dude have you bought? And if you have bought, how is it?

Yeah it seems to be pretty good for quick on the go recording. I keep it in a bag so I always have it.

I haven't really played with the wind noise reduction. I tend not to like digital or electronic wind reduction because it always sounds hollow to me. A good dead-cat or something similar is always a better choice.

Thanks. Hope it gave a little real world insight into the product.

I just have a portable tripod and phone holder. Nothing particularly special.

Thanks, yeah I try not to do too much fluff because for the most part people just want to see/hear the basics and whether or not they should purchase. I just want to show the tests. thanks for the comment.

@@joeytesting thank you and you put it perfectly…”Fluff”

Hope it helped with any questions you may have had.

Glad you got some good info. I'm quite happy with the setup and I've seen a lot of creators starting to use the Rode Wireless Go Mic nowadays. I'm glad I purchased it.

@@joeytesting I actually ended up going with the DJI wireless lapel mic. I was getting ready to pull the trigger on the Rhode when I came across a few comparisons and the DJI seemed to keep coming up the winner. It does cost a few more bucks though. 🤷‍♂️

If it's in manual mode there should be a section in the settings for audio. The On or Off might be to turn Auto on or off. Turn Auto off then see if you can change the settings.

En la cámara debes bajar el volumen a 4 click después de cero. En el micrófono debes usar el switch de +20db. De este modo tendrás muy poco ruido (hiss) proveniente de preamplificador de la cámara

Thanks for summarizing that in Spanish.

@@joeytesting I'm just translating your wisdom, thank you

Glad you found it informative.

Appreciate it!

You're always gonna get some hiss from the Canon cameras, at least the older models. Unless you turn the manual db all the way down, but then you're effectively putting it on mute. This is the best way to get relatively clean audio for Canon owners. (Without doing anything in post.)

Glad you were able to work the solution. :)

This was actually just a first test video. Maybe I'll do another one with more visuals.

@@joeytesting ok thank you so much

You're most welcome

The microphone out from the cable will go to the amp's in port, then with an aux cord out from the amp to the mic input on the camera.

@@joeytesting thank you!

Definitely. I just bought a lav mic to test out with it too so I don't have to attach the bulky mic part to a t-shirt. I have the gain, so to speak, on the middle value because I found that on the high value it was peaking and sounding a bit garbled. Cheers mate and I'll give you a sub back.

@@joeytesting cheers mate and with or without a mic on any gain setting I still sound garbled...I'll keep an eye out for you testing the lav cheers mate.

The only way to reduce hissing on a canon is to turn the manual settings as low as you can, and then increase the audio gain with an external source. If a Rode mic has +20db increase then that might be the best you can get.

I'm not quite sure. A headphone amp really just turns up the gain from the source, which is what you want. The only thing I can think of is maybe the cable is a TRRS (for phones) instead of a TRS (for cameras and other devices).

@@joeytesting Thank you for reply. Volume actually works on amp but max volume was still less than not using amp at all. So I am suspecting my cable. Because amp works on headphone fine. Also I have ordered one thats +20db preamp with phantom power so will see. Btw I am using movo vxr700 on canon m50.

I have a small movo mic as well similar to a Rode VideoMicro. And I was just thinking of doing a test with the mic and add a powered headphone amp to it, to see what the sound difference is. Thanks for the reminder. :)

I'm not sure of Canon 77D, but are you in Manual Video shooting mode? Also have you changed your Audio settings from Auto to Manual as well?

As long as you have a mic that adds 20 DBs and you turn the camera gain down you'll have much better audio.

You're welcome. I feel like a lot of people have had to work harder than they needed to. If only Canon would focus a little more on the audio. Glad it helped. :)

I don't use it that often, or take very long videos. But this particular video I was using the firmware and had 0 issues and it recorded a few minutes with no problems.

Honestly I've never used the Osmo Mobile 3. I only have a small budget so I went with the Moza Mini-S. I did a lot of research and it's the one that fit the specs I was looking for.

I'm not actually sure how to restore the dbpower firmware. I haven't tried it. I'm guessing you could if you have the firmware file and just flash it similar to how you do it for the Akaso. The DB power D5 doesn't have any mic inputs, unless I'm completely missing it. :)

@@joeytesting worth it or not and drekitech believe that this camera is a rebranded akaso v50 pro....which makes sense since you were able to install the akaso firmware. The akaso v50 pro supports a external mic through the mini usb port (with a mini usb mic from akaso or a adapter like those used with gopro hero 3 and 4). With te right firmware, in theory, it is possible to do the same with this camera. Wouldnt be great? Let me know with you decide go deeper... Hehehe. Thanks. See ya

It definitely has really good quality for $20, however I think they are out of stock at the moment.

Thanks. I will. This was actually just supposed to be a test account. Hence the name. :)

If you put the camera in Manual Shooting Mode (M), and have it set to video then your audio settings should appear in the menu. Should be labeled something like Sound Recording.

No I'm not very good at post production. I just took the clips I shot and edited them together and exported. That's why the second part is really low, because I wanted people to hear the actual impact. As long as the manual settings are lower and you add decibels through a mic or other device you won't have a hissing problem. :)

@@joeytesting Thanks so much, Joey! You can see my channel here: ruclips.net/channel/UCMnJ2vdocE_ix1lU3_5LntQ It is a work in progress, and I am trying to make changes to improve between new videos. A few were really bad with lighting and audio. The Canon 600D (Rebel t3i works, but leaves a lot to be desired).

You're welcome. Yeah it's too bad most canon cameras still have this auto gain problem. As long as the manual settings are down and you add decibels from another source you'll be good. This was just the way I learned, but I'm sure there may be other ways. :)

Yes I will most definitely put out a quick video if I see they start selling them again. I actually bought a few as Christmas presents because they were so budget friendly.

The link for the firmware version I used is in the description. It comes with a text file that has 6 steps to update. That's pretty much all I did.

Can't auto what? Let me know if you have any questions and I'll try my best to help.

It basically comes down to the internal camera pre-amp introducing all the noise/hiss, so any way to not use that the better. Glad to help. :)

@@joeytesting I just changed the sound to manual and lowered the volume like you showed, I will see how it goes without the amplifier. Thank you again

Glad you were able to get it to work. Hope it has helped. :)

Joey Testing yes thank you again!

Unfortunately no, you can only do 30fps on OpenCamera on the OnePlus 6.

Hopefully the newer models don't have the same audio issues.

Just shot some footage today. Hopefully will upload in a bit.
