RØDE VideoMic GO

Most of the good DSLR camera’s have 1080p 30p (frames per second FPS), video, that you can use your lenses with to get broadcast quality, crisp high definition and smooth video, however mostly because of constraints of space, the inbuilt audio sucks. All DSLR brands have poor audio and its really just a reference point for sound. The experts tell me that audio is the makes or breaks great video.

So in order to experiment with video on the Nikon D610 I have purchased a RØDE VideoMic GO. The sound pickup area focuses directly in front of the microphone and reduces other surrounding sounds, ensuring that your subject is isolated from distracting background noise. The VideoMic GO has no switches or settings and is powered by the camera's external microphone input. More to come in later posts . . .

Portland Coast Victoria

On a weekend exploratory trip to the far west coast of Victoria suing out the camping and fishing opportunities last weekend. This was a great way to avoid the 40+ C temperatures of central Victoria for a more pleasant 16 -23 degrees.

Also this gave me a chance to test out my new Ultra Wide Nikkor 20mm 2.8 lens. Also to test the roof top tent and the 200 watt solar panel camping configuration. All good.
