Creator Reality: Using a shotgun mic for tough recording situations? RODE Video Micro Review and Comparison

I bought yet ANOTHER microphone – this time it’s the RODE Video Micro! In this video, we’re testing it out in my “YouTube studio” AKA porch, with its fans and hard surfaces [lots of reverb!], as well as out in the field and specifically for wind. I’m also comparing it to the RODE Wireless Go, the Purple Panda, and the built-in mic on the Nikon Z30.
