Welcome back to our channel, Thes Unboxing I am John and behind the camera is Alice, say hello
Hello!
We are back again with another video which this time is a microphone
Rode, I think you say it like that
We had some problems with the microphone we are using at the moment
Alice said we should buy from Rode because everyone has them
I don't really like it when everyone gets a specific brand
When everyone is buying an iPhone, I'm buying something else
When everyone is buying a Samsung, I'm buying something else
I buy AMD products when the majority buy Intel
I generally don't like to follow with the majority
I listened to Alice and bought this because she said it's very good and can be connected to any camera.
True enough, you can connect it to a DSLR
So, I decided to try it
Let's see what's inside the box and then test it to see if it's worth the extra
compared to the cheap microphone that's on the camera at the moment
Here we have the Videomic go from Rode,
that's how I say it, I don't know how you say it
Lightweight On-camera microphone,
so it's for a camera as you can see from the picture
This microphone is made in Australia (stated on the bottom of the box)
I didn't know that they made anything in Australia
Let's see what's on the outside of the box
It says it has clear and directional audio,
so it will record better at where you are aiming at and won't have any background noise
That's why you would buy this microphone to record what's in front of the camera and not all around
The jack is 3.5mm
On the side, we can see that it has 2 years warranty
It has this design
It doesn't need battery and it is very light
Indeed, it is very light even with its box
It's so light that someone wouldn't know that this is a microphone that costs 70 euro
Before I forget this microphone costs 69 euro, most stores sell it for 69,
some stores sell it for a little bit more
On the side, we can see a DSLR with the microphone
Let's check out what's inside the box
Inside the box, we find the microphone
Let's put it at the side for now
A red cable, 3.5mm jack, stereo
With Rode logo
A quick start guide
Which explains how easy it is to connect to a camera
There is no Greek but I wasn't expecting any, however, it has English
Let's check out the microphone
The microphone comes with suspension as you can see
So, it will absorb any shakes given to the camera
On the back, it has a slot for the minijack, it has 'Made in Australia'
and the serial number written there too.
And, something up here which I'm not sure about
On the bottom, it has mount to put it on the camera
It's for all cameras, all cameras have the same mount for it
Let's remove this for the sound
On the side, it has some small holes that I can feel by touching it
I suppose they are for the sound on the sides
The same thing on the other side
Like it has a hole over here I suppose it has over here holes as well
Back here I can see the moving coil
And on the tip, it has foam
so it won't have any background noise
It feels very simple I don't know how good it is
It has the suspension though
We are going to test and compare to see if it is worth the 70 euro
This was the microphone Rode Videomic Go, there is also a pro version
Let's check it out in action
Since we are showing microphones, we will show you the old microphone
To listen too as well, now we have the Rode connected
To check out if there is a big difference Although, I can see on the volume bars on the camera
that it has a big difference
I bought this from Ebay
It was cheap, it costed around 8-9 Euro
It is a simple microphone
Something got stuck inside here
Its foam
You wouldn't expect a lot from a microphone that costed 8-9 euro
It has an adjustable mount with varies between 90-120 degrees
It was using a battery over here
A CR2 battery
It was working with this battery and was pretty good
It started lately to make some background noises so I decided to change it before it stops working
So, we got the Rode
We are going to compare the sound, you can check it as well of course
I am going to tell you what I think
Here we are again After he heard the sound,
I can say that it has a better sound and it sounds louder
But I was expecting something more from a microphone that costs 70 euros
It has good sound but I was expecting something better in comparison with the other that costed 7-8 euros
I am going to put it at the same distance as before, same spot for each microphone
I think that 69 euro with 9 euro should have had a bigger difference
We will change the mics now
This is the sound with the microphone that costed 9 euro, it might have been less, at 7-8 I don't remember
The sound is lower and with a little bit more background noise but it costs 9 euro
The other one that costs 69 should have no background noise
It has a background noise even though I am not a microphone expert I can tell that it has background noise
You can hear the sound difference, the choice is yours
Let's put the Rode back
This is the microphone from Rode
We will be using this for future videos,
we will also keep the previous one which we forgot to turn on sometimes, because it has a switch
We are going to keep it just in case something happens
As you can see the channel is improving, we got lights, a new microphone
I recommend the microphone to Sharigan and Gaming Castle, to Andriano
It is very nice
