This was the perfect gift for me! I was actually just researching a good microphone to aid in voice-over and foley sound (but alas, I am a broke college kid). I'm going to school for film production, and this high-end microphone will really give me an edge in my filmmaking. Thanks a ton Kriss! I was really pleasantly surprised to receive this, and it will definitely come in handy with many future projects.

PS - I was tempted to record my thank you message with the microphone and attach it via Youtube. However, I was mortified by how annoying my voice really is when I played back some test audio. Nonetheless, happy holidays!
