I don't know exactly what model of rig they are using. This one is similar. But there are a bunch out there if you search iPhone rig.

The mic looks like a Rode video micro.

The light could have been anything. If you Amazon search for LED on camera light, you'll see a lot of similar setups.

/u/Jameson2912 - with a $300 budget, you can get decent camera support, a low light lens and an external mic.

If you can stretch your budget by $19, I recommend a [$179.99 Panasonic 25mm f1.7] (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=2&pub=5575034783&toolid=10001&campid=5337235943&customid=&icep_item=182012172949&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=229466&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=lg), a [$59 Rode VideoMicro] (https://www.amazon.com/Rode-VideoMicro-Compact-Camera-Microphone/dp/B015R0IQGW/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&linkCode=ll1&tag=battleforthew-20) and a [$79.95 3Pod V3AH Tripod with Fluid Head, Quick-Release Plate and a 65mm bowl] (https://www.amazon.com/3Pod-V3AH-Anodized-Aluminum-Quick-Release/dp/B00F8VU3CQ/ref=as_li_ss_tl?ie=UTF8&linkCode=ll1&tag=battleforthew-20).

This will give you a steady platform with smooth pans and tilts, improve the camera's low light performance and improve your audio quality (as seen [here] (https://vimeo.com/146584593)).

u/Spritboi · 4 pointsr/videography

I would definitely recommend the Rode Videomicro. If want even better, plug the Videomicro into a Zoom H1 and you'll be set!

u/SolMarch · 3 pointsr/videography

[Rode's VideoMicro](http://amzn.to/2d9pZRN "Rode VideoMicro") may be a good option for your needs. It comes with a fuzzy windscreen which should help reduce wind noise.

You can use a flash bracket (example) to use accessories like microphones and LED lights with your camera. The bracket attaches via the camera's tripod mount and provides you with a couple cold shoe mounts.

u/w_yates · 3 pointsr/Cameras

Røde do the best in my opinion, this will be enough for what you asking for as long as you aren't an audiophile:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B015R0IQGW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_jQVzyb0Q2900M

Also just check if you really need a microphone, most cameras have fairly reasonable quality now, especially for YouTube and such

u/Mr_Romo · 3 pointsr/Cameras

The Sony A6000 Hands down the best in that price range. You are going to want decent audio though so I would recommend also getting something like The Rode Video Micro.

youtube vlogging setups is also a great place to get some really good info!

u/Matthew_MD · 2 pointsr/gopro

I did a bunch of research and there is a lot of good things to say about the Rode directional mic. I just ordered one for myself.

your audio is not that bad actually. yeah it can be better but ive done worse lol My audio is finally on point now.

wait ...is that why you have the ear bud in....thats your mic? I bought a great boom mic. I have a lav too if im in a crazy area or dealing with a lot of outside noise.

i like your content i like how you have clips of the actual movie. I wanted to do something with movies but Idk how to get the movie without buying it. blaaaah. i aint tryna steal it. lol

some ppl would be put off by the swearing. Im not but i get that complaint too in my vids.

your thumbnails- good that your face is in them. make your letters bigger. use the space wisely. easy to see and highly recognizable ya know.

boom i use. not too expensive https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015R0IQGW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s03?ie=UTF8&psc=1

u/kdiddy24 · 2 pointsr/PanasonicG7

I use this takstar (30$) - http://amzn.to/2rx9Qwe

Here's a sample video/vlog of mine on my g7 outside in chicago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WSsQcUmsflo&t


Short review: I think its best bang for the buck. For 30$ it's half the price of the rode micro and the quality is within 90ish% of the quality of rode and sometimes better. The only cons I would say is its a bit bigger, and the on/off is annoying sometimes bc I forget to flip it on and my video records without audio. If you got 60$ I'd go with the rode micro - http://amzn.to/2pYWFDk. Its smaller and easier to use.

u/TheMidBossYT · 2 pointsr/youtubers

I can definitely say I'm jealous! I wish I could do what you're doing.

The quality of the footage is definitely nice and high, which is always important in vlogs, especially in travel vlogs. I definitely recommend picking up some kind of microphone to improve the talking quality, but it's honestly not bad. It's just the easiest nitpick to make. One cost effective mic that I've had repeatedly recommended to me is this one.

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B015R0IQGW/?coliid=I27W1PR76WPIHS&colid=1T8AH88FFX71&psc=1&ref_=lv_ov_lig_dp_it

The music felt fitting, and had that 'pop' music feel that is very appropriate for this type of video. I can agree with noodltube in that you should focus more on having the commentary match the clips (if at all possible), but I think the shots you did provide were really nice for the most part.

I would also suggest lowering the background audio as well.

Finding a format for videos, I find, is one of the biggest difficulties in creating content. I would suggest you heavily focus on determining what your format should be for future videos. This was just a trailer of sorts, so I'm not really criticizing this video as much as just giving you hopefully helpful hints for the future.

Keep giving it your all and I wish you luck on your journey! Sorry if my criticisms sound too harsh, I think you're off to a fine start.

u/SufficientNeck · 2 pointsr/CasualUK

Rode video Micro is great too (lighter than the VideoMic Pro). Got one of them as well - it's a shotgun mic as the previous commenter suggested.

What are you using to film?

EDIT: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Rode-VideoMicro-Compact-Camera-Microphone/dp/B015R0IQGW/

u/Swegggie · 2 pointsr/Filmmakers

My favorite guides to budget film making are the old Film Riot videos and DSLR Video Shooter

For Audio I would personally recommend the RODE VideoMicro It is $60 or so and with a boompole it would be a great dialogue and sound effect mic.

Some of the cheaper light kits on Amazon (i.e. LimoStudio, Fancier Studio, Neewer) are OK? I use the LimoStudio kit and it works for small rooms but anything further than 8-10 feet is almost useless. I would recommend getting the work lights and wax paper mentioned by /u/potablepotents

Hope this helps, and I'd be interested in seeing you final project or working with you!

u/KatzoCorp · 2 pointsr/videography

It might be pretty under budget, but I got recommended the Rode Videomicro over on the /r/videography subreddit and have been loving it. It's just a standard shutgun mic, pretty small, comes with a fur and an antishock mount.

So far I've used it for filming crowds, which it handles decently, done some range testing outside with people talking, which it does very well, and I've done a voiceover for a documentary-like piece. The mic was really nice overall, but it suffers from phantom power, in that you have to use the camera's preamp, which is decent on the G7, I'd say.

$59 in the US, from Adorama.

[58€ in the EU, from Amazon.] (https://www.amazon.de/Rode-VIDEOMICRO-VMMICRO-VideoMicro/dp/B015R0IQGW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1465681346&sr=8-1&keywords=rode+videomicro)

There's also the Videomicro's bigger brother, the Videomic. Don't really have experience with that one, but if reviews are to be believed, it does what the Videomicro does, just bigger and better. It's battery powered, also.

91€ in the EU from Amazon, although I couldn't find an option in the US for under a hundred.

Just my $.02

u/maxwood · 2 pointsr/photography

I'm looking to get a microphone to attach to my DSLR for filmmaking, I just need a generally good all-rounder. Budget £75 but can go for more if you can persuade me of the benefits.

I'm looking at a couple of different RODE mics but it's confusing what the benefits are when they're so similarly priced -

https://www.amazon.co.uk/R%C3%98DE-VideoMic-GO-Camera-Microphone/dp/B00GQDORA4/ £50

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Rode-VideoMicro-Compact-Camera-Microphone/dp/B015R0IQGW £42

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Camera-Audio-VideoMic-Rycote-Mount/dp/B00CAE8PM4/ £70

I don't know anything about sound so any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

u/CameraRollSoundSpeed · 2 pointsr/videography

Panasonic G7 and Rode VideoMicro would be best for you. The Panasonic G7 shoots killer 4k, does 1080p at 60fps (for slow-motion potential), is compatible with a wide variety of lenses and if you live in the U.S. can be had for $699 brand new right now from Amazon with a lens included, or, if you're okay with like-new-in-box, B&H Photo/Video has it for just $599 with the same kit lens. Even if you don't live in the U.S., you can usually get a good deal if you shop around. I live in Canada where it normally costs $1000, but I got mine for $700 like-new-in-box.

As for a microphone, the Rode VideoMicro is cheap, small and great-sounding for the price. It can be had for $59.99 from Amazon if you're an Amazon Prime subscriber, or, if you're not, B&H also sells it for $59.99.

That combination would be the best way to go for people looking to get into video for under $1000.

Cool, Thank you!

Do you think the wireless mic would be a better option than something like this?

Rode VideoMicro Compact On-Camera Microphone with Rycote Lyre Shock Mount: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015R0IQGW/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=A17MC6HOH9AVE6

Can you eleborate on comprehensive audio setup?

I'm trying to think of ideas of how filming my teaching this could work audio-wise. I could potentially re-add the music in post production and maybe have the voice audio mic so loud that the music in the back wouldn't show up at all.

My goal is to create videos of me teaching my group yoga classes to post it on YouTube so people can take the classes with us if they choose. I'm hung up on the audio and also getting into music copywrite stuff for youtube. I create unique playlists to teach to for each class and it is a big component to the teaching. If I can integrate the music the classes will be more interesting, dynamc and fun.

Any Ideas or suggestions anyone has is appreciated! I've been trying to sort through this for a while now...

u/Bfire7 · 1 pointr/photography

A lac mic is sounding like the best option! I do have this shotgun Rode mic:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B015R0IQGW/
But I'm worried about it being clipped on top of my camera - wouldn't that pick up the whirring noise of the lens autofocus?

I don't know what the best microphone for the 2XL is but I have been using this microphone with my DSLR and thought I'd try with my 2XL: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B015R0IQGW

This cable works with my 2XL / dongle: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00L6C8T22

Just got the new Google camera a few days ago so haven't been able to play with it a lot. it works. Sound quality is very good but the audio level is very low making it basically unusable. Haven't found a way to turn up the mic gain.

How far away do the knock offs work? For example, could you whisper at 4ft with acceptable noise levels?

This is the one i have, it doesnt need batteries and im not seeing an on off switch.

u/PatTheMovies · 1 pointr/Filmmakers

The G7/14-42mm lens you linked to is a great deal right now. You should be in excellent shape if you go in that direction.

Also, don't overlook audio! The built-in camera microphones are universally terrible. To start with, invest in a rode videomic, rode videomicro, or a Movo VXR10. Eventually, you'll probably want to look at lav mics (the kind you see clipped onto news anchors).

Lastly, getting professional results out of a camera requires experience. The camera won't do the work for you no matter how nice it is. Hit up youtube for some corporate video-making tutorials and you'll be off to a good start.

Good luck!

u/Rettocam · 1 pointr/audioengineering

Hey everyone! Ill keep this short. Been looking into a shotgun microphone for dslr low quality videos. I need a new one because my old one broke.

I had a Audio Technica ATR6550. It did its job, sounded good. I would like something similar.

I was looking at the Rode microphones. Such as the VideoMicro or the Rode VideoMic Go

They are both under $100 which is nice. All I am asking is your opinion on these and if there maybe something better out there I am missing.

u/Voodootec · 1 pointr/oneplus

Soo, Mic is working but I can't hear anything when I call someone because the OnePlus think there is an headset connected. But I can record a video with external Mic.

u/JohannesVerne · 1 pointr/Filmmakers

Unfortunately, the only thing I can think of that will still reliably get you decent audio is the Rode VideoMicro, which is just over your budget. You can also get an extension cable if you get the Rode or another mic but still need a long cable. Hopefully you can find something within your budget, but that's the best suggestion I've got, sorry.

u/ziovelvet · 1 pointr/gopro

Planning on buying the Hero7, I have few questions:

I know Hero7 has HyperSmooth. Would a Gimbal improve stabilization or it's pointless? Would The Handler or similar be enough? I'd love to have maximum stabilization as possible (planning on going to concerts and filming).

I'd also love to set up an external mic (I have this one) attached to the Gimbal/handler, sort of like this picture. Is it possible with a Gimbal?

I've read that having the GoPro 3.5mm Mic Adapter plus an external mic, some people got problems while recording and simultaneously charging the GoPro Hero7 battery saying there was no audio recorded in the video, if this is true it's fixable?

Since I'll go to concerts, due to the high volume, is it possible to adjust the audio to the minimum into the Hero7 settings?

Any recommendations if Karma Grip is better than any other like Feiyu G6 Gimbal?

u/card10 · 1 pointr/Cameras

Glad I could help!

All the cameras will have a built-in mic but I'd highly recommend getting an external shotgun mic (one that sits on top of the camera). They're not that expensive and the quality difference is super worth it. One thing to note though is that some camera's don't have an external mic jack so make sure your camera has that.

[This one](https://www.amazon.com/Rode-VideoMicro-Compact-Camera-Microphone/dp/B015R0IQGW/ref=sr_1_10?keywords=rode+shotgun&qid=1569370736&sr=8-10) is pretty popular and not that expensive. You could also check eBay to get a better deal on one.

u/Skitch_n_Sketch · 1 pointr/photography

Haven't played with mics very much, but I'll point you to this video that talks about them a bit.

I know the Rode VideoMicro is pretty popular though.

u/sharkalligator · 1 pointr/videography

Yes, thank you that helps alot! I was looking abround some more and found these things

phone cage with 2 lenses

light - and maybe the charger/softbox combo

And a mic

Total price would be around $200 so I can work with that. And yes I will just have to show them the ropes a bit on how to get the best possible video.

Thanks so much for your help!

u/jam6618 · 1 pointr/videography

As far as specs go, the only difference is in price and in variable aperture. Variable aperture is something I work with on a daily basis but would be a great thing to not have to deal with. IMO, just an annoyance. Light will likely not come into play because you already can just switch to your 55 f/1.8 for low-light. Other than that, I think it comes down to focal length. Do you want to have the 18-30 range or will you not miss it because you already usually shoot at 55?

I would not consider it "easy" to get good slider shots but also not hard. It largely depends on your slider and experience with the slider. Gentle hand + smooth slider = great shots. I think that it would be better to invest in good lenses, a good tripod, good mics, and good lights before getting a slider as you can make an equally good video without a slider.

Yes, here are some cheaper options. However, I should note that the mic I recommended has a "+20dB" setting that can allow you to turn down the pre-amps in your camera or recorder and get better, cleaner audio. Most other mics do not have the feature. The mic I recommended has a bunch of younger brothers. The rode videomic that I have. Great mic, no boost setting, a bit bigger than I would like. The rode videomic go, no battery required mic, pretty cheap. Some people say it is no better than just for scratch audio and barely better than on-board mics, I can't speak to the claims. I'm not trying to scare you away from it, just letting you know what is out there. The rode videomic micro, a super small mic, more intended for small cameras or smartphones, I don't know how good the audio quality is. Outside of the Rode brand family, there is also the Shure LensHopper that is often said to rival the videomic pro. It comes in two different versions, one with a built-in audio recorder, and one without.

Let me know what else I can help with!

u/kabbage123 · 0 pointsr/videography

By camera, I presume you mean camera kit (lens, etc) and not just the camera body.

For under $2k, I'd go with a Panasonic G85 paired with this versatile lens. You'll have an incredible range of focus, decent low light performance at wider focal lengths, and lastly you will also be able to take advantage of dual IBIS (which means the lens's stabilization communicates with the Camera's stabilization, providing you with the most steady shot that's available in the industry, which is incredibly useful when shooting handheld).

If you go this route, you'll have a little money left over to pick up a nice prime lens like this Panasonic 25mm f1.7, which will help when you are in lowlight situations, as well as a small aftermarket microphone.
