Digital camera reviews of Olympus ME-52W Noise Canceling Microphone
Digital camera Review: Mono sound, but good quality
Summary: 4 Stars
For how cheap it was, was a good microphone. The noise cancellation NOT works, but at least he tries.Digital camera Review: THANKS!!
Summary: 2 Stars
I ordered this product for the Kodack Zi8 camcorder to "improve" the poor mic quality and hoped this would do it but sadly I must say IT DIDN'T. I adjusted and tweeked it but nothing helped, the mic in the camera was better than this added one. This mic might work well with another type of recording machine but not this camcorder so I don't recommened it for the Kodak Zi8.Digital camera Review: Not a Stereo Mic
Summary: 3 Stars
Be careful. This is not a stereo microphone. During playback, sound will only be produced from one channel in certain applications. If you have a device that reproduces a stereo sound, you might consider a stereo microphone.Digital camera Review: Not bad, it works
Summary: 4 Stars
It works just fine. It's a little large. For example, larger than the Olympus earphone mic used for recording phone calls (which works great by the way), but it could still be concealed if need be behind a tie, shirt, or whatever. Sometimes, it's easier just to place the recorder in a blazer or shirt pocket, but you get the crunch of clothing as you move while recording. Otherwise, if you're stationary when talking and recording, the mic would probably be unnecessary. I can't really say it reduces back ground noice all that much, but I haven't tested it under the worst conditions yet.Digital camera Review: Not great for what I bought it for

I bought this to replace the crappy Garmin Mic for use with my Bluetooth GPS. I figured that this was supposed to be a decent quality mic, and with the added noise cancelling capability, it should work well in the car. Oh well. Turns out, a cheap computer mic I had lying around the house worked better. I first noticed it wasn't living up to par when a few of my callers were telling me they couldn't hear or understand me, so I did a direct comparison switching it back and forth with the computer mic and there was a clear winner. The computer mic. So back this goes. I was told it made me sound under water, and the noise cancelling was negligible
