Hollyland Lark M1 Wireless Lavalier Microphone with Noise Cancellation, 656ft Transmission, 8H Battery Life, Compact Wireless Lapel Microphone System for DSLR Cameras, iPhones, Androids, Streaming

I was very skeptical at first due to the price but let me say I’m so glad I purchased these and have not had to pay £300 for the dji set, obviously these don’t have the screen display and mixer settings etc that the dji has but what can you expect for something nearly £200 pound cheaper, let’s face it most people complaining about these missing features on this set would probably never use it on the dji. The audio may bit a little bit different to the dji set but again let’s face it unless your really into audio your not going to be able to tell. The product itself is an ease to use and works really well, the quality is good and I would recommend to other videographers. The noise cancellation I wouldn’t use as it can sometimes cause some undesirable effect on vocals. The mounts are great to attach to clothing and you can even practically hide the mic under a shirt due to the way the mic is built onto the unit, built in charger case is a dream especially when I have a full day of shooting with clients. Overall a great piece of equipment for the price. Obviously if you have the spare cash to burn go for the dji set or Rode set but really these hold up just aswell and you have an extra £200 to spend on other kit

This is honestly an amazing budget lavier microphone I bought this set to help with the audio quality in my YouTube and tik tok videos and it was amazing. They're easy to carry around with me in case I need them on the go, they're small enough to fit in my pocket, they have brilliant battery life and the audio quality you get is amazing it's brilliant price to performance. They connect really easily to the phone and sound amazing. I highly recommend these if you need to record audio for any reason be it outside or otherwise. The noise cancelling for background noise is a life saver too.

It’s a lovely little product. The sound quality is not on a par with the Rose or the DJI mics of the same size, but then again they are 2-3x more expensive. For the price this is excellent. I have used this in an extremely loud room for a wedding reception to ask guests to record video messages. I couldn’t hear the people talking in the room but the mics picked them up perfectly. Also it’s so compact it’ll fit into any size camera bag and they couldn’t be easier to use. Have used on an SLR, an iPhone 12 Pro Max, an iPad Pro 3rd gen and a Zoom H6 audio recorder using various adapters and all of them worked perfectly. Very versatile, very portable and decent enough sound that you won’t be disappointed.

EDIT - The seller contacted me after my original review. They listened to my problem, walked me through some diagnostic questions, found the problem component and sent me a replacement. Everything now works as intended. Fast, friendly and professional service. Thank you. I’ve had a chance to use these a number of times now. The sound quality doesn’t match the equivalent high-end models but we came here for budgetary reasons. I’ve used for video interviews inside and outside, in quiet and loud spaces and found them to be really adaptable. I’ve also used for a podcast recording on my iPhone and been really impressed. The noise cancelling mode is a little synthetic and lacking in high end but not so much that I haven’t been making use of it. It’s not broadcast quality but it’s plenty good enough for the social media content I create for a living. These are in my kit bag everywhere I go now and I’ve recommended them to a number of people who’ve asked about them after seeing me use them. Original review below: I had 2 uses in mind for these. Shooting interviews on camera at live events with my Lumix GH5, and recording interviews for my podcast straight to my iPhone. They’ve been great for the first job. They still pick up a little more background noise than you’d like but they’re a budget option, generally the sound is good and they’re very easy to set up and use. As for the 2nd job, I have now bought 3 different Lightning to 3.5mm adapter cables, all MFI certified, including the official apple one, and still nothing. They simply never work with either my old iPhone 11 or my 13 pro max.

I am quite happy with it. Attaches well, stays in place, decent sound quality. My only con would be that it's a pain to attach the receiver to the phone while on a gimbal, but hey, it's not being sold as gimbal compatible. So yeah, the sound is clean, it does not drop connection, all good.

So far, very impressed. I plugged the receive into my USB-C port, my MacBook Pro immediately recognised it, and as the microphone's were paired to the receiver it just worked straight out of the box. I tested it with a couple of colleagues and it worked brilliantly. It cancels out background noise so voices are super clear even with ambient noise. Great stuff.

I am a professional film maker and broadcaster. This doesn’t mean I have artificially high expectations, it means I just know what adequate sounds like. DO NOT BUY THESE - you’ll only like them if you’ve never used anything good (like the microphone in your late 1990s Blackberry, for example) Feel free to watch my video review and form your own opinion. These are absolutely terrible. Maybe my set are faulty, but I’m not willing to take the risk of swapping them. I’m going with an actual reputable microphone manufacturer like RODE or Sennheiser - we have their kit in house and its extremely reliable. Bought this as a YouTube recommended inexpensive solution for a client. Thank goodness I never sent them over. Hopefully I can find the outer box for a refund. These are noisy, distorted and horrendously bad. I’ve connected them direct to cameras, into field recorders, into broadcast decks… nothing can mitigate their poor pickup, distortion (without noise reduction in use) and their horrible noise floor. I’ve had better for half the money.

Great microphones for video and live streams where you dont use PA monitors. The microphones are a bit on the to swnsitive side as it picks up all the sound from the surrounding area. I would say they work fine in quiet surroundings. Sound quality is pretty good, a bit on the "boomy" side, so it could do with a bit of EQ. It's not good for live performance where you use a PA system. You will get a lot of feedback as the mic easily pick up the sound from the speakers. The size of the pack is spot on. The charge case is to small to fit the microphones with the "dead cat" fitted, so you always have to de attach the dead cat before putting the mic's in the case. The microphones are perfect sized, clips onto your shirt, t-shirt, jacket... You barely notice that you wear them. They are pretty light weight as well. Receiver size is a bit bigger than the microphones but can easily be attached to a camera or what ever you want. All in all. I love the set. Works for my IRL live streaming.

La verdad que llevaba tiempo queriendo comprarme un micrófono de corbata inalámbrico y los Hollyland Lark M1 , fueron una de las mejores inversiones . En mi opinión , calidad precio van genial funcionan a distancias largas , y en espacios con eco apenas se nota el ruido . Yo los utilizo sobre todo para grabar videos de YouTube y videos para tik tok y Instagram y van genial , el sonido es claro y limpio , tienen la opción de la eliminación de el ruido que hace que el sonido sea mas limpio y a la hora de hacer una edición del audio mejoran mucho mas y no se nota nada , además el echo de que sean inalámbricos te da ese punto de no tener que utilizar una grabadora y estar ajustando el audio en en edición y sirven para cámaras de fotos y video como para teléfonos móviles

I am really amazed with the quality and battery life of the Hollyland Lark M1 Wireless Lavalier Microphone System. It is very easy to use. Just take out the clip on mic and receiver from the charging case and connect on the camera. You are ready to go. I have done couple of interview recording over 1 hour in total and it is very easy to use. Sound quality is amazing. I like the noise cancelling feature. It will not destroy the voice. If you are using single mic, make sure to use mono mode. Otherwise voice will come from one side when using head phone. Portability, easy to use, battery life and sound quality are the key things I really like about this mic. Highly recommend for people who has busy schedule when shooting. You can even use it with your mobile phone too. I use it with both my DSLRs and Mobile Phone. Works well with both.

I have used this product for a week now on multiple devices, iPhone, Canon cameras, Osmo Pocket, Insta 360 One RS and so far it has not disappointed me. I appreciate that this came with a bunch of cables for different devices, its ability to turn off/on noise cancellation and the ability to change the mode from stereo to mono (vice-versa) in a touch of a button. I have used this one weekend from lunch time to evening and the battery has not died on me. In summary, I like this product and highly recommend if you are looking for an alternative good lavalier that does not hurt much your pocket.

Absolutely love the product Sound comes through lovely and crisp plus the battery life is excellent Only thing standing in the way of a 5 star is the fact that the transmitter does not have pass through for me to charge my phone while it’s connected

Das Hollyland Lark M1 Lavalier-Mikrofon hat mich voll überzeugt. Die Klangqualität ist klar und natürlich, selbst in etwas lauteren Umgebungen werden Stimmen sauber aufgenommen. Die kabellose Verbindung funktioniert stabil und zuverlässig ohne Aussetzer, was für mich ein großer Pluspunkt ist. Besonders praktisch ist die kompakte Größe von Sender und Empfänger sowie die einfache Einrichtung – in wenigen Minuten war alles startklar. Die Akkulaufzeit ist ausreichend für längere Aufnahmen, und das Mikrofon sitzt angenehm am Kragen. Fazit: Ein professionelles, benutzerfreundliches Mikrofon, das klare Aufnahmen liefert und ideal für Interviews, Vlogs oder Präsentationen ist. Klare 5 Sterne und eine klare Kaufempfehlung!
