A True Shotgun Microphone
The Rode VideoMic Pro is a true shotgun microphone designed for use with camcorders, DSLR cameras, and portable audio recorders as a source of primary and reference audio.
At the heart of the Rode VideoMic Pro is a high-resolution 1/2" condenser capsule that provides broadcast-quality audio via a 3.5mm minijack connector (outputting the mono signal to both left and right channels). A super-cardioid polar pattern ensures that surrounding audio is minimized, and your recording is focused on the subject in front of the camera. Generally, the VideoMic Pro improves the audio quality perfect for video production and vlogging.
An innovative suspension system separates the VideoMic Pro capsule and electronics from its mount, providing isolation from external physical factors that may cause unwanted rumble and vibrations in the microphone. A lightweight and flexible yet robust multi-strand cable provides significantly lower noise transference than traditional audio cable while ensuring a high-definition signal.
Easy to Use, Easy to Operate
Easily accessible on the rear face of the microphone are the power, filter, and level controls. In addition to this Rode VideoMic Pro's native 40Hz-20kHz response is a selectable high-pass filter at 80Hz is available, which will prevent low-end noise such as air conditioners and traffic from being recorded.
Below these controls are the level settings, which attenuate or boost the recorded level as required. The -10dB level attenuation (or PAD) is ideal for recording loud sound sources, such as live music, motorsport, or interviews where the subject is very close to the camera. The +20dB level boost is designed for use with DSLR cameras, allowing the user to reduce the camera's preamp level (or mic-input level), effectively reducing the amount of noise generated by the camera's comparatively low quality audio circuitry.
Compatible with Most Cameras
This Rode microphone uses a standard-sized shoe mount for on-camera use and features a 3/8" thread in the base of the mount for easy boom pole mounting, which makes it easy to adapt to your needs. Plus, the VideoMic pro is battery-powered and provides over 70 hours of recording from a single 9V battery so you can use it for a long time even when shooting outdoors.
The Rode VideoMic is designed and made in Australia and covered by Rode Microphones' industry-leading 10-year warranty.
