Fantastic for the price
Great product! I have used this mic since spring/summer of 2010 and each time I wonder if it will handle a situation and it continues to amaze me. The Rode VideoMic was able to deliver and pickup the sounds of a Qui Gong Master performing an exercise/lesson/demo while outside and having me stand about 25-30ft away while clicking his fingers behind and on his head with crisp, distinctive sound when played back. I couldn’t believe it captured the sound which now makes me wonder, what would the audio have been like using the DeadCat for the wind reduction. That is next on my wish list for sure.This little unit was also put through a test when video recording a friends wedding and the minister turned off the sound system on me and I was left to record only the sound that was being presented without a direct connect. That was in a balcony, around 100ft away. It did a fair job, well more than I could have asked for and I’m not sure another mic would have even performed that good. A simple run through SoundBooth after for cleanup and the audio would go from fair to very acceptable. An event to remember to say the least.The battery life lasts more than I could ask for. I used only “two” 9 volt batteries and changed one out after 115 hours because I didn’t want to be caught needing to change them during an event even though the light turns yellow. I’m still on the second battery and after a minimum total between the two batteries of 230 hours of video/audio recording since I received my Rode Mic this really adds ease of mind during any event.Fit and finish are nice. I don’t mind if things are made from plastic as long as the material is really sturdy. This unit is. I have it in my backpack all the time and aside from the action of travels, it gets removed from the mic bracket constantly without issue or seemingly any wear and tear. I will touch on this more below. I really like the fact that Rode gives you about 4-6 extra “bands” for the shock mount. My only slight issue is that the mic can bounce around somewhat easy because of the bands but it does take away any noise issue one would get without them so it’s acceptable.Now a few findings…I know this will very by skill and what equipment is used by an individual(s) so a quick list of what this is used with. I’m using the Rode with a Canon HF-S21 and a “L” bracket attached to the bottom of the camera and mounted with a Manfrotto 701 video head and 055CXPRO3 tripod legs. Very good setup however I found out that any bump to the camera (of course) and the legs gets picked up by the mic as well. I mean as simple as my headphone wire hitting a tripod leg while panning (live and learn). I think I will also be adding some tripod leg wraps of foam to play it safe in the future but the tripod really isn’t made directly for video. It’s for a camera and I know that the legs for a video tripod are different but you do with what you have on hand and learn from that. If the mic had any faults, it is that it can pick everything up so keep that in mind.To get back to the above wear and tear, I question how well the cold shoe mount threads will hold up under a ton of tightening and loosening (and I don’t mean over twisting/tightening them) but it also has a 10 year warranty so for now, I won’t really loose sleep over it. Of wear and tear, an included soft or optional hard case would be something nice offered by Rode to keep the mic in great shape. Other than that I can only question one last thing and that is the on/off switch. While it is sturdy, will it triumph on the longevity? Only time will tell.I highly recommend this mic for video and even for a Pod/Video Cast if need be.

RODE Rocks!
After spending many days combing the internet and reading review after review I decided to give the RODE VideoMic Directional Camcorder Microphone a try. I wanted something that was good, light, somewhat short and inexpensive. I have a small mini dv camcorder that is only about 5 inches long and didn’t want a mic that would get in my viewfinder’s shots. The mic sticks out about 5 inches in front of my lens, but manages to stay out of my shots.First let me comment on the sound. This little bugger picks up sounds very well. In a quiet room I can be 40 yards away and still pick up the conversation. The quality is outstanding. The audio compared to the built-in mic in my camcorder is night and day. The Rode is so clear. The price is great. I’m guessing the quality would compare to other mics in the $300 range.My Rode came with a Dead Cat wind screen which resembles a cat’s tail. It really saved me some money! At first I didn’t use the Dead Cat, but then I ran into a little wind which interfered with gathering good audio. After using the Dead Cat, I always keep the wind screen on the mic. It does not interfere with the clarity of the audio and works incredibly well in breezy conditions. I will mention that I had to trim the hair on my wind screen because I could see the hair in my videos. After trimming the hair a bit, the wind screen is still effective and no more hair dangling in the top of my video screen.The shock vibration design is cool and they even gave me extra rubber band thingies. This mic sits high off the camera and stays out of my shots. Since the mic is somewhat far away from the camcorder, I don’t pick up any camera humming noise that can happen with other mics that are too close to the camera. Even on my hotshoe, I don’t get any humming.I wish I could say that I have used $300 mics and above, but I haven’t. I will say that you won’t be disappointed with this microphone. I’m a photojournalist by trade and I have begun to shoot video for our newspaper’s web publication. This mic is perfect for my needs.If you buy it, don’t forget to turn off the mic. I accidently left mine on. There is no auto shutoff.

very good microphone for people using dslr’s for recording video but want half decent sound. fits well and snug on the hotshoe, on my Nikon d3300 which has an external mic port so be careful some dslr’s dont have them. The internal sound controls are a bit hard to get to so i don’t use them but they are not very important unless you are going somewhere very loud. i have managed to rig mine up with a Dictaphone and an audio splitter on my dslr so i can monitor the audio, which i would recommend. with it being a shotgun microphone you can really tell the sound is captured from where it is pointing which is great. the shock mount is very good stopping any vibrations that would create noise. the sound can be a bit hissy unless you turn down the mic preamp level on a dslr so bear this in mind as i thought it was the mic at first.I recommend this over the rode go mic unless your really pushed for price and space, as it is much better and not too more expensive. i cant really compare it to the video mic pro but i would say is at least half as good for around half the price. you also get a good warranty from rode which i would recommend using alsooverall very pleased and would definitely recommend for people wanting an external mic for their camera.

Le son du Rode VidéoMic est parfait lors d’enregistrement de mes vidéos sur mon caméscope mais également sur mon appareil photo Hybride le GX8 (avec un adaptateur jack 3.5mn vers2.5mn pour le GX8). Le sabot du micro permet de fixer rapidement le micro sur un reflex ou sur une perche (vis en 3/8” acheter des vis d’adaptation 1/4). Le filtre est très utile pour les bruits de fond comme les voiture et il est accessible en façade du corps du micro. En revanche sur un reflex Nikon j’ai un léger bruit parasite en fond mais cela reste largement acceptable en réglant l’audio dans les paramétrés du Reflex. Très bonne conception du micro et un bon rapport qualité prix. Il faut une pile de 9 volts qui est à changer au bout de 70 heurs d’utilisation d’après la notice.
