Saramonic VGM

Saramonic VGM

The Saramonic VGM is a versatile solution for vlogging and video production for smartphones and cameras. A complete stabilisation, editing and microphone bundle, it provides users with everything they need for great sounding and stable video, whether they are filming with smartphones or Compact Digital, Mirrorless, DSLR and even action cameras. This gives content creators and videographers the great sound, stable recording and mounting accessories they need, with flexible customisation options for any shooting style or device.

Getting a stable image is so important, and the VGM offers solid stabilisation for handheld shooting in a lightweight and fully customisable package. It features a 12 cm top rail for shoe mount, with 2x 12 cm sliding bottom rails with 7x 1/4"-20 threaded holes, 2x cold shoe mounts, 2x handles and a wrist strap. It also includes both an adjustable clamp for smartphones and a 1/4"-20 holder for cameras. It can be configured from a minimum width of 12 cm to a maximum width of 31.5 cm, so you can configure the VGM to suit your shooting needs. Whether you need two-handed stabilisation with numerous accessories for a film shoot, or just one-handed stabilisation for a vlog, the Saramonic VGM is the only rig you need.

Great sound is just as important as a stable image, which is why the VGM comes with the Saramonic Vmic Mini. A camera-mountable cardioid condenser mini-shotgun microphone of broadcast quality. It features all-metal construction, a robust integrated shock absorber, an advanced windshield and comes with both TRS and TRRS output cables. It delivers detailed, crystal-clear sound for cameras with a 3.5mm microphone input and smartphones with a 3.5mm headphone jack. No headphone jack on your phone? No problem. You can also easily pair it with a Lightning or USB-C dongle (not included) for mobile devices without a 3.5mm input.

The VGM's shoe mount top rail, sliding bottom rails, cold shoe mounts and handles give users huge mounting and expandability options. Mount a compact LED lamp, an HDMI monitor, an audio mixer, a power bank, a wireless microphone receiver and much more, even simultaneously. Both handles also feature 1/4"-20 threads on the bottom, allowing you to easily mount the VGM on a tripod or stand and add even more mounting options for accessories. The options are virtually endless.
