Ultra Compact Microphone. The RODE VideoMicro Ultracompact Camera-Mount Shotgun Microphone features an all-metal, 3-inch housing with a cardioid capsule pickup pattern to help improve and focus your sound recordings without adding heft to your camera rig.
Full Frequency Response Range. This mic’s frequency response range is 100 Hz to 20 kHz. Output is via a 3.5mm TRS cable, and this cable also provides the only power supply available on this device. Please note that you’ll need a camera that provides plug-in power to use this microphone and that this mic does not have an option for separate battery power.
Integrated Shock Mount & Included Windscreen. The integrated shock mount conveniently mounts the RODE Video Micro onto any camera accessory shoe while effectively suppressing handling and vibration noise. Additionally, an included furry windshield cuts down on wind interference when shooting outdoors.
