Q: 1. Does this come with a carrying case?

A: Yes, it comes with a carrying case with a handle.

Q: 2. Does anyone have a guess as to the width of the sound angle it can detect? For example, if you have a wide angle lens on your DSLR recording a group of 4-6 people, will the microphone pick up all of their voices, or does the camera need to be moved left and right to record each person's comments.

A: This mic is meant to be highly directional. For more than one person in the recording, the mic would need to be placed onto a boompole and moved to each person as they speak. If you wanted a wider pickup pattern, you could use the Ride Stereo Video Mic Pro: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1273119-REG/rode_stereo_videomic_pro_r_stereo_videomic_pro_rycote.html/specs. Please keep in mind that this will result in more background sound pick up too.

Q: 5. Any reason to get this over the regular Rode VideoMic?

A: Hello Justin, the Rode VideoMic Pro has a built in +20dB preamp which allows you to reduce the gain inside your camera. Note that the camera needs to allow you to lower its preamp. This will result in the microphone handling most of the gain and lowering the overall noise in your recording.

Q: 6. I heard reports of people listening to clicks on recordings with Videomic Pro when shooting with smartphones. Why does this happen and how do I correct it?

A: Hello Marcelo, unfortunately, there are many reasons why this could be happening. Most of them don't have to do with any microphone manufacturer. The best solution would be to contact Rode directly to speak with someone over the phone to work out details.

Q: 7. How can I connect this microphone to the DJI Osmo Mobile 2? Can I connect with an O-Ring Hot Shoe?

A: Hello Marcelo, as far as connecting the VideoMic Pro to the phone, you would need to adapt to TRRS for your phone. The Rode SC4 works perfectly for this. http://www.rode.com/accessories/sc4. I, unfortunately, cannot answer for the Osmo Mobile 2 or the O-Ring Hot Shoe. However, I don't see any reason they shouldn't work.

Q: 8. Will this work with the FZ300 Panasonic ?

A: Hello Clarissa, yes, this should work just fine together. It appears the FZ300 has an external microphone input, and the Rode VideoMic Pro has its own battery, therefore it won't need power from the camera.

Q: 9. Does this mic work with the Sony A6500?
