Q: 5. If i use this mic with a sc7 cable on my iPhone or Samsung s6(i dont wanna buy a videomic me) and there is a hiss sound then how should I stop it when using the videomicro with default camera app on my SMARTPHONE? Please help

A: Anytime you mount a mic on the cam, you will get hiss since the mic will be too far from the speaker and excess gain will need to be applied to get the sound level up. The video micro is a handy piece of kit, but is not a pro solution in any aspect. It is best used for a scratch track to synch your more professional audio tracks from a different recorder. Not probably what you want to hear. You need to get the mic off the cam and closer to the speaker.

Q: 6. Does the zoom feature of the mic (digitally sliding between cardiod and shotgun modes, in proportion to the optical zoom position) work for the Sony A7iii? I'm worried it only works with Sony camcorders since they have fly-by-wire optical zoom.

A: No there is no optical syncing with the cameras lens at all.

Q: 7. will this mic work on the Panasonic hc v700 and the canon HF G40?

Q: 8. Will the mic work with a Sony DSC hx60v?

A: The Sony DSC-HX60V is not compatible with the Rode VideoMicro microphone because it lacks a dedicated microphone input. You may however, use a sony multi-interface shoe mic; B&H# SOECMXYST1M or B&H # SOECMGZ1M.

Q: 9. will it work with a Canon 70D?

A: I have the Canon 60D and I'm experiencing the hiss from the mic. Is there a way to remove the hiss with Adobe Premiere?

Q: 10. dose it work with PXW-Z190?
