Quality


Overall im very pleased with the results


Very happy with the sound quality from the tascam tm2x stereo microphone


Update convient but sound quality is nothing to wrote home about


No matter how fantastic or good the picture quality is audio is what narrates a quality package and buying unknown audio brands...  Read More

Price


Nevertheless tascam is good at balancing good sound quality portability and cost

Packaging/appearance


Therefore i attribute the hiss to the preamp andor phantom power supply inside the d5300 not the microphones themselves


It would have been nice if they had made the hotshoe connector out of metal but this too is plastic

Competitiveness


I use this with a blackmagic pocket camera to substitute the camera s built in mic


I mounted this on my nikon d7100 and recorded the concerts


I intended to use my nikon d5300 for video as well as still shots

    The omnidirectional mics on my canon 70d are compressed and noisy


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    I wanted better sound but wished to avoid outboard audio for casual shoots


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    For serious recordings i use a tascam dr100 mkii with a pair of neumann km184


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    And nope the tm2x doesnt touch the accuracy low noise and sensitivity of that combo


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The tm2x sounds similar to the buildin mics on the dr100 mkii decent stereo imaging but on the bright and thin side


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The main gotcha is mic output is weak requiring plenty of preamp gain


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    The tm2x is cleaner than the 70ds builtin mics but quiet tracks still require use of a noise reduction plugin in post


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    For kicks i tested the tm2x on my tascam dr60d mkii and they were much quieter so the static on my videos are the result of the cameras funky preamps
