STEREO VIDEOMIC PRO INSTRUCTION MANUAL 2. Thank you for investing in the R?DE Stereo VideoMic Pro. The Stereo VideoMic Pro boasts an impressive lineage as R?DE’s latest addition to our celebrated on-camera microphone range. The now legendary R?DE VideoMic was released in 2004 during the MiniDV camera boom, the only microphone of its kind in a market that only offered either cheap inferior quality or high cost shotgun microphones which were not designed to integrate easily with the cameras. R?DE has now been bridging this gap for years by providing microphones which feature broadcast audio quality and integrated shock mounting while maintaining an accessible price tag. The VideoMic has gone on to become the world’s largest selling microphone for consumer cameras. As innovative new video cameras are designed with increasing rapidity, we know the audio devices that match them must also adapt and grow with the technology. The Stereo VideoMic Pro has been designed for ambient audio recording with the latest consumer and prosumer cameras; incorporating remarkable stereo imaging and a more intuitive and resilient shock mounting system than ever before. Of course, the form factor has also been updated to a conveniently compact size, which is perfect for videographers who prefer wide angle lenses. Please take the time to visit and register your microphone for a full ten year warranty.
