Saramonic - 'Vmic Mark II On-Camera Directional Shotgun Microphone'
battery-powered directional on-camera shotgun microphoneThe Saramonic Vmic Mark II is a game-changer for content creators, filmmakers, journalists, and vloggers seeking a significant leap in audio quality for their DSLRs, mirrorless cameras, video cameras, and recorders. This battery-powered directional on-camera shotgun microphone is engineered to deliver nothing less than broadcast-quality sound. With its sleek design and powerful features, the Vmic Mark II offers a directional cardioid polar pattern that excels at capturing sound directly in front while effectively reducing unwanted noise from the sides and rear. Featuring ultra-low noise electronics, it ensures your audio recordings are rich in detail and clarity. Plus, its thoughtful array of versatile features makes it a must-have tool for various shooting scenarios, all while staying budget-friendly and outperforming more expensive competitors.
Built-in Audio Control
High-Quality Sound and Enhanced ControlThe Vmic Mark II features an array of selectable audio controls allowing users to tailor the mic’s sound and performance to always get optimum sound. It features a 3-stage gain control with a +20dB boost switch for achieving ultra-clean gain on cameras with noisy preamps, 0dB for high-quality preamps, and -10dB pad for cleanly capturing loud sounds without distortion. A 150Hz high-pass filter eliminates low-frequency noise and rumble caused by HVAC systems, wind or footsteps that can ruin a recording. A +6dB high-frequency boost enhances vocal intelligibility and compensates for lost frequencies when using a furry windscreen, like the VMIC-WS (sold separately). All of the controls are easy to use and easy to see, even in low light conditions.
Durable Metal Construction
Rugged and AdaptableBuilt with durable metal construction, the Vmic Mark II will handily survive the demanding world of video production. An impressively robust and virtually indestructible integrated shock mount isolates it from unwanted vibration noise and includes a camera-shoe mount with metal 1/4”-20 thread. Allowing you to easily mount it to cameras, boom poles, stands, camera cages and tripods with ease.
Built-in Monitoring
Headphone Monitoring and Expanded ConnectivityA built-in headphone output on the Vmic Mark II enables you to hear your sound, even when your camera lacks a headphone jack. And the 3.5mm camera output includes a short, coiled output cable to connect to cameras, mixers and recorders. But because the cable is removable, it allows users to use any 3.5mm TRS output cable in its place. Attach a longer cable for use on a boom pole, use a 3.5mm to Lightning (Saramonic SR-C2000) to connect to iPhones and iPads, 3.5mm to USB-C (Saramonic SR-C2001) to connect to Android smartphones, tablets and computers, or a 3.5mm to TRRS (SR-PMC2) for smartphones, tablets and modern computers with a headphone port.
