Is your Phantom Suppy turned on. You Mic may need the 48V to operate properly.

Also check the monitor level, too high can generate quite a bit of noise

Also, check your record levels and make sure the air con is off!

Hello
I found out what is causing the hum, its not a hum
the mic picks a vibration from the Dr 100 or could be the drive running in the dr100
the mic is great the sound is rich and full
I guess i'll have buy a Rodes SM5 mic holder
because as soon as you unscrew the 110 mic holder the noise goes away
If you have any better ideas please me know

thanks
Joe

Hello
i called Rodes today
the Sm5 is for a boompole only
the shaft on the SM5 is not long enough to mount to the camera mic mount
if i was shooting just tape it would be fine
so be it. have to find another way

thanks
Joe

there are quite a few effective isolating microphone holders that could screw into the 1/4" thread hole on top of the handle. With some intermediate hardware, the front light shoe could also be an option. It will be bulkier and more delicate that the standard rig - which I'm surprised isn't more readily removable/replaceable.

You might try sandwiching in extra insulation there, and also looking at the mount rig for the DR-HD100 - what type of bracket are you using?

On camera mics are a compromise, but sometimes a necessary one.

I've got the Rode fishing pose/camera mount from BH ($49) works great. I don't have a hard drive.. but zero (BIG ZERO) noise (finger, tripod, control mevoment) is transfered to the mic. the mount fits in the hot shoe... I tried the mic without the mount and yes, lots of control noises and whirling etc. so I think it will work fine. I got mine as part of a kit i think.. but I think it was about $49 just by it's self. well worth it.

Hello
I called B&H and ordered the RODES SM5 SHOCK MOUNT

The guys from pro video dept saids it will work.
I'm hoping that it will stop the drive noise/vibration from the DR 100
I'll let you know how it works out

Changing the subject:

Have any of you that own the 110/200/250
had the little mic wire clamp in back and below the mic holder
BREAK.
I've gone though 2 of them. I BABY this Camera
its seem to me if they were made with a thicker plastic they would not break so easy
i checked the price on them from JVC $16.98 (WOW)

Just wondering

Hello

iv'e change the cylindrical mount adapter on the SMD 5 suspension
its made of steel and very heavy and being that its 1.06 inchs in diameter
its was alot of strand on the mic holder/clamp
I went to home depot and got dowel 7/8 diameter same as my Rodes NTG-1
fits perfect in the mic holder line up the holes on the SMD5 suspension
mark em on the dowel and

drill the holes
I just uses the screws that came with the unit
i painted the dowel so it matches the rodes supension mic holder
what a difference , no more pressure on the jcv mic holder.

if i was just using tape no problem but with the Dr hd100
all kinds of noise

heres some pics
Joe
