Hello! sorry to bother you, but i really need to know if Rode Go mic will work on Canon t2i? I'm especially worried about the connection port? Thanks!

Yes it will work. However, the Canon T2i has no way of turning off Auto Gain Control. That is the cause of the hissing and popping. If you want more control of the sound quality recorded by the T2i I highly recommend using Magic Lantern www.magiclantern.fm Word of warning though, make sure and read everything carefully before trying to install ML on your camera. The chance of bricking your camera does exist but doing your research will keep that from happening.

Sorry, not sure it would work. I have used it mostly on the Panasonic DSLRs, but I'm almost sure it does work on Canon's DSLR because I've own the Canon 5D MarkII and it worked on it too. So, you may be ok, but I would keep researching. I great mic by the way. We use it all the time on our camera for ENG interview and reality tv shows.

it will plug in, and will record audio to your camera. however, i bought this mic for my t3i and was horribly disappointed with the terrible audio. there was a lot of hiss/noise. the mic pro was a much better investment

I'm using the "Rode VIDEOMIC Directional Shotgun Mic w/Mount" with my canon hg10. Is not that expensive, exhibits low noise and offers a switchable high pass filter to reduce unwanted low frequency rumble. I truly recommend you this product.

http://www.learningdslrvideo.com/t2i-7d-disable-agc-rode-videomic/ Its not the mic ... its the camera. Either use the work around at the above link orhttp://www.learningdslrvideo.com/zoom-h4n-review/ you have to get a separate audio recorder and link it to the video in post. If you get frustrated, just remember the T2i is a PHOTO camera. Just appreciate that you are now shooting movie quality video for under a grand. At least that's what I tell myself to help me fall asleep at night. :)

I think it depends on what camera you're using. If it's something similar to the Canon t3i, I would recommend that, if you really can't spend any more money on a microphone, you just use the mic built into your camera. The audio quality is not outstanding, obviously, but it's acceptable if the film is low budget. If you are really interested in improving your audio quality, I would look into microphones made by the company Rode. Just search "Rode microphone" in the Amazon search bar and there should be plenty of results. Usually these microphones range from about $150 - $250. I hope this helps! - Chairlift Productions

I used a Rode Videomic Pro, Rode NTG-3 and Audio Technica ATR3350. There are no issues with any of them when used together

I'm sorry I don't have an answer for you. My best advice is to YouTube the rode vs the audio technica (this is how I make most of my purchasing decisions)

Forgive me, but which Rode microphone do you have? What is the model number? For example, the Rode NTG-1 Condenser Shotgun Microphone usually comes with a microphone 'stand' adaptor that will fit the microphone stand. But if I knew which model of Rode microphone you want to use I might be able to answer your question better. Thanks..

I use it with my Canon T3i and haven't noticed any lag. Like Bryce said his screen goes black for a few seconds when switching modes, mine goes blue. I would suggest pressing the record button on your camera a few seconds before actually filming so everything syncs up properly. But to answer your question....no lag.

There is a link on the Lumix forum "FZ100 External Microphone". The OP found a mike that he says works fine. Audio- Technica ?? He posted the link.

correct. the Rode GO mic only has a stereo type (TRS) 3.5mm plug for audio and electret mic powering. as I understand it you need to get an audio adapter for GoPro which doesn't use the standard audio plug.

Just ran into this message thread, looking to update my wireless mic setup for my Zi8, that I've had since Christmas. Rick-whoever you talked to at Kodak must not be very well-knowledged. I have been using a wireless mic that I've had for nearly 30 years. I'm looking to find one with updated technology, hoping the quality will be a bit better. Hope I can, but if I can't, I know I have one that does work with it. It's an old RCA, but its range is only about 15-18 feet and I have to get the mic close to my mouth or decent sound pickup.

I don't believe so. I don't have my mic with me so i cant double check.. but I believe the jack on the mic is a 1/16 in and I don't think the canon g12 provides that. I actually had the Canon T1i in the rebel series when I bought the mic and it wasn't compatible. I now have the T3i in the rebel series and its perfect. So to answer your question: I'm not 100% sure, but I strongly believe that the mic is not compatible with you camera. Sorry, mate.

Yes. The T3i has an external mic jack. The Rode attaches to the hot shoe. Plug the short cable into the mic jack and you're good to go. The previous responses regarding gain levels are correct. This is an excellent microphone.

Yes, I have the T3i cannon rebel, and it works as promised. Slides right in with no problems.

I have a Canon T3i and I just used this microphone instead of the built-in. I was quite impressed with the results. I was using it with a steadycam rig to shoot a friends wedding. My shooting took me from inside a theatre to outside to the dance floor and in all that movement, and with all of the varying sound environments, the Rode performed awesome. Vocals up to six feet away were crisp and clear, background noise was limited, and the pulsing beat if the dance music did not overwhelm or overshadow the vocals I was trying to pick up. I would definitely recommend this microphone for general purpose shooting. I have a Canon T3i and I just used this microphone instead of the built-in. I was quite impressed with the results.

Your camera has a 3.5mm diameter external microphone input. I suspect that is a line-level input. Check the specs. The PG14/PG185 has both 1/4" and XLR outputs, so you have choice of line level or mic level outputs. With a 1/4" or XLR to 3.5 adaptor, it is possible to easily connect the two devices. The mic works well outdoors. Background/wind noise tolerable. That's what I know. Others may have used this combo, and I hope they are here to give you a more definitive answer. Final resort, call Canon and Shure.
