Product Information

Full details

The Rycote InVision On Camera Shock Mount is designed for videographers and content creators who need to mount microphones directly onto their camera's hot shoe. Its key benefit is effectively isolating microphones from camera handling noise and vibrations, leading to cleaner audio. A potential caveat is its specific design for camera hot shoes, limiting its use with other mounting systems. This mount offers a compact, lightweight, and durable solution for improving on-camera audio quality.

FAQs

Can I mount this shock mount on a tripod or boom pole?

No, the Rycote InVision On Camera Shock Mount is specifically designed to attach to a camera's hot shoe mount and does not include threads for tripod or boom pole attachment.

What size microphones does this mount support?

The mount typically accommodates microphones with standard 3/8" or 5/8" thread mounts, often via included or separate adapters. Check your microphone's specifications.

Will this mount reduce wind noise?

The primary function of this shock mount is to reduce vibrations and handling noise. For wind noise reduction, you will still need a windscreen or blimp appropriate for your microphone.

Is the shock mount heavy?

No, it is designed to be compact and lightweight, adding minimal bulk and weight to your camera setup.

How do I clean the shock mount?

Wipe the shock mount with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid using liquids or abrasive cleaners.

What is the warranty period for this product?

Please refer to the manufacturer's documentation or retailer for specific warranty information, as this can vary.

Troubleshooting

Microphone feels loose in the mount.

Ensure the microphone's thread is fully engaged and tightened. If using an adapter, verify it is securely attached to both the microphone and the mount.

No noticeable reduction in handling noise.

Confirm the shock mount is correctly attached to the camera's hot shoe. Check that the microphone is securely screwed into the mount. Ensure the microphone itself is functioning correctly.

Mount does not fit camera hot shoe.

Verify that your camera has a standard ISO 518 hot shoe. The Rycote InVision is designed for this standard; other shoe types may not be compatible.
