  • Good sound -- much better than the built in mic on my camera
Style: VideoMic GO II
I recently had occasion to videotape a concert performance. I mounted this mic on a boom about 1 meter above the camera in the audience, and pointing toward the stage. Not really a pro setup, but definitely way better than using the mic on the camera. It picked up just a little bit of the crowd noise to give the recording that 'in front of a live crowd' flavor. Overall sound quality: very good. A good deal, but clearly, if you wanted to spend more, you could get higher quality. The 'wash' from the on-stage monitors muddied the sound a tad, but that could easily have been handled by moving the whole rig back a few more feet. ... show more

  • Pound-for-Pound, A Total BEAST!
Style: VideoMic GO II
Just received my Rode Videomic Go 2 a few days ago and I am absolutely impressed! I already have the Rode Videomic which is an older Rode mic but still offers high quality sound. However, it is larger, more bulky, and requires a 9v battery. I also use a small sound board with xlr Shure SM 57's and 58's for high quality sound. Pound-for-pound, the Rode Videomic Go 2 competes with the sound quality of more expensive mics and more expansive setups. It is truly a big bang-for-the-buck beast! In addition to its competitive, high quality sound, its functionality is simple and its versatility is diverse. Combined with the free Rode Connect and Rode Reporter apps for PC, Mac, Android, and Iphone, the Videomic Go 2 offers the same high quality audio across a variety of platforms and devices with little to no hassle or set up. I have already used this one single mic on-camera, with my S21 Ultra smartphone, on my Tab S7, and my desktop and each set up has provided high quality audio. Versatility. The USB C and 3.5mm outputs make all that possible. At $100, some may not consider this to be a budget friendly option. However, considering the level of quality audio across the various use cases this single mic offers, it's definitely a value. AND, if you look around, you might get lucky and catch a deal. I got mine for $79 which made it an even greater value. Can you get better sound quality from other mics? Sure you can, but they won't have the versatility and you'll be out considerably more than a $100. And how much better will the sound really be? Hmmmmm. (c:] I highly recommend the Rode Videomic Go 2. Hope this helps some folks out there. Go creatives, Go! (c:] ... show more

  • I am stunned at how good this is
Style: VideoMic GO II
As a public information officer for first responders in my county, I recently used this during a recent wild land fire plugged directly into my GH5 to record quick interviews, update videos, community meetings, and guerilla-style filming. I did no work with it in any treated spaces, and the microphone was no closer than 6 feet away from the subjects at any time. I filmed one to three people in the videos. As long as I stayed out of the wind, the audio was clear. It did a good job of rejecting off-axis room noise and other off-axis sound sources. Freq response seemed a bit low on the bass side, flat through the middle, a little high in the mid-highs, and reasonable in the treble end. As to the suspension mount, the camera and tripod got bumped around in some of the recordings, and the bumps never were picked up by the mic. So I'd say the suspension did its job. The only real problem I had was when I tried to film in the wind. While the audio was usable from a run-and-gun quick release format, it would never have passed muster if I needed a clear and clean audio recording. But I've ordered a dead cat to take care of that in the future. I never used the USB interface, so I can't comment on that. Overall, I'm surprised and super pleased with the VideoMic Go II. ... show more

  • Great sound quality
Style: VideoMic GO II
Definitely a notable improvement in sound quality. Took me a while to get it set up, though, because you need a specific cord to use it. It will not work with a standard 3.5mm cord with a lightning adapter, or a standard USB-C to lightning cable. You have to get the one from Rode in order for it to work, and it does not come with the mic. Another $20 or so on top of the price of the mic. Just would have been good to know so I could have got it the same time as the mic. ... show more

  • Great mic, but audio cable busted(Edited)
Style: VideoMic GO II
Really like the Rode video mic, the sound quality is great and it's easy to carry around! However, after awhile, the audio cable included in the set doesn't work anymore. Kind of sucks, because it's been working beautifully until that point. Edit: Sorry, after a few tests, the 3.5mm audio does still work! ... show more

  • Impressive
Style: VideoMic GO II
For the money this mic does great. There’s no input adjustment which may be a turn off but I’m sure those who need that know what they’re looking for. The setup is a breeze as it’s plug n play and produces great sound. This definitely stepped up my videos giving me a sound with real texture and no pingyness. Would definitely recommend this for any beginner or amateur or especially for bloggers looking for a great sounding mic without the hassle of eqs or set up. Just plug it in and go! ... show more
