  • The most asked questions that I've had - "are you using the mic's on the RX100 V" or "does the RX100 V have a built in mic input". The answer to both is no, but I will share a little secret.
    I present to you, the Sparrow Mach I… a run-and-gun shooting rig that I have built for the RX100 V.
    Parts:
    RODE Videomicro amzn.to/2fXH6pO

    This is awesome, I bought all 3 parts immediately after watching this. For me the built-in audio in the RX100v isn't terrible, but there are times where I must be accidentally covering up the microphone or something and it sounds like absolute garbage. Figure it would be better to just invest another 150 bucks and not have to deal with this anymore. Thanks for the recommendations.

    @rejeannantel1185 7 років тому

    Again we get closer to your world Ted. Love these kind of videos where creativity is also about thinking out ways for tackling problems and finding solutions - Solutions that are adapted to your (our) needs.
    Sometimes you don't have to compromise with what you've got, ,you can take it to a next level. Many DIY solutions exist, so why not put our hands into them or try adapting it to your own needs.
    Here you have created a great audio kit, very light and small, gotten a nice rig for mounting these ergonomically for one precise goal - getting quality audio. We saw your thinking process and you give us motives to personalize our own gear for our specific needs.
    Would love to see more of those Ted!

    Hi Ted,
    I've watched this video many times because I own the Sony RX100V and the Rode Videomicro. But they are were purchased for different purposes. But I love this run and gun rig you made. So I decided to get the Zoom H1n and it has done wonders for me! But recently I was gifted the Rode Wireless Go and with this setup, not only it is lighter (I normally use a Sony a6400 setup) and much better sound quality but very packable when I vlog and travel. Thank you for the inspiration!

    I used to go to festivals with a zoom H1 in my pocket and lav mic clamped on my shirt and it gave me some decent audio with my Canon G7X. It's a hassle though, and I look forward to getting a camera with an actual mic jack soon, and probably that cute little mic you used today ;) Although there's only 1 left in Canadian amazon, and I bet someone bought it before I finished typing this sentence lol.

    Did you have the wind filter set to ON on the rx100? I found that took far too much low end out of the audio and still didn't really fix any wind sounds.

    I just found your channel last night and I really appreciate what you are doing here! The lessons, challenges, and tech reviews are great. As an Imaging and Digital art college major graduate with a minor in traditional photography (medium format 2 1/4 Mamiya primarily) ...almost 20 years ago, with some old school AB roll video studio training and early Photoshop, Premiere, & After Effects, I think your channel is so awesome! I became a software developer after college, but I'm now ready to get back to the creative visual side. I've watched a number of your videos today and you have gained a new loyal subscriber!
    I love this setup you put together with the RX100 and external mic system. As I've been getting back into video, I really love the new gimbal footage. I was curious if you've put this rig on a powered gimbal or if you have any recommendations for doing such a thing. You have solved the audio issue with the RX100 and I'm 100% on board with the external mic setup. The last thing I want is that buttery smooth gimbal setup paired with this. Thanks in advance for any advice.

  • @tebasak1
    @tebasak1 6 років тому +1

    I built this and wanted to add a quick thing about the Zoom. It's a great little recorder, but the body is plastic and when I screwed it in I did it too tight and it killed the threads on the thing. What I ended up doing was going to my local store and buying like a 1/4" female adapter and then taking apart the zoom I drilled a hole big enough to fit it and then glued in in there. In addition I picked up a little gasket (like on you have in your bathroom faucet and put it on the screw before screwing it in (compression). It's pretty tight and works great.
    The only beef I have with the Zoom is that you have to hold it down to turn it on, and that gets annoying really quick (on, record, off. On, record, off).
    Also, the led readout is on the bottom of this setup so you gotta flip the camera to see if it's recording. I'll try to flip it so the mic is hanging instead on top.

    This is great, Ted, and you are brilliant. Lusting after an RX100, just got a Drift Ghost S to tide me over and am looking at the Rode Micro... Just can't believe nobody out there has hacked a 3.5mm jack into one of these Sonys... all the gubbins is in there. I've spent months looking for a 1930's Leica that HASN"T had a flash synch added at some point!! A drill and a soldering iron - it can't be that tricky. If any upgraders have an older model they'd be willing to try it out on, I'd be eternally grateful if it can be made to work.

  • @MarcosElMalo2
    @MarcosElMalo2 6 років тому

    I’m impressed with Rode Video Micro. The spread is an advantage in some situations because it’s more forgiving than longer shotgun mics. I mostly use it on my iPhone camera rig (on top of an iographer case) and I’m experimenting with using it on a homemade boom. It’s a great cheap mic that will yield professional or near professional results even in the hands of an amateur.

    Hey Ted! Another great video, thanks for sharing this awesome idea. I was wondering... how do you deal with the very low battery life of the Sony RX V? If i film for more than 14 minutes consecutively, the battery dies... And even using 2 batteries in a day, it doesn't survive a full day of vlogging. I was wondering if there was another battery out there that's compatible and not necessarily official Sony.

    Great information . . . love this idea. Fuji have mic inputs on their APSC compact, but without in body stabilisation it's not deal for vLogging. I chose the Sony RX100v for this reason knowing I may have to sort out the audio in post. You can't really muffle the inbuilt mics on the Sony because inputs are too close to either side of the flash. Your rig sounds very nice :)

      HI. I wanted to get the Sony RX 100 M3 and use a lavalier microphone for the audio. Is it worth it? Or should I go with a DSLR and an external mic? I want to start a youtube channel and at first I don't think so much gear would be needed.

    • @Xoxocooks
      @Xoxocooks 7 років тому

      Popa Silviu RX 100 m3 doesn't have an external mic jack, so you can't plug anything into it. If you want to start a channel, just start shooting with an iPhone and see what you can do. Don't let the gear hold you back.

I've just published my latest video and thanks to your recommended rig the audio quality of my video has increased significantly!! I also found your video on audio syncing very useful and found syncing the audio from the Zoom in Adobe PP CC easy. So thanks again. I've got a long way to go with my channel, but I have at least now made a small improvement in the overall quality.

  • @Allottedaaron
    @Allottedaaron 7 років тому

    I think a lot of UA-camrs do make their videos with this kind of dual system. I make videos outdoors a lot and I have tended to put my trust in a headworn microphone connected to a small field recorder (I use the Tascam DR22WL but I know a lot of people prefer Zoom and the H1 in particular). My thinking was by keeping the sound unit on me is the best option as then the microphone is as close to me as I can get. I have therefore steered away from fitting a shotgun. This suggests that I should rethink that. Lavaliere microphones are fine for when you are not moving but as you say the rustle that comes with movement isn't great. That is why I went for a headworn microphone. It wasn't cheap but I have been very glad of it for the last 18 months or so.

    Cool little rig, I have to say that I've been using my rode mini, and it's great. I run it to the a6300 (which has a mic input) but isn't as nimble as your RX. Also, not sure if you;re a final cut guy, but the latest version makes syncing external audio from different sources a cinch. Great video's as always...oh yeah, ever done a cinemagraph? I'd be curious to see your take on that.

    HI, recently found your channel and subscribed ( awesome information ) !! would love to ask some suggestions if there is any other alternative recorder other than Zoom H1 with similar or cheaper prices? Thank you!!!

    I have similar gears as yours. M5a, Boya mm1 but a sony ICD-SX2000 recorder. I can't think of any cheaper solution like the one you are using. If money is not a concern, of course... SmallRig
    BTW, thanks for showing us your thinking process.

    Lets see which will be the first company to release a point and shoot with similar quality to the sony rx100 but with and external mic input. Take my money!! lol
