Whether perched atop your camera or positioned on a mic stand, this B&H Kit provides vloggers, in-studio videographers, and documentary makers who need a versatile shotgun mic setup that works with any camcorder or HDSLR camera. It features the Rode VideoMic battery-powered shotgun microphone with a selectable pad and bass roll-off, a tripod mic stand with a telescoping boom, a 5/8"-27 to 3/8"-16 stand adapter, and a 25' 3.5mm TRS extension cable. The microphone incorporates a foam windscreen to reduce noise from light wind and a Rycote Lyre shockmount to reduce vibration noise.

Rode VideoMic Camera-Mount Shotgun Microphone

Compared to the smaller VideoMic GO, the Rode VideoMic camera-mount shotgun microphone offers battery powering, extended low-end response, and customizable audio settings. Its switchable pad and bass roll-off optimize it for mobile journalists, vloggers, and run-and-gun shooters in loud or rumble-heavy environments.

This shotgun microphone features an integrated shockmount that mounts directly to your DSLR, mirrorless, or video camera and reduces noise from vibrations and camera handling. The windscreen design reduces wind noise, making it well suited for outdoor shoots. The attached 3.5mm TRS cable ensures easy hookup to your camera, and the dual-mono output means that no channel selection is necessary on your recording device.

Shotgun Mic with Directional Sound Pickup

Whereas most built-in camera microphones pick up sound from all directions, this microphone utilizes a supercardioid polar pattern to focus on sound in front of it while attenuating sound from the sides and rear. Its active electronics and directional condenser element deliver more detailed audio than the mics typically found in cameras and portable recorders.

Easy Hookup to Camera

A coiled 3.5mm cable is permanently attached to the mic for fast hookup to your camera. The cable's 3.5mm TRS plug is wired in a dual-mono configuration, ensuring that the mic signal is sent identically to both input channels of your camera or portable recorder.

Long Battery Life

Pop a 9V battery in the VideoMic for up to 100 hours of operating time. The dedicated power LED changes from green to red when the battery should be replaced. The VideoMic can still function for approximately one hour once the power indicator turns red, but performance will be compromised. Use the power switch to conserve battery life during periods of inactivity.

Bass Roll-Off

The high-pass filter can be set to flat or 80 Hz to roll off low-frequency noise from common sources such as air conditioners and traffic.

Selectable Pad

To protect against distortion, the VideoMic offers a pad that reduces the signal level. Switch to the -10 dB option when loud sound sources threaten to distort your recording, use the -20 dB position to prevent extreme input levels from clipping causing clipping, or select the flat setting when routing the mic into a dedicated high-quality preamp.

Integrated Shockmount Inhibits Vibrations

Understanding that the rubber bands used in many shockmounts can snap and stretch, Rode chose to integrate a rugged Rycote Lyre suspension-style shockmount. This simplifies setup of the mic and inhibits the transfer of vibrations from the camera. Plus, the bottom of the shockmount features a camera shoe mount with a 3/8" thread, ensuring easy attachment to your camera or a boompole such as Rode's Micro Boompole (available separately).

Windscreen Minimizes Wind Noise

The VideoMic has a foam windscreen to reduce unwanted wind noise from breezes, fans, heaters, and air conditioners. For maximum reduction of wind noise in outdoor environments, consider a furry windshield such as the Rode DeadCat (available separately).

Connectivity Options

Expand the microphone's device compatibility with Rode accessories such as the SC4 and VXLR (both available separately). The SC4 is a short cable that lets you connect the VideoMic directly to a smartphone or tablet equipped with a 3.5mm TRRS jack. The VXLR adapter is the ideal solution when you want to record the VideoMic to a camcorder or mixer that has XLR inputs.

Auray AD-5838-B 5/8"-27 Female to 3/8"-16 Male Mic Stand Adapter

5/8"-27 to 3/8"-16 Adapter

question

I have a Canon rebel EOS T1I and I really want to purchase this kit but my camera doesn't have a external mic jack, is there anything I can I get so that I would be able to still use everything or would the kit only work when it is hooked up to a camera?
Asked by: Eric W.
This kit could be used in conjunction with a portable audio recorder. The audio from the recorder could then be synced using software when editing the video on the computer.

will this work with Lumix FZ300?

will this work with Lumix FZ300?
Asked by: Kitty
This should be no problem. Newer versions of the Lumix have the proper 3.5mm input jack so using the boom pole should work fine. Also, the standard shoe mount will accept direct mounting on the camera.

question

Is the suspension system still any good when mounted with the Vello - CB-510 on the side of a camcorder?
Asked by: Amelie M.
I use this on a Canon DSLR, and unfortunately, it transmits all the autofocus noise into the mic when mounted on the flash shoe. If I'm not using a tripod, and moving while filming, I have to carry the mic in hand, off camera. I've tried several modifications and nothing has worked. I can only have the mic on camera when in manual focus, such as static situations like recording a speaker at a podium.

Does this set up work on a 7D Canon?
Asked by: Dick N.
It connects with a 3.5mm Mini stereo plug, it's your only option. Does your 7D have a jack? If so, then you're good to go.
