Lightweight, On-Camera Microphone for Creators

Ideal for run-and-gun video creators and live streamers, the Rode VideoMicro II is an ultracompact and lightweight camera-mount shotgun microphone for recording high-quality audio with a DSLR/mirrorless camera or iOS/Android mobile device. This true shotgun microphone improves on its predecessor by adding a supercardioid pickup pattern and annular line tube technology (first introduced with the NTG5 professional shotgun microphone) to deliver highly transparent and directional sound for your videos on TikTok and YouTube, or for live streaming and online meetings.
With plug & go operation, no complicated controls, and no battery required, the VideoMicro II is easy-to-use right out of the box. The innovative HELIX isolation mount system and included foam and furry windshields ensure all your recordings are crystal-clear, free from knocks, bumps, and wind noises—whether shooting at home or outdoors on the go.

Stunning Sound, Made Simple

Don’t settle for sub-par sound. Combining professional audio quality and simple operation, the VideoMicro II offers the best of both worlds. It doesn’t require batteries – simply plug it in and hit record on your camera or smartphone – and it’s perfectly tuned to deliver crystal-clear audio, with no complicated switches or controls.

Super-focused and Super-clear Audio

The VideoMicro II is a true supercardioid shotgun microphone with RØDE’s revolutionary annular line tube technology, delivering natural, full-bodied sound never before heard in such a compact form factor. It is a highly directional microphone that will clearly pick up sound from in front while reducing background noise from the sides and rear. Perfect for filmmaking, vlogging, or creating content on your smartphone.

Innovative HELIX™ Isolation Mount

HELIX™ is a groundbreaking isolation mount developed in-house by the RØDE team specifically for the VideoMicro II. Featuring an innovative design expertly crafted to the exact specifications of the microphone, it provides superior protection from knocks, bumps and general handling, which can result in unpleasant rumbles in your recordings. It is also super low-profile, keeping your setup sleek while offering optimal acoustic performance. The mount features handy cable management slots, plus an attachment for your camera and a thread for mounting onto a boompole and other accessories.

Ultra-compact. Ultra-rugged.

At just 80mm long and weighing just 39 grams, the VideoMicro II is incredibly compact and lightweight, making it the perfect addition to any creator kit or camera bag – or even backpack or handbag. Despite its small size, it is incredibly tough, with a rugged all-metal body and premium components. Take it with you everywhere.
