RODE VideoMic GO II On-Camera Mic Rental in Surrey, BC
A small shotgun mic that sits on your camera's shoe and picks up what it's pointed at, so it's a clear step up from the built-in mic for run-and-gun, vlogs and quick interviews. It needs no battery: it runs on plug-in power from a camera's 3.5 mm input, and its USB-C output records straight into a phone or computer. The mic itself weighs 33 g. For sit-down dialogue, a boomed Rode NTG4+ sounds cleaner.
In the case

Good to know
- It plugs into a camera's 3.5 mm mic input and runs on the camera's plug-in power, so there's no battery to charge.
- For a phone or computer, it connects over USB-C, which needs a separate USB cable.
- It has no XLR output, so an XLR recorder input needs a 3.5 mm to XLR cable.
