Compact and light weight by design, the VideoMic GO II delivers clear, crisp, directional audio with incredible ease of use. Its tight 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 integrated Rycote Lyre shock mount isolates your microphone from bumps and vibrations that could otherwise interfere with your sound. Constructed from a single piece of hard-wearing thermoplastic, the Lyre provides superior acoustic suspension to traditional elastic solutions, and will never wear out, sag or snap.
Featuring a suspension structure composed of a hard-wearing thermoplasticThe Scorpion EX displaces the weight of your gear by separating your hand from directly holding the camera body. When holding the Scorpion EX and not the camera, motion and movement is naturally dampened. The Scorpion EX can facilitate moves that look like a professional camera stabilizer or jib arm., it is far more effective at minimizing unwanted vibrations, handling and cable-borne noise than traditional elastic suspensions.
