As a beginner filmmaker, I’ve been making short films with my friends and family, and I needed a reliable mic to improve my audio quality. I’ve been using this shotgun mic on my Canon 90D, and it’s been a great starting point for me.While it's definitely not professional-grade audio, especially in noisy environments, for the price, it’s a solid entry-level option. It’s easy to set up and works well for basic filming needs. The sound quality is clear enough for most of my videos, and it’s made a noticeable difference compared to using the built-in mic on the camera.For anyone just starting out and on a budget, this mic is a great way to improve your audio without breaking the bank. It’s a good balance of performance and affordability, and it’s been a great addition to my gear collection as I continue learning and growing in filmmaking!

The sound quality from this is excellent! My only issue is one of the little red stands/holders broke in a few places while I was trying to figure out how it worked and had to be glued back together. Still, it's a pretty great mic for the price point (The only one I found with better ratings was $200+)

As a budding content creator, I was thrilled to get my hands on the Movo VXR10 Universal Shotgun Mic. I had high hopes that this microphone would elevate the audio quality of my videos shot on my Canon EOS Rebel SL3. After using it extensively for both indoor and outdoor shoots, I wanted to share my experience, particularly with the static issues I encountered.Setup and First Impressions:Unboxing the Movo VXR10 was exciting. The packaging was sleek and professional, and the mic comes with a decent array of accessories: a shock mount, a deadcat windscreen, and a carrying case. The mic itself has a solid build, feeling robust yet lightweight. It feels great to hold, and I appreciated how easy it was to attach to my camera.Setting up the mic was straightforward. It connects via a 3.5mm TRS cable, which was compatible with my Rebel SL3 right out of the box. The inclusion of the TRRS adapter for smartphones is a nice touch, making this a versatile choice for those who might want to use it with their iPhone or Android devices in the future.Initial Use and Audio Quality:The first few recordings went relatively well. I noticed a significant improvement in audio quality compared to the built-in microphone on my DSLR. The directional pickup pattern did help isolate sound nicely, and the deadcat windscreen proved effective against light wind noise when filming outdoors.However, this is where things began to take a turn. During post-production, I was shocked to discover that my recordings were plagued with a crazy amount of static. It was frustrating, to say the least. The static was loud enough to overshadow dialogue and any ambient sounds I was trying to capture.*Troubleshooting:At first, I thought it might have been a compatibility issue with my camera. I did some research online and discovered that many user reviews had reported similar issues with static on various camera models, including the Canon EOS range. I tried a few different troubleshooting steps:Check Connections: I ensured that the microphone was properly connected to the mic input on my camera. Sometimes, a loose connection can lead to interference.Battery Power: The VXR10 is powered by the camera, so there shouldn’t be any battery issues. However, I did check my camera’s battery level just to be safe.Wiring Issues: I carefully examined the cable for any signs of wear or damage. In fact, I even tried a different TRS cable to rule out a faulty cable causing the static.Different Settings: I fiddled with different audio settings on my camera to see if adjustments would help alleviate the static issue. Unfortunately, nothing seemed to make a significant difference.The Final Verdict:Despite my initial excitement, the Movo VXR10 left me quite disappointed. While it was effortless to set up and showed promise with improved audio directionality, the consistent static issue when connected to my Canon EOS Rebel SL3 was a dealbreaker.It’s worth noting that static and interference can sometimes be specific to particular camera models or even particular units of the mic itself. Other users with different camera setups may have had a better experience, but my journey with this product was far from perfect.If you’re considering the Movo VXR10, I would recommend doing a bit of research to ensure compatibility with your specific camera. Ideally, testing it out before committing would be the best route to avoid potential frustrations. In the end, I’m left searching for a more reliable external microphone that can meet my content creation needs without the static headache.Pros:Lightweight and portable designIncludes useful accessoriesGood sound directionalityCons:Static interference on my Canon EOS Rebel SL3Mixed compatibility experiences reported by other usersOverall, I can't fully endorse this microphone, but I believe it may work better for others with different setups. Proceed with caution!

Great Mike , and easy to use , for the price is great . I personally return it back , and brought the Comica VM-20 better sound . Needed a little more stronger range. Cost me twice the price . But love it . The small mike holder is cheep made breaks easy. But the mike itself is excellent.

Ein gutes Mikrofon für Kamera und Handy.Funktioniert ohne Akku und Kabel sind dabei, was das wieder-aufladen erspart.Der Sound passt sich etwas dem Preis an, aber für Einsteiger trotzdem sehr gut.Gerne auf Youtube nach Reviews schauen.

muy correcto

This microphone is a great investment! It connects easily to my Canon G7X, and when comparing the sound with and without it, the difference is noticeable. much clearer and better quality. It’s also affordable, making it an excellent value for improving your audio. Works well and is functional.

Não entrega muita qualidade de áudio. Não senti muita diferença do audio desse microfone para o microfone da câmera.

This review is sort of a preliminerary mini review for The Movo VXR10 Universal Video Microphone as I have not given it a full run for a long time or put it through the kind of tests I would like to. However when I opened the box and took it out the first thing that jumped at me was the design. Its a perfect little shotgun Mic. The dead cat is fuzzy and fits snug agaisnt the mic. The mic has a nice light weight to it so as not to take up too much space and will not weigh down a day pack or any other pack. Toss it in and go. For the newer Cell phones you will need a 3.5 mm to lightening adapter ( no biggie) - It did come with an extra cable which I thought was nice to throw in to the box. so if one breaks or gets lost- there is a backup. Good thinking and sales MOVO. Upon first uses of this little shotgun mic- I noticed imediately that it did what I wanted it for. It took away the backround hiss the built in mic on the iphone 7 makes when in video record mode. ( awful Apple Iphone 7 MICS from what I hear have been a common con- tisk tisk apple- shame on you for making exception products that have overlooked flaws and we consumers spend so much money on your products only to wind up getting the dirty end of the stick because we have to then spend more money on better phones with upgraded tech.- TISK TISK) Anyway I digress. Did a little video with my son at a Musik festival and it performed wonderfully. Nice crisp vocal recording even though the backround music was loud it did came out just as good as my sons words. All in all this product was a worthwhile investment so far. I have one more test I will be putting it through at somepoint soon. which is why at this time I only gave it three stars for noise cancelling. But in the meantime. I love the quality of this product. Definitely happy with it. and glad I did not spend the same amount on the Rode model of the simlar product.To Movo- Please consider me for product testing in the future :)sincerly a happy customer
