Rode PinMic Lapel Microphone Review

The Rode PinMic Lapel Microphone is one of the best lapel microphones on the market.  It is a discreet lapel microphone that provides broadcast-quality audio when close-miked in almost any scenario. This perfect for interviews,  film, television, video, theatre, a house of worship and anywhere where a high-quality microphone needs to be heard but not seen.

The Rode PinMic has a cabled backplate and a removable omnidirectional capsule head, the Rode PinMic is easily mounted onto any clothing or fabric, just like a pin, simply pushing the backplate pins through the back of the fabric and sliding the capsule into place on the front. The lapel microphone is not clearly visible to the camera.

The Rode PinMic is only 9mm deep and 11mm in diameter and is supplied with both a black and an unpainted silver mesh head that can be further camouflaged. The microphone can easily be placed through on any fabric up to 1.5mm thick without any damage to clothing.  The PinMic also includes a wind shield for different environments but that makes it a little bit more visible to the camera.
