What kind of batteries are required? Also, the product photo doesn't show the mic, is it in fact included?

You are right. Usually Amazon do not include full specs or clear explanations about what they sell. Just opinions. I have this mic, use 9 volts batteries and the mic (multidirectional good for speech in a silent place, not good in a noisy environment) it's included.

Yes, it is a condenser mic and requires power. Usually the power would be supplied by the wireless body pack transmitter.

The mic doesn't come with a usb cable, It takes an XLR cable but doesn't ship with one of those either.

It uses 3 x AAA batteries. One for the microphone and two for the receiver. It does come with one set of batteries.

Did you get an answer about the microphones? Thats what I need prior to ordering?

No microphone. The colors are also very off and half of the leds have quit working after 6 months. Kind of frustrating.

it has a mic. you will probably need a sound card. Most computers now come with them.

The microphone needs to have a power source. If you do not have a (phantom) power it will not work.

Unless the seller is specifically supplies the cable as a package you will need to get one as it does not come with the mic. It does include the mounting clip and a carrying pouch.

This mic is not made to be plugged into a camera directly! You need the transmitter and receiver as well! I got this to replace the mic that came with my audio package!

No, this is just the microphone. You have to buy a base unit and a battery pack, to plug into a speaker and to connect to the mic.

This has one of those small mic jacks. ..looks like the size of a headphone jack. I haven't looked in a while tho, the battery's are out again and they are so expensive.

Hi there! Hmm I might miss out some things but here goes. There's the mic of course, with a dust bag, the shock absorber with pop filter, a big cable to connect the mic to something else (sorry I'm not very technical). Oh yes the mic requires phantom power too so the cable is for that. And there's a cd or two. I can't really rmb I had it quite some time ago. Anyway it's pretty good stuff, looks nice, sounds great and quite a steal. That should be all.

It is a standard camera that comes with one battery and a charging cord. You'll have to order any external mics, car chargers, and attachable external lights.

This is ONLY the microphone. Short cord, about 18-24". Needs a wireless mic transmitter. Direct plugging is not an option.

The pack included a basic wired earpiece / microphone combination. I separately ordered the compatible throat mics. Was a gift that continues to be used. I know it did come with a rechargeable battery pack & charger; but do not know battery size.

I know there's a microphone jack on the camera. It's just an RCA plug. Has anyone used a separate mic with the camera? If so, where did you find the microphone? I've been looking on the web. I'm glad that some things are included in the box. From the description, it seemed that there was nothing in the box but the camera -- not even a battery!
