RØDE VideoMic Pro Rycote Camera Shotgun Microphone

General

The Rode VideoMic Pro Rycote is the improved version of the very successful VideoMic Pro. Since its introduction in 2011, this powerful directional microphone has become one of the most popular camera microphones on the market. Many professionals and amateurs who have a video camera or a single-lens reflex camera, use the VideoMic Pro. Its name already gives away that this updated model comes with a new mounting system: a Rycote Lyre shock mount. This shock mount is one of the best shock mounts available. They've also improved the capsule, which is now extra sensitive and produces much less low-end noise.

VideoMic Pro Rycote Lyre: more professional than ever

Thanks to the Rycote Lyre shock mount, vibrations don't get a chance of reaching the camera microphone. This results in exceptionally clean and therefore very professional recordings. Another advantage of the Lyre is that it's incredibly durable, thanks to its high-quality construction. This, together with the improved capsule, makes the VideoMic Pro an incredibly reliable mic that's capable of recording more dynamics. Slide on your camera's shoe and connect it to the 3.5mm jack input. It's also possible to mount it on a boom pole with a 3/8-inch thread.
