Absolute must buy
Iv been recording videos for a while and using a GoPro Hero 4 and Canon EOS 700D, I needed my videos to have that bigger sense of professionalism and my purchasing the Rode VideoMic that's exactly what I got.
The design of it is excellent and sits perfectly into the hot shoe mount. Also the Rycote shock mount absorbs any accidental bumps so the mic doesn't pickup any unwanted sounds.
Even when I was filming at a racing circuit with plenty of ambient sound the shotgun Mic was able to pick up the people I interviewed perfectly and the roars of the engine's behind me pretty much a distant rumble.
One recommendation I would have to potential and current buyers is to carry a spare 9 volt battery as it doesn't take a power source from the camera. I store it in the original box it came in to protect it from getting damaged as this doesn't include a carry case.

Rode VideoMic Rycote
This mic is everything that you look for, cheap, good sound, easy to carry around and good quality of assembly. Totally recommended for interviews, documentaries or for ASMR in the kitchen, when fries sound in the hot oil, the recorded sound in this mic makes you want to eat the video.

A must-have for DSLR users
Had been using my DSLR's built-in microphone to record audio. Wanting to upgrade, I invested in this Rode Video Mic. Best investment ever. Quality not wanting for semi-professional use, easy to connect, good build.
