Product Description

The RØDE VideoMic is a professional grade 1/2" condenser shotgun microphone designed for use with consumer video cameras and personal audio recorders. The integrated Rycote shock mounting system isolates the VideoMic capsule and electronics from its all-metal shoe mount, providing isolation from external physical factors that may cause unwanted rumble and vibrations in the microphone. Its standard sized shoe mount also includes a 3/8" thread in the base for easy mounting on the included boom pole and adaptor. The On Stage MBP7000 boom pole is machined from a sturdy and lightweight aluminum, which allows you to mount your microphone securely and follow your sound source with ease. It features three telescopic rods that utilize a twist-and-lock system, creating quick, simple and efficient settings extending the length from 3.1-8.1 feet. This package also includes a 25 ft. extension cable in order to connect the Videomic to your camera when mounted on a fully extended boom pole. Its super cardioid polar pattern is highly directional, focusing on the subject in front of the camera, and minimizing any surrounding sounds. In addition to the microphone's native 40Hz-20kHz response a selectable high-pass filter at 80 Hz is available, which will prevent low end noise such as air conditioners and traffic from being recorded. A -10 dB and -20 dB level attenuation (or PAD), selectable from inside the battery compartment, allows recording of loud sound sources, such as live music or motorsport. The new RØDE VideoMic features an integrated shock mount based on Rycote Lyre technology. Constructed from a single piece of hard-wearing thermoplastic, the Lyre provides superior acoustic suspension to traditional elastic solutions, and will never wear out, sag or snap. The RØDE VideoMic directional on-camera microphone is covered by RØDE Microphones' industry-leading 10-year warranty.

    Customers like the audio quality, quality and value of the microphone. For example, they mention it works and sounds very well, the boom is sturdy and it's worth the money. Customers are also happy with portability, and practicality. That said, some complain about the sound quality. They say it records tinny-sounding audio with little to no bass, and has a major hiss.

    Shout Out to Rode's Customer Support
    I've purchased the VideoMic back in mid-2020 and the shockmount (Rycote Lyre Mount) has been gradually worn out through time. Out of curiosity (and google replacement parts for sell with no luck) I contacted Rode's customer support to see if the mount can be purchased separately. Surprisingly, they actually honored their ten year warranty and I'm receiving the mounting parts free of charge. Small gesture like this can go a long way! I'm recommending this brand to my friends for sure.
