The ESM-1-TA4 Single-Sided Earset Microphone for Shure Transmitters from Polsen is a low-profile, lightweight earset microphone that is designed to deliver accurate and natural-sounding speech and vocals. The miniature 3mm microphone is optimized for speech and is mounted on a flexible, adjustable boom for precise mic placement. The single-sided earclip easily conforms to your ear and holds the mic in place for active applications such as fitness, mobile journalism, house of worship, and more.

The microphone's omnidirectional polar pattern is designed to pick up speech from all directions; even when the mic isn't directly in front of your mouth, the sound is still present and clear. Additionally, for theatrical and live presentations, this earset's low profile won't obstruct a user's face, distract an audience, or cast an unwanted shadow. Built with a cable that terminates to a TA4F connector, it is compatible with Shure wireless bodypack transmitters.

The ESM-1-TA4 features a TA4F connector for compatibility with Shure wireless transmitters. The 47" cable is long enough that it won't restrict your movements while speaking or performing.

The earset microphone is optimized for capturing clear, natural-speech, and vocals. When recording in a large venue with a large audience, the omnidirectional polar pattern allows you to be heard loud and clear.

The omnidirectional polar pattern is designed to pick up your voice if the microphone is in front of you or off axis. It ensures a low sensitivity to vocal pops or plosives and sounds natural and accurate, and even if the mic is very close to your mouth, it won't sound deep or boomy.

There isn't anything like the freedom of speaking when there's nothing distracting or bothering you. The ESM-1-35H is so light and slim that you might not know you're wearing it. Securely attached with a single earclip, you'll never have to worry about mic placement.

The low-profile microphone is easy to use for on-camera or live presentations. It won't obstruct or cast an unwanted shadow when shooting video and is barely noticeable by the audience.

For stability, the ESM-1-TA4's single earclip adjusts to your ear and securely holds the microphone in place for applications from gym spin classes to large speaking venues.

A: Whether this may work or not, depends on the gimbal, its weight limit and if it can handle the uneven weight distribution. A lighter microphone , that sits closer to the camera may be a better option. Look into, IndiPRO Tools Saramonic Pro Stereo Microphone for GoPro HERO4, HERO3+, & HERO3 as an option.

Q: 5. Will this work with GoPro 7 Black ? Does it need different mount ?

A: As already mentioned, this will only work with GoPro cameras with a micro-usb port. The Gopro 5, 6, and presumably the new 7 have usb-c ports. I have been unable to find an adapter which would allow for that connection.

Q: 6. How well is the bottom side of the bag reinforced? I guess I mean the flexibility, is it very rigid for taking heavy loads up stairs?Thanks!

A: It should be sturdy enough to haul loads up and down steps... the corners and rails are made of high-impact shock-absorbing lightweight polymer and this adds the rigidity you seek. Just be careful to not let the case slam steps when when going up or down stairs...

Q: 7. Does this work with phantom power?

Q: 8. IS THIS TOO HEAVY N UNBALANCED FOR A GIMBAL ?

A: The weight of this is a very small number some where south of 5.6 oz. Whether or not it works depends of course on the gimbals's capacity.
