Does it come with a shock mount ? How does the microphone attach
Asked by: Nam
The Zacuto MICRO Boompole (BH # ZAMICROBOOM) does not include a shock mount. A shock mount appropriate for the chosen microphone would be an optional purchase..

The m/f cable ends look the wrong way for most shotgun microphones.. am I seeing that correctly ?
Asked by: Nathan
It’s the wrong way for most DSLR‘s, which is what this microphone is designed for. The least they could do is add adapters to this kit.

is the cable reversible for microphones with a male end and not a female end? Could you use a Rode Videomic Pro?
Asked by: Joseph
Reversing the cable for the Zacuto MICRO Boompole might not be easy, but there is a simple solution. For a mic that already has an attached cable with a 3.5mm TRS connector, you can use an adapter like the Tera Grand 1/8" Stereo Female to 1/8" Stereo Female Adapter (B&H # TEA35F35F) to connect the mic's cable to the internal cable on the MICRO Boompole.

Will this be able to hold bigger mics? Thinking it might be a great add-on if it can hold onto my shotgun mic.

what would be a good case for this and a Rode videomicro II?
Asked by: Joseph
The Odyssey Vulcan Injection-Molded Utility Case (16 x 3.75 x 1.75" Interior) (BH #ODVU150302NF) would be an excellent case for the Zacuto MICRO Boompole and RODE VideoMicro II Ultracompact Camera-Mount Shotgun Microphone for Cameras and Smartphones.

Also curious, how would this connect to a Canon C70? It appears there's no XLR solution for this set up?
Asked by: Jeremy
The Zacuto MICRO Boompole uses a 3.5mm female connector, which can be connected to the 3.5mm input of the Canon C70 via the use of a standard 3.5mm cable like B&H # KOCMXRC30B.
