Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. Can you connect this to an iPad for capturing audio while shooting video?

A: I use mine with an iPhone 7, via two adapters: an aftermarket TRS to TRRS and Apple's TRRS to Lightning. It works great and I couldn't discern a difference in quality between recording with a Zoom H1 and the iPhone.

Q: 2. The mount is positioned sideways when attached to the camera hot shoe. How can the mic be rotated so that it faces forward?

A: Hold the microphone head and body firmly while gently twisting the shoe portion into position.

Q: 3. Can this microphone connect withOUT an adapter to my D610 or my D500?

A: This mic can connect directly to any camera with a 3.5mm external mic input, such as the Nikon D610 or the Nikon D500.

Q: 4. How does this mic get power from the camera? Must it be attached to the camera's hot shoe to work? Or, does the power come to it thru its cable connector? Will it work if attached to B&H# VECB4800?

A: It gets its power from the Mic jack. It can be used off camera like the Shoe V-Bracket ,Vello CB-4800 Triple Shoe V-Bracket (6.5 Wide)B&H # VECB4800 Mfr # CB-4800http://bhpho.to/1jnwCuW

Q: 5. This is a relatively dated mic. For my purposes, I need a high quality reliable way to record high end piano performances...looking to pair with Nikon Z6. Can this mic handle it or does anyone recommend another brand? Thank you.

A: The Nikon ME-1 Stereo Microphone is a great quality solution to consider for this application. Some other great options to consider would be the Azden SMX-30 and the Audio-Technica AT8024.

Q: 6. Hi. It this comp with nikon 7500?

A: Yes that's the camera I use this microphone with.

Q: 7. Can the ME-1 be used on a Nikon D810 when the built in camera flash is being used in the commander mode for off camera flash control?

A: DONT KNOW I USE ONLY D7100 NIKON CAMERA

Q: 8. is the mount required in order to use this microphone for the nikon D5300?

A: It is a standard Nikon standard shoe mount. No special mount needed. You just slide it into your hot shoe on your Nikon camera and connect the 3.5mm mini-plug to your Nikon camera or Canon(I haven't tried it) etc, but if you have a flash, etc you must either remove it or get a bracket so that you can mount both your flash and mic at the sometime. It works great on my Nikon D5200. But remember if you use Nikon TTL-flash, your flash will need to communicate to the camera through the shoe mount. The mic does not communicate any other info to the camera than the miniplug. The mic will also work on other brands of cameras, camcorders, computers etc, equipped with a 3.5mm mini plug/jack which is most. The 3.5 miniplug/jack is pretty common in electronics today. It generates enough signal strength so it need no batteries. Ron

Q: 9. Is it compatible with D850? I did not see this model on the list.

A: Yes

Q: 10. Is this mic compatible with Nikon 1 S1?

A: I would say 99.99% yes. Does the Nikon 1 S1 has a stereo pin jack, that is so ubiquitous among the electronic today? I would call Nikon on their 800 number just to double check, the call is on Nikon's dime so it won't cost you anything. The mic will probably work on any other equipment beside Nikon camera equipment if they have this jack.
