My daughter received the Atr55 today. The package was slightly damaged, but the mic seemed unhurt. from Buy.com Non technical review of the Audio Technica ATR55 Shotgun Microphone by Jules Oille from Amazon.com I bought an ATR-55 a couple of years ago to use with video production at a middle school where I was teaching. It is painfully difficult to use. from Amazon.com Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R5X9NGD6PLGX1 I recently purchased this microphone, hoping to improve the audio picked up by my Canon GL1's built-in microphone. The price was good, the reviews seemed to lean a little more on the positive side, so I decided to bite. I assumed quality of the audio would be better, that it would filter out surrounding noise more efficiently, and that it would make my videos sound more professional. It also may be of note, that I planned on using this mic with a lot of handheld camera work, which you may or may not do. from Amazon.com Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RXD6DV0UT8P3 For the short time I have had this mic it seemed great for close up audio recording. This is a short review for the Audio-Technica ATR55 Condenser Shotgun Microphone. This microphone seems to be great... from Amazon.com I have purchased (4) ATR-55 microphones and I have them placed in an 100+ year old church that has echoes in the Sanctuary. The high gain setting grabs the words of our soft speakers with hyper-cardiod microphone feedback suppression that is a problem solver. from Amazon.com it doesn't apply to this. this little mic is AWESOME. i really think you could do professional stuff w/ this mic. and for only about 45$ its a no brainier. from Amazon.com I bought this mic for the usual home videos including vocal performances by my son. The ATR-55 seems to perform considerably better than the microphone built into my older video camera. Sensitivity is better, clarity is better, and the ATR-55 seems to be more directional. from Amazon.com En cuanto a la entrega del pedido, excelente, sin fallas y en el tiempo indicado. Respecto al Audio Technica ATR-55, el microfono es muy bueno, pero yo lo recomendaria solo para consumidores, es decir, este no es un microfono para profesionales ya que tiene una capadidad menor de alcance. En el modo NORMAL, nos da una calidad similar a la del microfono de la camara; pero en el modo TELE obtenemos un radio mayor de alcance. from Amazon.com The ATR-55 performed flawlessly with greater range and sensitivity than expected. A community group HD video production was improved with the addition of this unit from Amazon.com
