This pistol grip is great- it allows you to feed wire through it for ease of use, and hold the microphone snuggly whilst simultaneously minimising shock, therefore sustain a good quality sound, not interfered with by user motion. It's well made, and has a handy quick release system allowing you to quickly adjust the angle of the microphone on the fly. The only minor downfall this has is that the rubber mount was not securely screwed onto the main pistol grip body, meaning it came loose halfway through a shoot, and could not be screwed back on until later when I had access to an alan key. Whilst this may have been an unlucky situation, and was easily solvable, it was frustrating at the time. But in general, a good product.
