why does no one test outdoors with wind?? Even the built in mic's work perfect indoors, not much of a test.

@xsabers the shape. Real ones are more rounded, fake looks more rectangular
-
Did you get rid of the hissing sound? When I insert my mic, I get an annoying hiss/buss. I'm running firmware 1.06

hi I placed your video on my site learn kodak hd.com
-
and yet still the fake mic sounds better, score 6 for fake!
-
How can you tell the fake SONYs from the real ones (except they are only $5)?
-
You answered the question whether a battery-powered mic is required: Not. I bought an Olympus ME52W and I don't think it sounds as good as the internal mic.

Can you use a Zoom H2 as the external mic for the zi8??

@23SarahBeth You could connect the Zoom's headphone output to the Kodak's microphone input, but I'm not sure how good the quality would be.
