  • I bought the Canon DM-E1D despite of some of its bad specs. And I found out that one of those is just wrong. So, is this the perfect microphone for R5C, R3, R6II, R7, R8, and R10? Put your headphones on and decide yourself!
    Do you love filmmaking, camera rigs, the R5C and Ronin gimbals?

    Very interesting and useful video. Great experiment testing the frequency range. I think the microphone is a bit underrated, because one reads Canon’s published frequency range and one is immediately put off. For me personally, listening to the two side by side with you speaking, the Canon mic is much clearer and easier to understand what you are saying. This may be because my hearing has degraded in the high end, so I need the low end to be reduced to not make speech sound mufffled. I’m now really uncertain which of the two to get !

      Thanks! I would decide based on if I needed the mono/stereo feature or not.

    Good to know this mic does pick up the whole frequency spectrum. I’m not sure why you would need to use an adjustment curve to make the canon mic “sound like the rode”. Boosting the lows, especially that much below 40hz is just going to add a bunch of mud and rumble to your sound. I would just EQ in post, the low end rolloff could even be ideal.

    • @johannesdoerr
      @johannesdoerr  4 หลายเดือนก่อน

      That was more of an academic experiment :) Most of the time I make custom adjustments with the EQ (if even)

    Thank you for the useful video. I have a question. I'm going to record the lines of the characters outdoors, so will the equipment(Canon DME 1D) up there be okay? The camera is using Canon R7. Thank you again for the great video from Korea~~

    • @johannesdoerr
      @johannesdoerr  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Always make sure to be as close to the speakers as possible. If it's only two people, I'd recommend lav mics. Is it on a stage outdoors? Then you could install a rode stereo mic with a rode wireless system in front of the stage, and be further away with the camera. A mic on the camera is always the worst option, but if you have no other option than that, I think the DME1D will do great!

    Interested in this. Unfortunately Canon RF lenses are pretty loud for video autofocus (was surprised by this). Any idea if this mic helps? Thanks.

      No it doesn’t. But not a problem if surroundings are loud enough :)

    dont forget the camera has its internal mic and i find it does well for outdoor scenes to capture all sounds

    • @johannesdoerr
      @johannesdoerr  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Yes, I think my comparison between internal and DME-1D also shows that it is not too bad for street sounds, but not really for music... And it's only mono. Weird, even my RP records stereo.

  • @falxonPSN

    I think Canon's frequency response is as terrible as they claim. Your tests back that up. The levels drop off significantly outside the 100-10k range. Normally, those ratings for frequency response are given as +/- 3dB of levels. At 14:25, your video even shows this on their datasheet, but you are not looking at the row directly below your cursor. Rode claims 35-18k, still far better than Canon.
    So, just because it CAN pick up sounds outside that range is largely meaningless, as they will not be consistent or accurate in relation to the other frequencies.
    Yes, you could apply a custom EQ curve, but that's going to boost a lot of noise, especially given how awful the signal-to-noise ratio is. Given all of this, the sad conclusion is that this is just not a good product for the vast majority of use cases.
