Rode VideoMic-R Microphone
The Rode VideoMic-R Microphone is a professional shotgun microphone with an integrated Rycote shock mounting system designed for use with consumer video cameras and personal audio recorders.
The Rode VideoMic-R Microphone comes with an integrated Rycote Lyre based shock mounting system that isolates the Rode VideoMic capsule and electronics from its all-metal shoe mount, providing isolation from external physical factors that may cause unwanted rumble and vibrations in the microphone. Constructed from a single piece of hard-wearing thermoplastic, the Lyre® provides superior acoustic suspension to traditional elastic solutions, and will never wear out, sag or snap.
Its standard sized shoe mount also includes a 3/8" thread in the base for easy mounting on a boom pole or stand.
By employing a super-cardioid polar pattern the Rode VideoMic becomes highly directional, focusing on the subject in front of the camera, and minimising any surrounding sounds.
In addition to the microphone's native 40Hz-20kHz response a selectable high-pass filter at 80Hz is available, which will prevent low end noise such as air conditioners and traffic from being recorded.
A -10dB and -20dB level attenuation (or PAD), selectable from inside the battery compartment, allows recording of loud sound sources, such as live music or motorsport.
The Rode VideoMic directional on-camera microphone is designed in Australia and covered by Rode Microphones' industry leading 10 year warranty.
