I got this to film with my EOS200D. It works perfectly, however the quality of the included lapel mic is terrible.I watched plenty of reviews on youtube as well as in the review section on this product's page. My microphone sounded nothing at all like the mics in the videos I watched. It is muffled, unclear and near impossible to polish in post.This is not user error either. I have a similar yet cheaper mic that I plugged into the transmitter and it was so much clearer and less muffled. This was using the same volume, placement and settings as the included K&F one.The transmitter and receiver are easy to use, problem free and work as intended. Excellent value for these!It is possible that it is down to manufacturing error however if you decide to get this, plan on getting a separate quality lav mic to use with the set just to be on the safe side!

This equipment delivers a good result for amateur video - at an affordable price. I used is at a second mic during a presentation at a professionally managed business conference. It didn't interfere (the stage audio technician could easily check for conflict - because the frequency is clearly shown on the display). Using this setup I videoed myself for training purposes in a room with wifi, and maybe 200 mobile phones. The casings on the equipment are lightweight plastic - probably not robust enough for heavy use, but then again - very light to carry.

I am always looking for cost effective ways to build up my gear collection and when I found this mic I couldn’t resist, I normally use a Rode VideoMicro but it does have its limitations. The M8 is constructed of plastic and as a result is very light but it does still feel nice and solid. It’s really easy to use and can be set up in just a few minutes out of the box with the addition of 4xAA batteries which are not included. The volume and channel controls can be found beneath the battery door which is a nice feature as it prevents the buttons from being pressed accidentally. The audio quality has been absolutely brilliant so far and I really cannot fault it for the price.
Fantastic Value For Money

 UPDATE:Have this item for 7 months already and its just great! Batteries last for months, i take the mic with me everywhere i go because of my work, started to use the channels recently to avoid any interference. Just wrote this update to let all of you know that the mic works great after months of use. Use this 3-4 times a week.Helo everyone. I bought a lot of photography gear and I have 2 clients, 2 girls who have an online channel, they do make up and I film their show, I have 8 lights, tripods, camera and so on. The thing is that the audio was really bad because i was recording just with my camera and I needed a good microphone. Took a while to find what I need and I bought this item for several reasons. Well, read a good review from someone who is audio specialist, another reason is that I already have 4 K&F products and they are very good, I trust this company. I made a video review, the audio quality is not so good because the files are comperessed but the original is good, i am not an expert in audio but personally i am really satisfied with the results. I filmed since I got the item around 4 hours and it totally makes the difference. Why I bought this lavalier microphone instead of a regular one? Well, I am planning to film some interviews for some hotels and I really need this type of product. As i am working withe these girls, i have placed the actual mic under the blouse just to hide it and the quality is good. I didnt try super high end products in this niche but for what I need its very good. I have tried it like 20-30 m away and its ok, this is the maximum distance i will need it for, for my interviews. Light and easy to use, I know that i need to have with me spare batteries which I am carrying all the time, read that they last for a long time. You got in the pack a spare small microphone with jack at the end. The cable for the micrphone is long enough, clip is made from metal not plastic which on a long term pretty sure it will last. I will pay attention to the antena of the actual mic because if its going to be under the clothes(attached to the belt because this is where actually goes). I have tried different volume intensity, in my case found that 7 is good enough. My suggestion is to place the microphone around the chest area, next to the neck the volume was a bit too high(red indicators on my camera). Pretty sure you can set it up as you prefer. For what I need to film, it took me 15 mins of tests to get the sound i was looking for so happy with this.You know, when you trust a brand you go for it. In my case its like this. K&F very good! The box is small and light, has this protective sponge(think its called like this) and I use it to carry them from location to location. I just put the box in the small pocket of my backpack and its all good. Hope this is helpful for you guys.Check the video I have uploded.If my review helped you in any way, could you please click on the ‘helpful’ button below? Thank you
UPDATE!! for what I need does a good job, indoor filming at the moment

As my old wireless lavalier system broke down, I order this K&F M8 system without know very well if his quality is good, as it is cheap. I have a very good surprise, the build is good, the packaging is beautiful but the most important to me is there, the noise level is really very low, almost no hiss and it works very well under a 50 meters distance. Also, during the tests I had no kind of interference in the signal, ever if I use my mobile phone close to it.The box come with the transmitter unit and the receiver unit, also with a lavalier microphone with enough cable length to be used by an actor. Also came with a cable link to connect the receiver to the camera, a hot shoe adapter for camera, a direct microphone without cable that can be attached directly to the transmitter and instructions manual.First I tested it with lavalier in a short interview, it works great. Also tested it with a professional NTG-2 R0DE shotgun microphone and also worked great. Another test I made is connect the R0DE microphone to a DSLR audio adapter, and then connect the output of audio adapter to the M8 transmitter “AUX” input. At also works great, one can use XLR professional microphones and then transmit the audio to the camera via the K&F M8 system, without any kind of noise or interference.Both receive and transmitter unit have a channel selector where you can choose between 6 different channels. Receiver also have a “MIC/AUX” selector, here you can select to use a direct microphone or a DSLR/Camera audio mixer/adapter. Receiver unit have a two buttons to change the audio lever to camera input.Both receiver and transmitter unit works with two AA cells, not included, due amazon delivery restrictions. I use AA rechargeable cells that lasts for two days of normal work.The LCD of both units displays the battery level, channel and volume level in receiver unit.Both receiver and transmitter unit came with a clip to use in the belt.I tested this K&F M8 with Leica SL camera, R0DE NTG-2, also with a R0DE lavalier and with a R0DE M2 professional Condenser Microphone. Also tested using a Marantz PMD-602A 2-channel DSLR Audio Interface.For a cheap system works really very well, comparable to other pro sets that costs more than 500 USD. Highly recommended.

I make youtube videos and i was looking for a microphone to record my videos without any noise. So i was looking for a good microphone and bump in to this one. Personaly i like this because lavaliere microphones are expensive this one wasnt that expensive.I get a perfect video after recording with this mic as the audio is stable and it compresses the surrounding noises.It is easy to use and not very heavy aswell. Having feasibility of recording your audio handsfree gives you other things to focus on while recording videos.The double microphone option is great as you can use the smaller head and the body mount clip on microphone as suitable for you.
Perfect

Good quality and value. The basic clip for underside hotshoe fixing a bit fiddly and came off easily, otherwise good.

This is such a great item. I wanted this wireless mic for a while now but couldn’t really afford it and instead spent on some cheap versions. Lucky day for me, I managed to sell some old camera accessories and made the money to buy this which is absolutely amazing. The sound is perfect and the volume is easy to setup. You need few batteries to get started but apart from that is quite straight forward. Brilliant item.
Awesome purchase Awesome purchase Awesome purchase
