RODE VideoMicro Condenser Microphone

The VideoMicro is a compact microphone designed to improve the audio quality of your videos. It incorporates a high-quality cardioid condenser microphone capsule for great quality audio recordings when used with a wide range of cameras. A directional microphone, the VideoMicro reduces distracting peripheral sounds and focusses on the audio in front of the camera. Its pickup is more forgiving than RODEʼs other on-camera microphones providing a more natural sound when recording indoors. Perfect for capturing incredible audio to accompany inspiring vision. The microphone body is made from aluminum, giving it a high level of RF rejection, and is finished in RODEʼs high-grade ceramic anti-glare black coating. Included with the VideoMicro is a camera shoe mount featuring a Rycote Lyre shock mount. Featuring a suspension structure composed of a hard-wearing thermoplastic, it is far more effective at minimising unwanted vibrations, handling and cable-borne noise than traditional elastic suspensions. Virtually indestructible, the Rycote Lyre will never sag, snap, wear out or require rethreading to maintain its effectiveness. Also included is the WS9 synthetic furry wind shield with foam inner cell, designed for use in outdoor scenarios where wind and environmental noise can inhibit recordings. Optionally available is the RODE SC7, a TRS to TRRS cable that allows the VideoMicro to be used with smartphones, to capture crystal clear, directional sound for video and video applications such as Periscope.

Compact size and lightweight - only 80mm (3ʼ) long and 42gm (1.5oz) All-metal microphone body No battery required (powered by camera plug-in power - min 3V) Rycote® Lyre® shock mount included Deluxe furry windshield included Designed and manufactured in Australia

The new RODE NTG-2 is a lightweight condenser shotgun microphone, designed
for professional applications within the film, video, television and production industries.
The NTG-2 provides a balanced low impedance output stage and operates either
from an internal 1.5 V battery (AA) or 48 V to the P48 standard. A wide bandwidth
and controlled polar response coupled with low noise SMT electronics, makes the
NTG-2 the perfect choice for film, video engineering and voice-over work. The NTG-2
is extremely lightweight making it ideal for mounting directly to video cameras or on
boom poles.
The NTG-2 comes complete with mount and windshield.The windscreen effectively
suppresses wind noise when recording outdoors in moderate conditions.
