  • เผยแพร่เมื่อ 24 พ.ย. 2014
  • In this comprehensive guide our video guy Alex takes you through the most important tips and tricks you need to get professional audio with a DSLR camera and a RØDE VideoMic. NOTE: Please watch with headphones or studio monitors!
    Here's a handy list of all the VideoMics and Accessories covered in the video, with links to pick them up from a UK dealer near you.
    Click here: sourcedistribution.co.uk/video...
    Note: Audio is unprocessed (just some level matching). Video is shot with a Canon 550D (aka Rebel T2i) loaded with the excellent Magic Lantern software, which is highly recommended if you have a Canon camera which supports it, as it adds lots of great features for capturing clean audio on the camera, plus the ability to defeat auto gain compensation!

    I love how a video starts talking about sound and my ears are witnessing the clearest crispest audio I have ever witnessed on youtube! Amazing!

      +FiveManDown Ha, got to practice what you preach, right? It's not hard to do either, just good settings at the closest distance.

      It's true. There are so many crap videos to wade through to find any quality on TH-cam. But this is absolutely fantastic.
