Rode Videomic vs NTG-2 series
Need a camera mount mic. My Canon A1 has the useless molded mic holder like most other cameras.
I need the hotshoe to mount my videolight so it doesn't appear that I can use the videomic Question Is: How much handling, body noise does the NTG series pick up? It seems more suited to boom pole mounting with a shockmount than on- camera mounting. anyone have any experience with this? thx |
I use the NTG-1. It's pretty hot, but the rubber band shockmount works pretty well to eliminate "touch noise". I use the shoe mount but they make one to adapt to clamps:

ok, it looks like the barrel inserts into the plastic mic clamp on the camera, keeping the hot shoe free? It says for sony and panasonic cameras but I would imagine it would fit my Canon as well.
Thx for the response |
Please take a look at The J-Rod. It is a solution that many people have found works great. In addition it gives you the option of having 3 mounts to keep a radio receiver,mic, and a light onboard. See the link below !
