This VideoMic from Rode is a cost effective shotgun microphone that can easily be mounted on a video camera because it features an integrated shockmount that attaches to the camera"s shoe. The VideoMic is lightweight, and when mounting on a camera it does not appear in the frame. Fuzzy Windjammer is made of an artificial rabbit fur material for maximum protection against wind noise. Its super-cardioid polar pattern attenuates sounds from the sides. The result is a signal that sounds closer to the camera, even when shooting in noisy environments or at moderate distances.
