🎙️ Movo SMM5-B Universal Microphone and Portable Recorder Shock Mount - Compatible with Zoom H1n, H2n, H4n, H5, H6, Tascam DR-40x, DR-05x, DR-07x and More - Easy 1/4" Mounting (Black) Review

No matter how hard you try, this device won't isolate vibration, finger presses on buttons, or even subtle noises as you move your hands around the camera. Maybe if they used a much softer or more flexible material. I only send it back if it doesn't work on my mic stand. Stay with us, sports fans.

Use with Zoom H5 and Fujifilm XH1 and XT2. It is well made and works as expected. However, the hot shoe mount is non-standard and too wide to fit in a hot shoe. I had to file it to fit. I've tried this mount on my Fujifilm X series cameras, a pair of Nikons and a Canon friend. It was enough to lose the star rating.

Yes, it works to reduce the noise of your handheld recorder. BUT! It's super thin. About 10 minutes into the live recording I had to use the viewfinder to keep the shock in place. He kept leaning against the heavy side of the recorder. He leaned forward enough to touch the handle of the stand I was using. I opted for the larger version, which is much more stable and absorbs shocks just as well.

I bought this unit because it said it would work not only with the Zoom H1n but also with the Zoom H6. While it technically "matches" the H6, this damper can't handle the H6's weight at all. It will break in a few days if you use it with something this size. However, it works great with the tiny and light H1n. I definitely recommend it if you install a recorder on it.

This item is perfect for the Zoom H3-VR. This particular zoom engine produces incredible stereo and ambisonic audio (if you want to sync it to post) but is damn sensitive to noise. This shock-absorbing Move mount eliminates the problem of noise transmission and provides excellent isolation with any reasonable amount of movement. It also helps to position the mic high enough above the viewfinder of my Fujifilm XT-30 that I can stick my head in. not to the point. I can finally record on camera…

At first I wasn't impressed with this unit. I felt the dampers were probably too stiff to be of much value. Boy was I wrong. The device significantly reduced noise when my H5 zoom was mounted on a manual grip. For example, I had to exert myself to make noise at work, which was registered. I haven't used the cold shoe that came with the device, but I appreciate the opportunity; The rest of the parts were interchangeable enough to be easily mounted directly onto a small tripod. The attachment…

I have several different Tascam digital audio recorders (DR-07, DR-05) and wanted a lighter shock mount for video recording. I usually bring pistol mics directly to the camera, but I also like to place the Tascam close to the subject as a backup. In the past I've found that recorders placed on the tabletop absorb every impact and adjustment of my objects' position, so I made some homemade shock absorbers that were effective but cumbersome and ugly. That seems to be my answer. The Movo has good…
