Azden SMX-30 ステレオ/モノラル切替式ビデオマイク

I was worried the audio would feel hollow, but the mono mode really locks in clear dialogue for interviews. The stereo setting gives a nice sense of space for ambient shots, and the whole thing is light enough that my camera rig doesn't feel unbalanced.

The switch between stereo and mono is a lifesaver for interviews, and the audio clarity surprised me even in a slightly windy park. Definitely worth the upgrade from my camera's built-in mic.

Took this out for a quick shoot and the stereo/mono toggle is so handy when I’m switching between recording dialogue and ambient sound. The audio comes through crisp and clean, no fiddly adjustments needed after setup. It’s become a permanent part of my camera bag.
