Great for podcasting. This is vastly more effecient audio quality wise than my rode mic. One that you do sacrific howber is portability. Would I have this in a hotshoe on stationary/tripod camera? Sure. Handheld? Probably not.
The included pouch with additional cables is handy for if you have an audio mixer.

There’s nothing like a good quality XLR mic. This mic delivers audio quality that trumps all my much smaller vlog style mics. This mic is very large and I would not use it in a vlogging scenario unless I was stationary. This is the perfect mic for long format videos, interviews, podcasts and talking head videos.
The audio is exceptional with both cables, but I honestly prefer plugging the XLR in to my Zoom H8 recorder for the best audio possible. It comes with an XLR to 3.5mm cable. I mounted this on a boom arm and tilted it down while being positioned slightly out of frame and the audio was cleaner, and crisper than when I wear any of my wireless mic sets.
This will find a permanent home in my office for all my audio needs.

I love that it comes with a XLR to XLR cable as well as a XLR to 3.5mm jack. That way I can plug it into a professional interface, or just slap it directly into the camera. It gives the option to power with phantom power through an interface, or with only a single AA battery. I've yet to see a microphone with that much versatility.
I tried it with the 3.5mm jack and the audio I received out of it was mediocre. It was very quiet, and if I turned it up, I got a slight hum in the background.
I'll be trying it with an XLR port on an interface to see if the quality improves, but as my intended use was the 3.5, it's not really going to work for my purposes. It does provide audio that's better than the camera, but not as good as I was hoping for.
On a happier note, the windscreen and deadcat work fantastic for windy environments, so if I need to record on a windy day, this may still be a go to mic.
I was also impressed by the shock mount at avoiding snaps and pops during hard movements.
Overall a good mic.
