    When it works it's great

    This is a great concept, record improved audio while operating on a usb power source. The plug on mine was loose and I recorded endless test videos to discover that it works best while being pressed firmly into the camera throughout recording. Not practical for any use! I'm disappointed but decided to play with different methods of making this one work vs returning it for a new one (my choice,i know). This failure is not an isolated event, do some research, these are more often defective than not. I figured I would just end up with another malfunctioning accessory so i should work it out. No fix yet! My next step is to squeeze the plug gently to snug it up.

    Bulky and expensive

    The people at GoPro really missed the mark here. This wasn't necessary on previous cameras. Way too bulky and way too expensive. Aside from poor design it does work.

    A MUST HAVE

    We have the GoPro Camera and for recording audio to an external camera, this is what you need.

    Works great

    It's a chunky piece of equipment but it works great and does what it needs to.

    Could be better

    It probably couldn't be worse; however, it works - most of the time. I have the Hero 5 black and it's a cool camera but boy does it come with some glitchy behavior. I use this adapter with the cheap Rode Micro and it works fine when it does work. I have to turn the camera on without the mic plugged in and not using the record button but the mode button. Then, once it's on, I can plug the mic in. THEN i can start recording. I don't know why but just clicking record to turn the camera on with the mic already plugged in i don't get any sound. Maybe they'll fix it with an update but it's already too late for that when the first time i went to use this it turned out to be an entire video session (one of my band's gigs) completely lost. Can't get that show back. Also, I'm hoping a lot of gadgets start graduating to USB -C ... It's just a better connection. Bottom line - it pretty much works and their's no work around other than using an external recorder which I also use but having the on-camera mic is nice too.

Questions & Answers

  • Is there any way to use this - or some other microphone adaptor - with the Hero 5 Black while it is in its mount?

    Yep, take the port door off. It's no longer water proof in any way but if you want to use a Mic that shouldn't matter. Keep in mind, the Gopro Mic adapter is a terrible product. Just look at the reviews and complaints. I did and bought one anyway, knowing what I was getting into, and because there is no option yet. There is a constant clicking noise in my audio when I use it depending on the position of the cord and plug going into the port. If I'm careful I can eliminate it by pressing the plug in while recording. Good luck!

  • Do I need this adapter to use a mic with the GoPro Hero 5 black edition? Can I just use the Microphone and connect it directly?

    You will need the adapter. There is no 3.5 mm audio jack on the Hero 5. You will need to plug the adapter into the usb-c port to create a line in for your mic to get better sound for your videos. You could also just use your phone as an external audio source to use the mic you have and edit the sound together in post production. The adapter is a ridiculous and bulky piece of tech that negates the small and highly portable features of the gopro camera.

  • So basically does this plug into a GoPro on one end and the the mic on the other?

    Yes, one end is usb-c male and the other is usb-c female and 3.5mm female, but beware, keep your box and all contents incl as you may need to return it several times before you get one that works properly. The plug is loose and causes various noises to be heard on recorded audio. Don't just take my word for it research this product thoroughly. *** For Gopro hero 5 black microphone adapter only, I haven't owned the older models***

    Answered by Matt
  • Is this adapter small enough to fit into the session?

    yes, i use it in my hero 5 session. The adapter is not crazy big but it has a right angle connector so you can let it hang up or down
