Re: Panasonic Lumix G7 and Rode VideoMic Pro Audio Not Working

I have the identical issue with my G7 and Rode VideoMic Pro. You can barely hear the audio and that’s with the Rode’s gain set at -20 and in-camera at -12, but any combination produces no noticeable movements of mic levels shown on the display, except when using the built-in mic.

BTW, no problem using the Rode with a Nikon D3300, so I know the VideoMic Pro works.

Anyone have ideas or solutions?
