Quick question. Do you set your in camera audio gain to 1 or lowest gain set? Also, seeing the -10/-20/ 0 gain option on mic, does it autocorrect levels in mic?
I adjust in-camera audio so it peaks at -12db. The -10/-20/0 settings on the mic are manual gain settings, so it won’t auto correct levels, it’s just a quick manual adjustment in-mic. Hope this helps!
In my opinion, the Joby Microphone produces superior sound quality. I am unsure whether it is specific to my headset or not, but I find that the Joby microphone delivers clearer audio compared to the Rode microphone, which tends to sound somewhat muffled and makes it more challenging to discern the words.
just about as good as any other on-cam shotgun mic in this price category! It does a goood job isolating noise to what's in front of the mic, but I would be sure to pick up a deadcat wind filter if you're filming outdoor games
Thank u, i have 700 dollars, Chile, going for the rode pro and this one!
very helpful - thank you!!
Glad to help!
In your test the Joby gave more mids and clarity, while the Rode had more base, too much base for my taste, somehow muffled as others mentioned yet.
Great video! I'm considering buying the Joby, it all sounds very good
Thanks! I do love the mic. Appreciate the comment!

@@JosephMartin good stuff, thanks a lot for such a quick reply🫡
I came here from your Rode Mic video and I think you sold me on this Joby one, I’m on the market for a shotgun mic specifically for vlogging. 🤔
Both are super solid options, but the Joby ends up in my camerabag more often these days!

Interesting! Thanks for your input!
how would the joby mic be for sports video?
