Rode Microphones VideoMic Pro-R+ Compact Directional On-Camera Microphone

The Rode VideoMic Pro+ is a true shotgun microphone designed for use with camcorders, DSLR cameras and portable audio recorders as a source of primary and reference audio. It provides professional broadcast quality audio all in an easily removable shock mount.

Rycote Lyre

With the Rycote Lyre suspension system, the VideoMic Pro+ provides dynamic sound isolation to cancel out unwanted rumble noise and vibrations. The Rycote Lyre suspension will never wear out, sag, or snap and was built for reliability and durability. A super-cardioid polar pattern focuses on the subject in front of the camera to ensure that surrounding audio is minimized.

Automatic Power Function

The power control settings are located conveniently towards the back of the camera so you can always remember to turn on your audio when you record. The controls are simple and easy to use and will have you recording high quality audio for up to 70 hours. The automatic power function (with plug-in power availability) is perfect for the run-and-gun shooter, automatically turning the microphone off when unplugged from the camera. The VideoMic Pro+ can be powered by the all-new and included Rode LB-1 Lithium-Ion Rechargeable Battery, 2 x AA Batteries or continuously via Micro USB.

Digital Switching

Digital switching gives you the ultimate capture of the audio signal at the source, reducing post-production and editing times. 2-Stage High Pass Filter reduces low frequencies such as rumble from traffic or air conditioning while 3-Stage Gain Control, with +20dB function, is designed to improve audio quality on DSLR or mirrorless cameras. The High Frequency Boost will boost high frequencies enhancing detail and clarity in the recording and the Safety Channel helps ensure the signal does not clip when unexpected spikes occur
