Olympus ME-51S Stereo Microphone

The Olympus ME-51S Stereo Microphone is a great accessory for enhancing audio quality while using a GoPro or other recording devices. It is compatible with the GoPro Hero2 and Hero3, but not with the original Hero or Hero HD, as they lack a mic jack. The microphone is not recommended for underwater use, as it is not sealed and could potentially harm the recording device if exposed to excessive water. However, it can handle some splashing without being damaged. This microphone is stereo and provides improved sound quality compared to the built-in microphone of the recording device. It is also very sensitive and can make voice commands, such as "Ok Google," more responsive when used with an Android device. It can be used with other devices, such as the Olympus DS-50 digital voice recorder, as long as an adapter is used. Customers have had positive experiences with the Olympus ME-51S Stereo Microphone. Many have noted that it significantly improves the sound quality of their recordings, particularly in environments with wind or loud background noise. One customer mentioned using the microphone to capture the exhaust sound of their car while on the track, and they were impressed with the results. However, there were a few negative reviews stating that the product did not work at all. Additionally, some customers found the microphone to be slightly bulky, which made it challenging to find a discreet placement for it. Overall, the Olympus ME-51S Stereo Microphone is a highly recommended accessory for those looking to improve the audio quality of their recordings. It is especially useful when used with GoPro cameras and can enhance the overall experience of capturing sound in various environments.
