I mount this mic on my Panasonic X920-HDC handicam. With the deadcat fitted, it is long enough just to appear in the lens' wide angle view. It is possible to change the position of the mic on its flexible cradle, but if it is moved back a notch it impedes your hand when operating the zoom. Furthermore, the wire connecting the mic to the camera does not remain in the little restraining slot on the back of the cradle. I expect these are not problems on a DSLR.

The specifications mention that the mic has an "output connection of 3.5mm TRS mini-jack (dual mono)". This I take to mean both terminals on the jack deliver a signal, but the signals are the same, thus in effect delivering mono. So don't think you are buying a stereo microphone.

The dead cat is very effective and well worth iincluding in your purchase.

The mic is great when it works!

The mic has a slight problem with a connectivity and happens to a friend too!
There is a judder noise (very noticeable) while recording.

To solve this:
You need to keep plugging and unplugging the mic and recording sound test until it stops Unfortunateley.

Overall when it works, the sound is amazing!
