Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. will this have an internal cable? can it carry a blimp with ntg2

A: This boom pole does not have an internal cable. It comes with a 3/8 of an inch boom pole thread that will be able to support a shock mount or a blimp with that same thread. 3/8 of an inch is a standard size when dealing with shotgun style microphones.

Q: 2. Can the Lyre Mounts be moved closer together for a small mic, like the Sanken CS-M1?

A: Yes, the lyre mounts on the RODE SM4-R Suspension Shockmount can be moved closer together. There are two additional threads inside of the open slots which can be used to attach the lyres.

Q: 3. Will this work with the Zoom H1?

A: Yep. use it that way all the time. Works great.

Q: 4. Do the sections on it lock?

A: Yup. Super lightweight, pretty sturdy. The locking joints get a little stuck at times, but for the price, it works.

Q: 5. How many inches long is the windshield - I have a shotgun mic (Azden SMG 2x) that is 10 inches long? Will this windshield cover it?

A: This windshield is actually just the cover. Its is not a shell. It was specifically designed for the rode blimp. It is possible that this cover might fit over a different shell but if you just have the shotgun mic then no. It won't. You'll need the ride blimp as well.

Q: 6. Is the Rode Podcaster Mac compatible (without any additional hardware or software)?

A: Yes it is. I plugged it into my early 2008 Mac Pro. I forget if I had to go into Preferences and select the mic as my input or if it did it for me. I do recommend you use a good set of headphones/earbuds to make sure you hear how you sound on the mic. Just to make sure everything is good. BTW I recommend BSW's Pop Filter: BSW REPOP - Pop Filter for RE20 Microphone. It's super small, and stylish while very functional. IDK if B&H carries them. If they do snag it up. If not, go to bswusa site and run a search for the RE20 Pop Filter

Q: 7. Will this boompole receive and conceal a long cord needed to connect mic to camera? Or do you have to find some other way to keep the cord out of the way?

A: Yes it will. It has an opening at the tip and the collar comes off to pass the XLR end through. It also has a removable bottom with cable slot. Unfortunately the cable comes out of the bottom instead of the side so resting the pole on the ground will damage your cable over time.Make sure you have an actual microphone mount, since smaller DSLR style microphone threads don't fit on the larger thread mount.

Q: 8. Is this compatible with the Sanken CS-M1 microphone?

A: The Sanken CS-M1 is compatible with the Rode SM3-R shockmount.

Q: 9. The Rycote Lyre Shockmount with the Rode Videomic Pro looks to be flimsy and easily breakable, and does not look replaceable. Have you found this to be a concern?

A: It may look flimsy, but the Rycote mount is super durable and chances are it will never break. I've used mine for about a year in the professional application of skateboard filming and mine has taken many hard hits from skateboards (along with my camera) and the Rycote mount is still solid. The durability of the Rycote is and will never be a concern of mine.

Q: 10. Does this mic pick up the image stabilization noise of the Canon 24-105? And if so, is it very noticeable and is there some type of on-camera bracket that isolates the mic from that sound? Im looking for an inexpensive on-camera solution for home movies and getting sound bites from family.

A: I have the Canon 70D, and I purchased the Rode VideoMic Pro just for that reason! It does not pick up any noise from image stabilization on my Canon lenses. The Rycote shockmount does a perfect job at eliminating unwanted noises.
