i got the e3 and the e5, the t3i and the rode videomic. the mic itself as
absouluetly NO hiss. but no matter what option is use, i still have hiss
with my camera. i send everything back (not the t3i) and just buy a zoom
h1. i recommend to do the same. way easier.

Great video, dude. Very informative. Olivia over at OliviaTech also posted
about this. She used the Fiio E11 which is a little more expensive, but the
results were great! Here's the vid, if you haven't seen it:

Interesting. Are you running that on camera or placing it somewhere else to
record audio? I keep seeing everyone use the zoom h4n but it's a little
outside my current budget compared to my needs.

Zoom h1 into camera still has as much hiss as the rode mic but if you
record to the memory of the zoom h1 you have no niss.

Canon cameras usually have a hissing noise because they don't receive audio
microphones that well. To get rid of that, you can buy a BeachTek Adapter.
It is a small box that plugs into your typical DSLR camera, and it has two
XLR inputs for more professional microphones, and one mini jack for
consumer microphones. It should get rid of the hiss. I would suggest the
DXA-4 BeachTek adapter. They are about $96.00 for a used one on Amazon.

@EquinoxBR - Not sure which ones you're asking about, but it's a good rule
of thumb that you usually get what you pay for. A good example is my Sony
WCS999 Wireless Lav. It's ok, but not great by any stretch. I'm looking to
replace it for something better. Gonna try a new mic for it first, but will
likely have to step up to a $400 or $500 Sony UWP or Sennheiser.

I found this channel a couple of weeks ago... And is AWESOME! Love that
there is a channel on youtube about photography and stuff! Keep on! BTW:
why you disable your ratings from your vids? and... Do you have a twitter
account to follow for more news and updates? (cause sometimes i can't see
your news vids on my subscriptions box) ... Thanks!

I'm not getting any audio from my external input, the on-board mic works
great, but when ever I go to the external input, I get nothing, once or
twice I get a crackling sound. Is there any setting I need to change once I
plug the mini plug in, I'll confess I did not read the manual, just to to
lazy. Help

any MIXER SOFTWARE..and hearing through A WIRELESS HEADPHONES.. can i ALSO

If you go to audio settings, click "manual" than adjust the audio to a 1,
which is a notch above the lowest setting. That will take out most of the
hissing. Than use an external mic and adjust your volume and gain from your
external mic. This works great for my T3I.....Hope that helps...

Yes, you can connect a lapel mic in a notebook. My experience with that
showed that if the laptop is connected to the electric power, there is a
hissing. Once I removed it from the electric power (and left the laptop
only with battery) the sound became clear.

@iloveairfrance - My guess is that they're just using the built-in camera
mic in that video you linked to. Not sure how much better a Zoom or Rode
would be in this type of situation as the sound source is so far away and
so large.

@TomHewettPhotography could be your external mic itself. My rode videomic
(shotgun mic) had that problem. turns out it happens a lot with Rode. their
warranty is awesome though, send it back in and sent me a new one.

@ngarcia257 I may be wrong but I think he disables his ratings after he
gives it a thumbs up, this way when people search for vids it shows up as
100% of people whot rated it liked it. Kinda tacky if you ask me.

Since you got the RØDE and the Sony wireless mic why didn't you give a
demonstration of those two compared to the built in mic and that recorder
you got on your desk??

I want to get a mic so I can record my grandsons music concerts. Problem is
there is no way to know where in the audience I will get seated. Sometimes
close to the stage, sometimes further back. What is the best way to capture
audio in this case. I don't have the option of putting a mic on stage

+GenoFelice Get the Stereo VideoMic Pro in that case - if it sounds good to your ears, it should sound good to to the microphone.

what mic what you recommend to buy if i were to record people skateboarding
outside. i was thinking the rode video mic with a deadcat so i won't be
killing the bank. also any good camera handles you recommend that isn't too
expensive thanks

+erick salzman I think you probably want to look at something like the Manfrotto Fig Rig or similar - the 'wheel' style rig should suit that type of moving/fluid photography I think! Lots of info/DIY alternatives too if you google: //benmorrow.info/hacks/2012/8/24/build-a-fig-rig-video-stabilization-wheel

+erick salzman Stereo Videomic Pro I'd say for that - here's a demo on that specifically, and I did record skaters towards the end! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jCfoJiWHyk0 ...when you say camera handles do you mean literally camera rigs to hand-hold cameras, nothing to do with audio?

Hello! I have recently purchased a Videomic Pro and tested it out on a
video today. I used the +20 dB setting and set the manual audio gain on my
650D until my speech reached about -12 dB. However I have this hissing
sound that I can't get rid of, how did you get rid of your hissing sound or
am I doing something wrong?
SourceDistributionTV
commented
on 10 Dec 2015
+donukb Does the level of the hiss change with the change in manual camera level? If so, talk to the shop you bought your Pro from and ask to try a replacement.
donukb
commented
on 08 Dec 2015
I have ML installed so I can confirm when the microphone is plugged in. I am sure that the microphone is on +20dB and even if I set the internal microphone level to manual and extremely low (5 notches above the minimum as recommended by others on the web), the hissing sound continues. In fact my VideoMic is giving me better sound than the Pro, maybe my Pro is just faulty.
SourceDistributionTV
commented
on 08 Dec 2015
+donukb Are you 100% sure its all correctly plugged into the right ports and set up correctly?! The audio in this vid is unfiltered - as long as the VideoMic Pro is on +20dB, it's plugged into the Mic input, the camera is set to manual movie level recordings (at a reasonable level) there should really be no audible hiss. Try tapping the end of the mic to confirm it's 100% taking audio from the VideoMic Pro and not in-built?
donukb
commented
on 06 Dec 2015
+donukb I forgot to add that the microphone WAS attached to the camera, but the hissing sound doesn't have much to do with that

+Metal FilL You can, but be careful - I've used cheap ones and they can make intermittent connections - that leads to dropouts in your audio, which you wouldn't find out about until you'd gotten home and realised your footage is ruined! The RØDE VC1 is totally solid.

For a short film, would you export in mono, stereo or surround? I don't
actually have any stereo tracks in my project and there's no need for
surround for the way I'm releasing my films. Should I just do mono?

+DSLRguide Thanks, I agree!
DSLRguide
commented
on 11 Dec 2015
+todaywiththeCJB definitely stereo, it has so much more depth / realism than mono. Unless you're specifically playing in a cinema, then surround won't do anything for most of the people watching your film.

Great tips here. The info you give is much better then most PROs :) I have
a question though: how to make sure your microphones dont catch ambient
noise when recording these sounds or a person talking for that matter? Do
you have some tips to clean up audio in post?
DSLRguide
commented
on 09 Oct 2015
+Saqib Jan thanks Saqib! The trick is to avoid filming in loud places, and get the microphone about 12inches away from the sound. With that, shouldn't need to clean up in post
