Very good to see the pre-amp attached under a battery grip, I'm looking at getting the Saramonic SR PAX2 for my Canon EOS R with grip, and was worried that setup would be too unwieldy, but it actually looks quite manageable.
@@rileyphotos Thanks, I actually just found a lead to attach my ZOOM U-24 to the camera, although I'd rather have it attach to the camera like with the SR PAX2. One cool thing though is that I can attach a power bank to it which is handy for me.
I haven’t used one Danilo, so I’m not sure, but hopefully someone will see the question and post an answer. I tend to put the battery in the mic rather than using phantom power and it seems to last for ages. I’ve also bought rechargeable 9V lithium batteries with a usb charging port so just charge them before I use them. 🔋
Hi Koen, I mainly use it with Nikon D810s and with DJI Osmos and haven’t found any really significant hiss myself. That’s not a scientific test though, just my own experience. The video on my channel called Portrait Photography 2020 was shot with the PAX2 and a Rode Go Wireless mic. Thank you for watching and commenting , I appreciate it 😀

Yes you’re absolutely right, the extra weight being on the bottom of the camera makes complete sense doesn’t it. Thanks for watching 📷😊
Thanks. I just ordered the PAX2. When would you choose to use Phantom power of 3, 5 or 40?
Haha I’ve no idea Rick. Wonder what runs on that power. Anyone know?
Great video. Audio can be tricky. How is the unit powered?
Thank you for your comment, it’s powered from a 9V battery. 👍🏻

Sounds like you’ve worked out a perfect solution that hasn’t cost too much to put together. That’s a win win situation. Great work 👍🏻
Just picked up a Pax2 + 9v dummy battery. Thanks for the video!
You’re welcome, enjoy, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed. Thanks for watching 👍🏻
Hi, where I can buy dummy battery?

can u share the link of the dummy battery thanks
How's the signal-to-noise with the Saramonic? Does the hiss bother you?
