Microphone features
Durable and compact
At less than 7.4 cm long and weighing 28 grams, the VideoMic Me-C is a discreet companion for your smartphone and its durable aluminium housing helps to reject RF interference.
Condenser microphone with directional sound capture
While most microphones built into smartphones capture sound from all directions, this microphone uses a cardioid directivity to focus on the sound in front of it while attenuating sound coming from the rear. Its directional condenser element delivers more detailed sound than the microphones typically found in mobile devices.
Easy connection to smartphone
As the VideoMic Me-C is equipped with a USB Type-C connector, it can plug directly into the USB Type-C port of your smartphone, with no cable or adapter required. A rubber clip is included to ensure a stable and secure attachment to your mobile device.
Powered by your mobile device
The VideoMic Me-C runs on your mobile device's power, so no battery is required to operate it. Simply connect the microphone to your smartphone and forget about replacing or recharging the battery.
Headphone port
With the VideoMic Me-C, there is no uncertainty about your audio quality. Its 3.5 mm output allows you to plug in headphones for convenient real-time monitoring while the microphone remains connected to your mobile device. It also allows you to listen to the playback of your recorded content.
24-bit digital resolution
The built-in analogue-to-digital converter operates at up to 24-bit / 48 kHz for industry-standard signal quality and compatibility with most audio and video recording applications.
The windshield minimises wind noise
The VideoMic Me-C includes a windshield to minimise unwanted wind noise from breezes, fans, radiators and air conditioning units.
SmartGrip features
Smartphone mount
The SmartGrip is a high-quality solution for mounting a smartphone on a tripod. It features a robust metal construction with rubber grips and is suitable for mounting phones from 6.6 to 8.6 cm wide.
Additional mounting points
The SmartGrip features a cold shoe for easy attachment of Rode VideoMics and other accessories. Three 1/4" threaded mounting points allow easy mounting on tripods and handles in various orientations.
Tripod 2 features
Supports a variety of devices
The Tripod 2 is a robust three-position tripod for mounting cameras, microphones and other accessories.
Closed or open positions
In the closed position, the Tripod 2 is perfect for handheld use. The tripod legs can also be opened to a medium or wide position for optimal positioning and stability.
1/4" thread
The Tripod 2 features a 1/4" thread for attaching cameras and camera accessories.
MicroLED features
Compact and rechargeable
The MicroLED is a compact, rechargeable camera light. It is ideal for vlogging, reporting, mobile film production and documentaries.
Adjustable brightness
The MicroLED features four adjustable brightness settings, and a clip-on diffuser with eight colour filters.
More than four hours of battery life
Power is supplied via the USB Type-C charging port, which both charges the internal battery and can also power the light. Battery life is more than four hours at low brightness.
