Jorge –
Great easy-to-use mic ( don’t forget to turn it on) the sound is significantly better than the built-in mic’s in cameras and phones and better than even all of the other external mic’s we’ve tried that were equally or lesser priced.
DellLaptop –
Nice Microphone, Good Price, Easy to use, Just what we needed.
Rita –
A little bigger than I anticipated but the quality
Cannot be denied. Love it
Coops5087 –
Great microphone. Fits really well and works even better.
MJCiNE –
Compact, easy to use and sounds great. Recommend if you need an affordable on board microphone.
Chicken25Wings –
Isolated sound very well and has a decent low end! Great battery life
MissP –
Great comic for the money, been very pleased with this purchase.
Arcon3 –
Great mic for run and gun scenarios. Used with a 5D Mark IV. Solid sound at reasonable distances. Self powered is a plus!
SanDiego –
This Rode mic adds professional audio quality to my Canon DSLR 7D and GoPro Hero8, which are both recognized for the high picture/video quality & equally terrible sound! This Rode mic uses a 9V battery & is a simple plug & play operation.
CollegeStudentReview –
Great accessory for vlog setup. I use this with Canon 70D and Joey tripod. However, the microphone does not come with batteries or instructions on how to operate. Would not recommend if it wasn’t on sale.
Cherry –
Great mic for the price
Highly recommended
I would purchase this again if I need another one.
AlfonsoR –
The sound quality you get with this mic its awesome, so clear! I love it
Pirika –
Happy with the product. Happy with the price. It is very simple and easy to use.
DblKK –
It works great, and definitly worth the price. But for just a bit more, you can get other high end brands or even rodes with more useful/needed features.
But if you need something available for immediate pickup, this will do.
A3photographer –
Great mic, great sound. Lightweight and easy set up
Dweatherly –
This mic is great! Picks up well, and has different sound options on the pack
Poorquality –
Battery is a pain to install and both buttons keep falling off. Low quality construction.
Ciyoung –
Great mic for web videos and B-roll cameras, Does what it needs to do, Used it on a feature film as a back up mic and did very well.
Mike –
Looks good and works great eitherfor a first timer or a pro.
Josh –
I have 2 of these and they work seamless for our wedding filming. Easy setup and the batteries last a long time. Also very good for presentation online as the audio quality is decent.
Geez –
Excellent quality mic, works well fits well my only complaint is that the battery door is tricky.
fhmgmt –
Great audio capture for all of our run and gun shoots.
Dappersons –
I purchased this then Rode discontinued and dropped it by $50. Wish I would’ve waited or purchased the knockoff Boya version
AirPods –

Dj12 –
Great mic works well no distortion so it’s worth it
jmuncy09 –
works very well with our canon camera we purchased at BB. good customer service and very knowledgable
DeonP –
Plugged mic in and no sound at all, changed the batteries 5 times, played with every setting and still nothing
MattRMedia –
This camera sounds amazing and overall, it’s really simple to work with. That said, the battery door is one of the worst product designs I’ve come across in a long time. I have worked with microphones from Shure, Sennheiser, AT, Neuman — Basically all of the major brands. Heck, I even own other microphones by Rode. I have never once before needed to Google how to put the cover back on a battery door because it was so unintuitive. That’s the ONLY reason It’s getting four stars.
Pullingees –
Very good mic for the money, we use it on one of our Alpha 6600 DSLR cams and love it
Wildvermont –
Quality is great, everything that I really needed.
SamDFWTX –
RODE compact shotgun microphone works as it is intended. I used for a mini video. The sound quality is very good; it’s definitely better than my original video without the use of RODE shotgun microphone.
The battery compartment needs some refinement. The enclosure is a little flimsy.
Jaycee –
Made my first video, the sound quality with this mic was great.easy to mount onto my canon camera.
ShotgunMic –
Best quality mic i ever have and i hope to upgrade to the next one in the near future . Thank you best buy for the assistance
eb12 –
Honestly the cheaper downgrade is as good if not better product
GwendolynC –
This mic has surpassed my expectations…the ease of use and the quality of sound is incredible…10 out of 10 and highly recommend!!!
KassandraW –
Easy to use, good sound quality. The only problem is the battery hatch.
Anthony –
The perfect addition to my DSLR video/photo kit. I’ve been using video mic pros for a while and they upgrade my dslr audio 10x.
FayeV –
A solid vlogging microphone. Easy to set up, good battery life and decent sound. In combination with Lavs, an excellent on the go microphone.
Kimmie –
I purchased this to go with my camcorder but I had to return it because it was not what I was looking for. It seemed like a nice mic, just not what I was looking for. I had to return it. Did not use it
Victor –
It does the basics, 20, 0, -10 decibels, it helps to have decent audio.
eakinnitire –
Mic had great quality, 10/10 would recommend. Battery last a long time.
Disappointed –
Mic had good pickup but poor quality. The off on switch has come off and lost before I knew it was off.
SantiagoC –
It was amazing with excellent sound and it was easy to connect to my camera. it also was easy to control the audio settings.
RyanG –
Not a bad microphone for the price! Does pick up a little bit of surrounding noise but nothing too noticeable.
NicothaGreat –
This mic picks up great sound. The quality that you receive in your footage is top tier!
DarrenD –
The quality of this mic is so amazing! It picks up quality directional audio.
JoshP –
Great quality i love how well it sounds it might be a little too big but very professional looking
Mark –
It’s a good mic but at that price rang their are better options.
ajbrutico –
This is a fantastic microphone. It works great with my cameras, and you can even buy a road adapter to use this with a USB-C connection, which I have done with my Osmo 3. So either way youre covered! No need to use built-in mics anymore.
