      No problem and it does not. When you connect it using a USB cable with Rode Connect on your laptop or PC you have some functions but you don't have a safety channel.

    Does videomic go ii need a lot of power from camera's battery?
    Btw, We are cooking channel, which one do you recommend for that matter?

    • @Jacqie
      @Jacqie  Год назад +1

      The videomics don't drain that much battery and yoh won't really notice it on short shoots. I would assume if you are filming hours on end you might see a few minutes being lost, but not a lot.
      Either would be good, but how do you intend to use the mic? Are you using it to film sound of the food cooking? Do you want just your voices to be heard or a mix of everything?

      I think i'd like to take more sound from cooking scenes and some time add some voice over in the video editting. I have doubts between ntg or video mic ii.
      P.s. i already have lav and it records all the noises from everywhere in the home

    Can the NTG focus better over a larger distance? I've got the videomic go 2 and my current impression is it's not very good at isolating the person in front of it compared to chatter from the sides when it's more than a feet or two away.

    • @Jacqie
      @Jacqie  9 месяцев назад +1

      The NTG is slightly better over longer distances, but it isn't drastic. Why are you recording so far away though?

    If the go II had gain control and 3.5 mm it might be worth it but not as is.

      The go ii does have a 3.5mm out to use on cameras but yeah the gain control of the NTG is a really good feature and comes in really handy.

    • @Jacqie
      @Jacqie  Год назад

      @@benvanmassenhove the rode videomic ntg could work great since you can adjust the gain on the mic to be low and it has a -20 db cut and high pass filter to cut the bass which can be good and it turns off automatically when not in use. Or you can use the Rode Wireless Go IIs as they are also a greag choice and you can record directly on the mic module if needed with a -20db cut as well

    Can't really hear a difference in sound quality between the GO II and NTG even with my studio monitor headset.

    • @Jacqie
      @Jacqie  2 года назад

      They are very close and the biggest difference really is the directionality is better with the NTG and is a bit better over larger distances. Then of course there is the physical controls but other than that they are very similar and it surprised me
