Rode VideoMic Directional Shotgun directional microphone (Electronics)

Customer Review

I feel that after the sound of the voice, recorded in a quiet room, not the one I had hoped for.
It lacks the depth and the rich. The heights do not cut me. The directional function leaves nothing to be desired.
Have me on top of that have to buy a phone recorder to decent shots to the excellent video
material that can offer the 600d to produce. So now use the Rode in H1 of Zoom.

NB at the Canon EOS 600D, the Rode sounds alone miserable. This is, however, less than the microphone itself at the
internal AGC of camera. Through this "Automatic Gain Control" the noise is enormous. Unfortunately, you can not AGC of 600d
manually deactivate - also a known software (ML) provides currently no workaround to this problem (though works
at 550, or 7d).

What surprised me a little: The packaging of the microphone was not sealed and I had somehow the impression that I
not the first consumer was that it unpacked (the factory tests disregarded). Hm. Who knows.
