I love this video mic. I use it with a Panasonic Lumix GH3 and it sounds really good. It's a little big for a DSLR camera but the audio quality is fantastic. When I really want to enhance the audio recorded from this mic, I will export the audio that's connected to the video file from Final Cut Pro...

An excellent alternative to the generally poor captive microphones on dv and hd cameras.

Well made; good sound quality and well isolated from the camera

Somewhat short battery life and it doesn't make a good handle

"For years I have used an older microphone on my video camera and even the same old mic on my Canon 5D Mark II. I thought the quality was alright until i asked someone to do some professional editing. Comments I received back weren't great about the sound quality.

Love this...easy on the sounds too :)

Incredible sound compared to most higher end external mics, best bang for the buck! Super lightweight despite its plastic frame and mount it is incredibly strong and a huge step up from your cameras built in microphone! Five stars!

Need is the mother of all invention. This was what made a top notch company like Rode to create a lightweight, durable, and immensely high quality microphone for the miniDV camera. Peter Freedman, Mr. Rode himself, ?
