Blink Camera Audio Surveillance

I did one test so far but under very challenging circumstances. I went to a windy rooftop of an apartment building which also has a large exhaust machine for the hallway air circulation and is quite noisy. I shot the same subject at the same distance, about 8 feet, with the Saramonic 900 B2 and then another clip with the RODE VideoMic NTG Hybrid Analog/USB Microphone. Both clip where then put on DaVinci Studio with the audio, voice Isolation switch on full. Both were extremely good and so close that the shotgun mic wins in the sense of doing run and gun stuff on the street, it wouldn't be worth the extra effort of clipping the Blink on the subject. You get a quality audio with the RODE and it cancels side and rear noise so well, that when you add the audio isolate its amazing even under the trying circumstances of the rooftop I used. The Blink 900 seemed not to have quite as much bass in the voice as the Rode but was obviously much dryer than the Rode since the mic was close to the subject. In fact I used the Lav on the subject and just used the cube on myself without bothering with the lav for me. Both sounded about the same, which is great. But it did seem like the Blink has a low end cut, or it could be the mics. My question to BH would be, if I bought much better Lav mics, would the Tx Rx manage the better sound to the camera? In any case, this is a fantastic piece of kit and if you have this and the Rode you should be equipped for any circumstance you may need.

This is exactly what I needed to get my old surveillance camera back up and running. Thanks.

I bought this to use on my Blink security camera base unit. It is a perfect fit for my needs.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased to back up my blink camera works as required!

I'm using it for concerts, where it improves footage that previously looked more like a surveillance camera!

I bought this after my full-frame Sony went on the blink. Grandkids were coming and I needed a camera fast but, thinking my 'good' camera could be repaired, decided I didn't want to spend a lot of money on an interim replacement. After a couple of weeks of shooting I've come to love it. It's light, fast, colors are true and the dynamic range is very good for a camera at this price point. I've paired it with a Sigma 56mm 1.4 Art Lens and a Tamron 15-200mm zoom and am getting great photos.

The Saramonic Blink 500 ProX B2 2-Person Digital Camera-Mount Wireless Omni Lavalier Microphone System (Black, 2.4 GHz) offers pro quality sound at a great price.

Can not ask anything better than this. Work perfect with my desktop and my camera surveillance system 2 in 1 monitor

I am using this product in my surveillance camera box and i am most happy with it .I think it dose the job better than the green one that was in the box before.

This very flexible remote allows the camera to make images with you at the controls or in your absence. It is excellent for remote surveillance.
