Hi all,

I have a 700D and have just bought a Rode VideoMic Pro Plus shotgun mic.

Question: The mic is supposed to turn on when the camera is turned on, mine does not. Instead the mic turns on when I press record in video mode and the audio has a loud bang when it turns on. I have spoken with Rode and they say that it should turn on when the camera is turned on and maybe this could be achieved with a software update.

Has anyone else have the VMP+ mic with a 700D?

Thanks,
Steve
