DIDN'T EVEN FIT MY CAMERA
||Posted . Owned for more than 2 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For some reason the bottom fitting did not fit my Sony a7iii. For that it is a 3 star product and a tough investment... Otherwise, the sound quality is relatively good for the price. The value is there but the dang thing didn't fit.

You Get What You Pay For
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It works better than the camera's on-board microphone, but that's about it. The pickup pattern behind the shotgun is strong enough to make the quality lower than what I had hoped. I'm able to use my AT2035 in the same positions and get better quality than this Rode.

Great for video

Lots of Audio Interference
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I think the mic is not properly shielded. It clicks a lot and I realize that the clicking is due to other wireless signals. It seems like anything on the 2.4GHz spectrum will cause audio interference. Recording using my iPhone on WiFi, I would need to turn off my WiFi and Bluetooth. But then I move around the house and it picks up interference from other wireless devices. This mic is not made for the mobile/WiFi era. Also I had to buy a TRRS converter cable to make this work with my laptop and my iPhone.
