It does the job

For near camera video recording is fine.

Rode VideoMicro

Is amazing! The best mark in the world ! I love RODE

Nice and compact

Suprisingly good low frequency respond!

Tiny and powerful mic.

Useful and compact microphone. Thanks to its size it's very good for travelling. Quality of the audio is much better then just with an integrated microphone of my camera. Even in windy weather its doing fine. And the price is very good.

Sounds great.

Bought it for my canon camera to record some live shows. I can get a great sound out of tha mic!

It's just fu*king great

Great product

I use it for recording all kinds of videos with my Canon EOS M50. It really improves the sound quality SO much and I am so happy with this purchase. I also use it while hiking so the small size is also a great advantage for me. Very happy with this purchase.

best for vlogger

this product help me a lot easy to use and amazing quality and pair price.i should buy more of this in the future for my other stuff.

Best value for money

Metal quality construction, small and light, very good sound and all that for under 50 euros? Nothing beats that!

Great for run and gun shooting

Use:

on top of GH3, plugged in directly

plugged into to Zoom H5 using Rode VXLR+ adapter, for boom pole micing

Pros:

Cheap

Low noise floor, probably lower than on-board camera mic pre-amps

No extra battery needed

Solid enough build quality

Cons:

attaching the cable to the camera stand mount is an additional part of the shockmount, and needed otherwise the mic will lean back and forth.

Mic picks up some focusing noise, even with shockmount.

Big Sound in Small Size

I can't praise this microphone enough. It's so easy to use and returns stunning audio quality with very little effort. It's lightweight and compact design makes it a no brainer to take out to any video shoot whether you're an amateur or professional.

My only criticism would be of the holder for the microphone. If you move around a lot, it moves a lot as well and some of that movement gets translated into sound disturbance in the recording. I would have loved it to be a bit more rigid.
