Hama Tie-Clip Mic. (Part 2)
Let me expand on my comments on the microphone clip. The material of the clip is brittle. You either balance the microphone in the clip and it will fall out or you press the mic in and the clip breaks. When the clip breaks you glue the mic in (isn't super glue good stuff?). The mic itself is very good. Pity about the clip.

Hama LM-09 Tie-clip Microphone
Very sensitive, versatile mic. Tie clip is rubbish, very brittle, have to glue mic to clip.

Small microphone, cumbersome on-off switch
For some reason this microphone comes with an enormous black box halfway up the cable that is 20 times the size of the microphone and very heavy. The box houses an on-off switch that is tiny by comparison, so why the box needs to be so big is beyond me. The box also accepts the battery (yes, this microphone requires a small battery - 1 supplied, but when it runs out you know you'll throw the thing away).
I bought it to be a tiny portable microphone for VOIP calls when I'm abroad - but the big clunky box and battery mean I'm still looking for a decent mini microphone.

An ok microphone for the price.
This microphone is pretty good for the price you pay for it. As stated in a few previous reviews the build quility isn't brilliant (I'd go as far to say they use denser plastics in the pacaging than the mic its self) but it's not totally rubish.
- The clip is quite brittle and sensitive but it hasn't broken for me yet. The mic can sometimes pop out of the clip.
- The on and off switch has been pretty good for me, no issues with it thus far.
- Wind cover does also pop off from time to time but a very small amount of super glue will do the trick.
So for general recording purposes like V-logging or Skype (and other VOIP software) this mic is pretty good. Just don't forget to unclip it and walk out the room!
