    The main advantage of a handheld mic is that YOU can decide when the interviewee has to stop talking.

    "What is it, a Walkman? A power bank?" Lol! Brilliant Lok, I love it!

    Things I love about Lok:
    The accent 10/10
    The "wideos" 10/10
    The excentric humour 10/10

    This is my gripe. it started with people using their apple earpods mics as a handheld mic.

    • @c0pyimitati0n
      @c0pyimitati0n Před měsícem +1

      I feel like young people thinks it looks cool or something. LIke one person started it and as always people copied them. But damn people, take the time to properly learn how to use your equipment. Then entire point of a lav mic is to be hands free and generally have the mic hidden or unnoticed.

  • @BubbaBearsFriend

    Nice, but I hate how even "pro" products don't have replaceable batteries anymore.

    • @SMGJohn
      @SMGJohn Před měsícem +1

      All designed on purpose to limit the lifespan, just buy old, microphones have been good for past 40 years, the only difference between a modern mic and an old one, is the receivers have gotten significantly smaller.

  • @AllThingsFilm1
    @AllThingsFilm1 Před měsícem +6

    Agreed. It looks weird when people hold the wireless transmitter or lav mic in their hand while talking, instead of just clipping it on their shirt.

      It's so annoying to see - not sure why it bugs me so much but I stop watching when I see that. LOL

    At 4:34 you made me laugh 🤭… you look just like like a TV reporter from the 80-ties with that mic 🎤 and trench coat 🧥 … I love that style!

    Is even worst when they are inside a studio sitting at a desk and holding the lav for 30 min 😂

  • @TheRealRichardWong
    @TheRealRichardWong Před měsícem +1

    Great video Lok! Yes i don't like it too when people just handheld their wireless lav mic

  • @c0pyimitati0n
    @c0pyimitati0n Před měsícem

    YES!! Thank you! It is so annoying seeing all these new content creators not know how to use a damn lav mic!!! It really grinds my gears.

  • @HollywoodweddingfilmsGREECE

    Is it able to charge from a USB-C powerbank , while you are recording internally and using it in general (being connected to a Rode wireless ME -or whatever- receiver etc) ?
    I mean , is it really gonna be worthless after several years of usage because of the dead internal battery ,
    or are you still going to be able to use it , by having it connected to a small power bank ? Thank you very much for your informative presentation and review.

  • @therealdavidleong
    @therealdavidleong Před měsícem +2

    People do it because they know they're going to get comments telling them that it's wrong, thus driving up their engagement

  • @lianalehua7424
    @lianalehua7424 Před měsícem

    YES, @Loki! THIS! I hate seeing creators holding a lav mic like it’s a look. It’s definitely how you can tell a creator from a filmmaker. There’s no motivation for holding the lav. A lot of these are the same creators who shoot a lot of slow mo that doesn’t serve the story and call it b-roll.

    4:45 Lok looking like $1,000,000. Lady killer!

  • @kenc2257
    @kenc2257 Před měsícem +1

    I've wondered about that...often, when someone is holding a lav mic, I find it weird and distracting. [for a while, I thought you left your expensive camera on a tripod, while walking away, backwards, on that London street...yikes! But, it seems you did have someone operating the camera...whew!]

    Thanks a Lok. (see what I did there?)

  • @andrearusky

    yes, it's really stupid when I see these "creators" holding those little microphones

  • @steamtrainmark

    Thank you Lok I use the rode wireless microphone s and work great.

  • @SMGJohn
    @SMGJohn Před měsícem

    Finally, someone who just says it like it is, holding it with your hand looks amateurish.
    And if you are doing professional video work and you are holding the tiny lapelmic up to someone, they will stop taking you seriously.

    • @ramdynebix
      @ramdynebix Před měsícem

      There is a large section of the public who unfortunately don’t like/trust/appreciate professionalism, they have internalized it as untruthful. So it is apparently a conscious choice of some video makers to do things unprofessionally even going as far as to pretend to be unprofessional…

  • @goodtobegeek
    @goodtobegeek Před měsícem

    Yes! It's so annoying that it's become 'a thing' for CZcamsrs to fumble what they're doing while holding a lav mic. IT HAS A CLIP!
    Almost as annoying as the masses that don't understand that a mobile phone is a two-way communicator with a speaker in the top and a mic in the bottom! IT'S NOT A WALKIE TALKIE!
    I sound like a grumpy old man, don't I?!

  • @nazhif1

    30 bucks for something you can 3D print for $1 is crazy

    • @Biru_to
      @Biru_to Před měsícem

      A decent foam windshield will run you around 10-15 buckerinos, so it's not that bad. It's probably a matter of time before a similar design appears on printables, thingiverse, etc. I think it's pretty cost effective, just a simple handle and foam cover, and you got a decent handheld mic !

  • @Peterstarzynskitech
    @Peterstarzynskitech Před měsícem

    I hold my wireless mic. I feel like I get a better sound from the mic.

  • @ThePandaPhotographer
    @ThePandaPhotographer Před měsícem +2

    you know why people and lazy CZcamsrs hold the lav mic or wireless mic to their faces. So they don't have to do any audio editing to fix bass, mid, etc.

    • @beefchicken
      @beefchicken Před měsícem +6

      They do it because it’s become a thing. It’s a about as logical as neckties.

    • @KM-nr3br
      @KM-nr3br Před měsícem +2

      We actually found it gives people confidence when presenting, especially if they are conscious of what they are doing with their hands it can actually help get better results as they suddenly have something to do
