RODE VideoMic GO Ultralight condenser shotgun microphone

The VideoMic GO is ideal for HD hobby filmmakers who want to upgrade their original sound with the proven RØDE transmission quality, cheap, uncomplicated and without much knowledge of audio engineering. It is with his standard hot shoe adapter lightning fast and safely mounted, plugged and then ready to use - no switches, no settings, no 
battery, no parts lost and with 73 g super light!

Unlike internal camera microphones and not least thanks to thepatented, red Lyre- swing mount from Rycote (incidentally, the "Rolls Royce" under the manufacture of film sound accessories), the VideoMic GO is optimally decoupled from mechanically induced noise, engine and handle sounds are from the "Lyre "Effectively defused. The intended sound waves, the useful signal, are recorded in high-resolution by the 1/2 "condenser capsule of the VideoMic GO and then pre-amplified suitably and noise-free for the camera.

Designed as a shotgun microphone, the VideoMic GO has the desired high attenuation of laterally incident sound waves, the sound recording takes place - assuming a central lightning shoe mounting - always perfectly on the axis of the respective image detail. Of course, if necessary, the VideoMic GO can also be operated remotely from the camera, be it for interviews with a handle or Tonangel or on a small table stand; For this purpose, the typical 3/8 "thread is embedded in the base of the hot shoe adapter.

Conveniently, the enclosed spiral cable is plugged into both the microphone and the camera, so it can never accidentally be torn from the electronics of the microphone by accident. The condenser capsule of the VideoMic GO is also supplied with its supply current via this special three-wire cable, directly from the microphone input of the camera.Most current DSLR models and also GoPro cameras provide these 2.5 V with the necessary amperage.
