Selected User Reviews For Rode VideoMic Microphone Pack with Rycote Lyre Mount, Boom Pole, Screw Adapter and Extension Cable

Here are two of the most irritating features
3/5

Essentially, it is just a normal microphone. It has nothing special to offer. There are two aspects about this mic that I do not understand why Rode designed this mic in this way from a convenience standpoint. 1)
The battery should be 9 volts. Is that true? What are the benefits of a 9 volt battery today? My purposes don't require a lot of use of this microphone, and having to track down or buy another 9 volt battery every time I need to use it is extremely Rode batteries, which every one has handy, can be plugged in if you want Put an end to it all with a hand. 2) Item 4 What are the mounting holes required for 3/8-inch screws? A microphone of this size weighs somewhere between 10 and 15 A 1/4 inch hole is the standard hole used to mount most cameras and accessory parts. So there's no need to use a 3/8 inch screw to hold the cap on. The Rode Video Mic can only be used by people with cameras that have video records. 1/4 inch is the standard mount for cameras.

I really like the sound! This is a worthwhile purchase
4/5

Then, add this Apart from the music, you will not hear any sounds in the attached video. It was really impressive how the sound was captured during the pouring of the drink.

For a DSLR, this mic pack is a must
5/5

With this microphone, I can produce videos on my DSLR with ease. I like how low the background noise is and how easy it is to use. Canon users should take note of the following Upon my first attempt to use the microphone, I thought it was defective. You need to pull very hard on the audio connector to make sure it fully seats in the microphone connector on the camera. There is a problem with the cable not seated fully and, therefore, it cannot be connected until a lot of pressure is applied.

I was almost forced to return due to a buzzing An initial troubleshooting process led to the discovery of the issue
4/5

The product so far has been great, I have not tried the boom pole yet, but I'm sure it will be good. After quite a bit of troubleshooting, I was very close to returning the microphone. After disengaging myself from electronics as much as possible, I walked outside on a stock battery (I decided to get as far away from electronics as possible) and unplugged my pansonic g7 battery adapter (not name brand). A buzzing noise is no longer present With a considerable amount of power tools and lights plugged in, I went back into my workshop. I don't have a problem. Interference from the knock-on effect was the problem The power adapter has been turned off. In the meantime, I will keep the microphone as well as search for another adapter. I am pleased with how the sound quality is considering the price. As far as I'm concerned, this is where it should.

This is a great microphone
5/5

In addition to Boom being well made, it has an attractive appearance. The best mic that I own at the moment is this one. The equipment I use for production sound is mainly for video and short film production. I do not think I've ever had to replace the battery once, which is surprising because I've used it on many shoots that lasted for hours. With the Zoom H1, I can hear everything I point it at with the same level of crispness and clarity. In addition to its usefulness on location, the boom pole is small and light, which makes it a very attractive feature on set. I have only had one experience with this mic when it performed below expectations If I use it plugged into my camera (a Canon T5i), I get a par. It is hard for me to blame the mic for that, since Canon treats audio as a very.

With the included Boom pole and extension, this audio system is perfect for any environment
5/5

It is very light and easy to carry. The best buy of the year! I have been extremely pleased with the sound quality when recording from the Sony a6300, as well as the extension cable that comes with the kit, which is indispensable for mounting the mic on the boom pole and giving me a fair amount of flexibility. This is a very well-built product with excellent build quality and high shock absorption, and it is extremely light because of the plastic construction. A particular challenge for the a6300 is that you cannot look through the EVF when mounted on the hotshoe, but you can look into the mic when shooting wide-angles When recording in an area that is very busy, the low-frequency filter really improves everything. Another issue is that one might forget to turn it on, and the audio recording will be lost, or one might accidentally turn it off, wasting battery power.

I can't believe that a product this expensive and fragile could exist
3/5

It is hard to believe that a product this valuable, this fragile, does not come with a It doesn't matter what the plastic wrap looks like. Therefore, I will not remove it from the document until the right one turns up. I don't know what this thing is called. One would expect more from a brand that is well known.

This is a great Despite its ease of use and great sound quality, the mic can handle a wide range of applications
5/5

Additionally, the boom pole is lightweight but extremely stable, and it is easy to adjust as well.
