The RØDE's VIDEOMIC GO lightweight on-camera condenser microphone is designed to be small and light, and it produces clear, sharp, directional audio with exceptional simplicity of use. Its small pickup area concentrates sound squarely in front of the microphone and decreases background noise, ensuring that your topic is free of distractions. The built-in Rycote® Lyre® shock mount protects your microphone from bumps and vibrations that would otherwise obstruct your sound. The VideoMic GO doesn't have any difficult switches or settings, and it's powered by your camera's external microphone input, so you'll never miss a spectacular photo.
