Hello,
I got both an Osmo Mobile 3 and the Rode VideoMic Me-L, looking forward to getting digital audio input from a directional mic while shooting with the Osmo.
To my surprise, what caught my attention the most on the Osmo, its compactness, turned to be its weak point for my setup: if I face the mic to the front camera, its hard to balance the phone (iPhone 8) and you see the Osmo struggles with the weight, as phone+mic equals the maximum supported 200g.
It gets worse if I face the mic to the back camera. In this case, it does not even fit the Osmo, as the mic hits the roll motor arm.
So I am left with two options:
1 - Return either mic or gimbal and get different hardware. In this case, I would rather return the mic as I really like the Osmo compactness, so I would like to ask the opinion of the more seasoned osmo/mic combo users here, for what mic to get and its related hardware for best osmo3+iphone8 performance
2 - Keeping both Osmo and mic. In this case I would like to ask for advice on how this can be achieved
Thank you for your time and thoughts
