Anyone have experience with this mic? I bought one for my Panasonic G6. It sounds much better then the camera's mics, but there is still a bit too much noise. So I'm going to use an external recorder.

But rather then return it, I was thinking about holding on to it for the GH4 I'll buy in 6 months or so. I wondering if the noise is from the G6's circuitry, and would be improved in the GH4? I love everything else about the Tascam mic, no batteries, very small, built in shock mount, can sit on a hot shoe or 1/4 inch screw, included dead kitten, low cut switch, very affordable.

What do you guys think? Anyone using this mic on other cameras with any success?
 
They appear like the mics on some of the Tascam portable budget recorders.. so I wouldn't expect much for that price. OTOH, the noise could be from the Panasonic G6.
