[1.155 lb] This microphone is dope. My partner and I have been looking for a microphone for our videos we do and this one is cheap but it don't feel cheap. It feels like a professional microphone you know. It sounds alot better than the on camera microphone we had been using. I suggest you get this one if you want to step up your game.

[Lithium-Ion] Love this mic, we tested it with the MKH-416, rear reflection is not as good as the 416 but the sound is fantastic and darn close.

[2 Hours] I recently bought the S-Mic 2 online. I was on the fence between this and the NTG4+. I really like the build quality over the NTG4+. It feels like a tank. I've only used it on one shoot but I've been very happy with how it sounds.

This seemed like it would be a good value since it has the case too you know! The microphone clip is ok, not great. I bought another shock mount for it for like $35. The microphone is pretty nice. Its super directional but like not in a bad way. I have been able to use in indoors without having reverb causing a problem.

Curtis Judd's Youtube video compared this against the NTG4+ and I liked how it sounded vs the RODE. I don't need all those extra features the RODE has because my Zoom F4 already does all that. Plus I plan on using this mostly for sit down interviews anyway. After getting imnoticed it is a pretty sturdy microphone. I wasn't excepting it that, Curtis Judd only talked about the sound quality and it not having a low cut filter.

The hard case is a nice add-on, I don't need it but I can see how some people might like it. I just throw my S-Mic 2 into a pouch on my Zoom audio bag when I transport it. If you do like cases its a nice case. It feels strong, I did stand on it and it could hold a persons weight. I'm pretty happy. I foam is custom cut but I will probably remove the bottom foam and use it to store something else. And while I don't plan to use the hard case, it is a $99 item I don't have for another piece of a gear I would want to store in a hard case.

I didn't want to spend a bunch of money on what will end up getting used once or twice a month. I also like that it will work with all the accessories I already own for my 416. That was also a deciding factor for me, I didn't want to have to buy a softie for a wider diameter microphone.

Would I recommend it to other working professionals? Yea. It sounds pretty good.

[14.4 VDC] I've used this with my Hi-Q smart battery for a few months now, and this has worked like a charm. I paired it with a good power adapter and typically just slot the battery in at the end of the night and use the battery the next morning. I've had no issues and I'm quiet happy with the charger.

[2 Hours] I won this microphone in a contest but I love B&H. I use the S-Mic 2 with my Zoom F4n. Its a simple and easy setup. I like that it works off 48v. I know some people like the option for a AA battery but I have always had those explode and get all crusty on the inside of the microphone. I like the simple plug and play aspect of the S-Mic 2. I should also mention that it actually sounds really good, like I was really shocked at how well it sounded.

[1.155 lb] Upgraded from the Deity D 3 Pro and the S-Mic 2 is one of the best I've heard. Great at sound isolation and has rich tone.

[1.155 lb] This is a great sounding lav with an amazing price that I've recently used on a professional shoot. It works on many voices and has a wider frequency response and maximum spl (20 Hz to 20 kHz, 130dB SPL) than the popular Sanken COS-11D (50-20khz, 127dB SPL).

When micing properly, you will get amazing low mids that will add extra umph to the voice without it being sibilant. Some might find that's not as natural sounding, however, pro tip: add low cut filter on your mixer/recorder or post and it will take away that umph and give you a natural sound. It is also better for a mic to capture more frequencies so you have more to work with.

At this price that will sound amazing (and better than some boom mics) when you pair it with the right system, this is a no brainer. It also has a great size with good water/weatherproofing. Don't let the brand and the price fool you.

[2 Hours] I received this just a few days ago but I really enjoy the sound it's very natural sounding and I think will work well for most voices. It's not bassy or siblent. I did tear the foam cover the first time that I put it on but I chalk that up to being overly excited getting it out. Its got a good weight to it, it's clear that its made of all brass. I wouldn't go swimming with it but the coated PCB mean that it will do well in humid environments as well. Fitted it into a rycote blimp and was very happy with how it fit although I think the durometer of the supports could have been a bit more as it is a little heavier mic. Not the mics fault at all but something to consider when buying shock mounts for this mic. Its 19mm wide and 250mm long and fairly short for a shotgun mic. The Smic-2 also has very good off axis rejection. Overall I'd recommend this mic to the new sound person or someone that wants a bombproof mic to add to their collection.

[Lithium-Ion] Good, low profile charger for smart batteries. Been using it consistently for a few months now and have had no issues.

Works well with any USB charger I’ve paired it with and it’s small enough to always have on hand, so the peace of mind knowing k can charge my batteries off of any smartphone adapter is nice.

Only quibble I have is sometimes the charge lights on the unit don’t correspond with the lights in the battery, but in-plugging and re-plugging fixes it everytime and it works great.

Great purchase considering the price of similar units.

[14.4 VDC] This is a great mike. Almost as good as the Sennheiser MKH416 but at 1/3 the price. A must-have in your inventory. Great for as a travel mic.
