At 18 cm long, the VideoMic GO is an easy-to-use mono on-camera microphone that can be used to enhance the sound quality of video soundtracks considerably. It can be pushed on to the hot shoe of the camera in the blink of an eye, secured using the included spiral cable and is then ready for use straight away - no switch, no settings, no battery and conveniently lightweight at just 73 g!
The red Rycote double ''Lyre'', a special thermoplastic shock mount, ensures optimum decoupling of the VideoMic GO from the camera. This prevents structure-borne noise or handling noises from being picked up by the sensitive 1/2'' condenser capsule of the microphone. The VideoMic Go can also be operated separately from the camera on a stand, with a handle or a boom. There is a 3/8'' thread in the base of the bracket for this purpose.
