereo Mic (DM 50) for Camcorders with the Advanced Access ShoeMy Canon FX 70 camcorder has an excellent audio recorder but it is limited to omnidirectional recording. Background noise can distract from my desired recording. I find the #2 side & front selection the best for interviewing or focusing on a selected group. Voices are clear & sharp with reduced background noise.

This is a capable microphone that comes with a major caveat. The makes for an absolute audio nightmare. Since the microphone slots directly into the hotshoe of the HV20/30, there's not much in the way of buffer to divorce it from any camera noise. I'm not just talking motor noise: any time you press a button on the camera to toggle settings, anytime you use the manual focus slider, anytime you shake the camera in the slightest.the mic picks up the noise. So - if you plan to plop the camera on a tripod and not touch it whatsoever during filming, this microphone is a fine choice. If you plan to use a tripod but want to do something as simple as zoom in on your subject, be aware that you are likely to end up with some unwelcome clicks and pops when you watch your footage.

Took me a while to figure this out but all of the built in camcorder mics and "general purpose" accessory mics (like this one) have a built in high pass filter which reduces recording of the lower frequency sounds to help remove the mechanical tape and zoom sounds from the recording. Live music recordings will never sound right no matter which of the three setting you use because the low end is cut back on all of them. I finally bought the Rode Stereo Vidmic, which allows switching that filter off when you really want a balanced frequency response, and found that my HV20 is really quite capable of recording excellent music audio. Something that it could not do with the DM50.
