  1. 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.

  2. DellLaptop

    Nice Microphone, Good Price, Easy to use, Just what we needed.

  3. Rita

    A little bigger than I anticipated but the quality
    Cannot be denied. Love it

  4. Coops5087

    Great microphone. Fits really well and works even better.

  5. MJCiNE

    Compact, easy to use and sounds great. Recommend if you need an affordable on board microphone.

  6. Chicken25Wings

    Isolated sound very well and has a decent low end! Great battery life

  7. MissP

    Great comic for the money, been very pleased with this purchase.

  8. Arcon3

    Great mic for run and gun scenarios. Used with a 5D Mark IV. Solid sound at reasonable distances. Self powered is a plus!

  9. 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.

  10. 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.

  11. Cherry

    Great mic for the price
    Highly recommended
    I would purchase this again if I need another one.

  12. AlfonsoR

    The sound quality you get with this mic its awesome, so clear! I love it

  13. Pirika

    Happy with the product. Happy with the price. It is very simple and easy to use.

  14. 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.

  15. A3photographer

    Great mic, great sound. Lightweight and easy set up

  16. Dweatherly

    This mic is great! Picks up well, and has different sound options on the pack

  17. Poorquality

    Battery is a pain to install and both buttons keep falling off. Low quality construction.

  18. 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.

  19. Mike

    Looks good and works great eitherfor a first timer or a pro.

  20. 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.

  21. Geez

    Excellent quality mic, works well fits well my only complaint is that the battery door is tricky.

  22. fhmgmt

    Great audio capture for all of our run and gun shoots.

  23. Dappersons

    I purchased this then Rode discontinued and dropped it by $50. Wish I would’ve waited or purchased the knockoff Boya version

  24. AirPods

    Great item, serves its purpose and I personally recommend i

  25. 06141974

    if you are looking for great sound for you videos
    you need to purchase this mic

  26. Dj12

    Great mic works well no distortion so it’s worth it

  27. jmuncy09

    works very well with our canon camera we purchased at BB. good customer service and very knowledgable

  28. DeonP

    Plugged mic in and no sound at all, changed the batteries 5 times, played with every setting and still nothing

  29. 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.

  30. Pullingees

    Very good mic for the money, we use it on one of our Alpha 6600 DSLR cams and love it

  31. Wildvermont

    Quality is great, everything that I really needed.

  32. 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.

  33. Jaycee

    Made my first video, the sound quality with this mic was great.easy to mount onto my canon camera.

  34. 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

  35. eb12

    Honestly the cheaper downgrade is as good if not better product

  36. 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!!!

  37. KassandraW

    Easy to use, good sound quality. The only problem is the battery hatch.

  38. 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.

  39. 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.

  40. 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

  41. Victor

    It does the basics, 20, 0, -10 decibels, it helps to have decent audio.

  42. eakinnitire

    Mic had great quality, 10/10 would recommend. Battery last a long time.

  43. Disappointed

    Mic had good pickup but poor quality. The off on switch has come off and lost before I knew it was off.

  44. 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.

  45. RyanG

    Not a bad microphone for the price! Does pick up a little bit of surrounding noise but nothing too noticeable.

  46. NicothaGreat

    This mic picks up great sound. The quality that you receive in your footage is top tier!

  47. DarrenD

    The quality of this mic is so amazing! It picks up quality directional audio.

  48. JoshP

    Great quality i love how well it sounds it might be a little too big but very professional looking

  49. Mark

    It’s a good mic but at that price rang their are better options.

  50. 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.
