Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the excellent sound quality and ease of use of the VideoMic On-Camera Shotgun Microphone. Many also appreciate its price point, though some find the microphone's size to be a bit large for certain applications. A few users noted the need for a 9V battery as a minor inconvenience.

    I bought this mic to help alleviate the echoes from filming inside gymnasiums. It does a great job of canceling out unwanted noise and focusing on the subject. I had to get the powered mic as my Canon Vixia doesn't have a powered port and Battery life is really great too.

    It does the job if you have a horrible native mic, but sound quality is indistinguishable from voice memos recorded on the iPhone X. If you’re looking for higher grade audio, i’d Recommend investing a little more and getting a better mic
