MovoVXR10 Universal Shotgun Mic for Camera - Camera Microphone for DSLR, iPhone and Android Smartphones - Compatible with Canon EOS, Nikon, and Sony Cameras - with Shock Mount, Deadcat Windscreen

It's adequate for the money. Certainly better quality ones for a higher price. I don't use the brackets so have no idea of their quality. The instructions told me to use one connector for when using with a phone and it wouldn't work. After lots of trouble shooting I simply tried the other cord , and it worked.

We've had this bad boy for over 5 years now....and it still works like a charm. Nuttin' fancy -- it gets the job done for the prosumer!

I bought this to use for short films and it’s been relatively effective. In indoor settings the audio is great, crisp, and overall I’d have given it five stars if that’s what I was looking for exclusively. Unfortunately I did run into some trouble using it outside even with the dead cat. Beyond that my biggest issue I had with it at all was that I couldn’t figure out how to connect it lol. I plugged in the right cord, I checked my settings, I restarted my phone. Nothing worked. What you have to do is make sure you are using the right app for it. This may be different for other people but my regular camera app did not have microphone permissions even able to be allowed on it. If that’s the case with you just download the free black magic camera app, it’s better anyways. Then the microphone should work. Fair warning I should say the dead cat on the end of the microphone to block out wind sound wasn’t that effective. It still performs well as a shotgun mic outside, I definitely got less noise but I was definitely still picking up wind, locusts, etc.

Excelente producto, estoy enamorado.

Micrófono está muy bueno la calidad está muy bueno llevo dos seguros, todo bien condiciones material muy bueno y mucha variedad de producto

As a budding content creator, I was thrilled to get my hands on the Movo VXR10 Universal Shotgun Mic. I had high hopes that this microphone would elevate the audio quality of my videos shot on my Canon EOS Rebel SL3. After using it extensively for both indoor and outdoor shoots, I wanted to share my experience, particularly with the static issues I encountered.Setup and First Impressions:Unboxing the Movo VXR10 was exciting. The packaging was sleek and professional, and the mic comes with a decent array of accessories: a shock mount, a deadcat windscreen, and a carrying case. The mic itself has a solid build, feeling robust yet lightweight. It feels great to hold, and I appreciated how easy it was to attach to my camera.Setting up the mic was straightforward. It connects via a 3.5mm TRS cable, which was compatible with my Rebel SL3 right out of the box. The inclusion of the TRRS adapter for smartphones is a nice touch, making this a versatile choice for those who might want to use it with their iPhone or Android devices in the future.Initial Use and Audio Quality:The first few recordings went relatively well. I noticed a significant improvement in audio quality compared to the built-in microphone on my DSLR. The directional pickup pattern did help isolate sound nicely, and the deadcat windscreen proved effective against light wind noise when filming outdoors.However, this is where things began to take a turn. During post-production, I was shocked to discover that my recordings were plagued with a crazy amount of static. It was frustrating, to say the least. The static was loud enough to overshadow dialogue and any ambient sounds I was trying to capture.*Troubleshooting:At first, I thought it might have been a compatibility issue with my camera. I did some research online and discovered that many user reviews had reported similar issues with static on various camera models, including the Canon EOS range. I tried a few different troubleshooting steps:Check Connections: I ensured that the microphone was properly connected to the mic input on my camera. Sometimes, a loose connection can lead to interference.Battery Power: The VXR10 is powered by the camera, so there shouldn’t be any battery issues. However, I did check my camera’s battery level just to be safe.Wiring Issues: I carefully examined the cable for any signs of wear or damage. In fact, I even tried a different TRS cable to rule out a faulty cable causing the static.Different Settings: I fiddled with different audio settings on my camera to see if adjustments would help alleviate the static issue. Unfortunately, nothing seemed to make a significant difference.The Final Verdict:Despite my initial excitement, the Movo VXR10 left me quite disappointed. While it was effortless to set up and showed promise with improved audio directionality, the consistent static issue when connected to my Canon EOS Rebel SL3 was a dealbreaker.It’s worth noting that static and interference can sometimes be specific to particular camera models or even particular units of the mic itself. Other users with different camera setups may have had a better experience, but my journey with this product was far from perfect.If you’re considering the Movo VXR10, I would recommend doing a bit of research to ensure compatibility with your specific camera. Ideally, testing it out before committing would be the best route to avoid potential frustrations. In the end, I’m left searching for a more reliable external microphone that can meet my content creation needs without the static headache.Pros:Lightweight and portable designIncludes useful accessoriesGood sound directionalityCons:Static interference on my Canon EOS Rebel SL3Mixed compatibility experiences reported by other usersOverall, I can't fully endorse this microphone, but I believe it may work better for others with different setups. Proceed with caution!

I really like the sound quality of this mic however, for the nice price point you are getting a reduction in quality. I have already had to repurchase this mic because the red stand has snapped and won't hold the mic anymore. For the second time now it has broken and I am not going to be repurchasing. Rather looking for a better microphone. Wish they would send you a free replaceable stand because of how flimsy it is.
