I discovered this mic after Griffin Hammond from Indy Mogul said that he used it on wedding video shoots. His wedding films had great production value, so I was surprised to hear that a $25 microphone produced such good quality audio. His trick was to stick a small audio recorder in the groom's pocket and connect the Azden lavalier mic. This would capture great quality audio of the vows, which is critical for producing a professional level wedding film.
On my video interview shoots, I plug the Azden mic into a Zoom H4n recorder to capture the audio separately from the camera so I could better control the audio quality and avoid cables running from the video subject all the way to the camera.
See two videos below shot with the Azden EX-503:
