  1. I was trying to get a cheap shotgun mic to field record foley, birds and stuff. I bought a #Boya PVM-1000 or VM-1000N (labeling is inconsistent). It's a piece of trash. Came broken from the factory as well. Not only is the off-axis sound rejection extremely poor to the point where sometimes I can't tell the difference between 90 degrees off axis and 180 degrees off. The high-pass filter cuts at 1 kHz and the shock mount does nothing.
