Go with the SP-CMC2. Its a stealth mic, very light, and widely used here. The Sony mic is difficult to conceal for concerts where taping is not permitted. If you were to get a handheld mic for concerts where they allow taping, it would be better you invested your money in 2 good mics, a preamp/AD, XLR cables, and a sturdy mic stand. Other members can give an idea on what pair of mics that have worked to their enjoyment. That's my 2 cents.
