I am traveling soon and want to do a mini documentary of my grandma, and also just record scenery, would this mic be perfect for that? Btw I have a sonya7cii, and great video!
Stick with the Sony A7C II, I’ll probably pick one up soon too. The size and image quality from A7C II is unbeatable paired with a solid lens like Tamron 20-40mm f2.8 or Sony 24-50mm f2.8
@@Fredo.heavyy Thanks man! I was also wondering if I should purchase the DJI Mic 2 for this project of mine or a regular shogun mic like the Sony ecm-m1? Btw you should get the camera, it's amazing!
Am I the only person who's DJI adapters don't work? Whenever I plug the adapter in it just shows the iphone/phone graphic to confirm. Not the adapter symbol like yours shows. I'm using FX30 and FX3
Bro it's crazy how many takes I go through. It's tough to keep that energy up by the last take. Man I wish fuji would allow more accessories like this. Especially when the tascam XLR adapter works through their hot shoe.
Great video - I’m also rocking the FX30 with the mic 2 adapter, though mine won’t show up with the camera icon when it slides in - only computer. It’s a pain and doesn’t transmit audio unless the camera icon is showing. Is this firmware issue?
Bro! You’re a G. not a deal breaker that it doesn’t face forward because at least it opens the view to the audio levels on screen, which the cable blocks.
Thank you, though I'd suggest not shitting on other UA-camrs - especially if you're not going to provide anything pareticularly new or revealing about this product in yours. I've seen at least ten videos on this adapter, so I can attest to this.
You watched at least 10 videos on the topic and still were looking for info? So mines was the 11th? How many of those other videos actually tested the device with both transmitter and in an outdoor capacity? Seems like my criticism on the other creators was accurate.
I am thankful for UA-camrs like @Fredo.heavyy who are not beholden to the corporations for continued pre-release fluff where they maximize the pros and minimize the cons. Sick of the "honest review in exchange for product" videos.
Their fix for a rotatable was not thought of and I saw that when they introduced so Limitto Models saying the ZV1M2 is not good enough, the DJI mic 2 module is good enough if you like it not me
@@Fredo.heavyyI guess TRS splitter is my only option then. So many times I want a shotgun mic for backup or capturing extra audio of ppl not mic’d up during more run and gun scenarios
@@Fredo.heavyy MacBook pro specs 16Gb Ram? M1 or M2 ??? Second thing, Is it difficult to switch from windows to Mac Os system... I want to learn macos but is it too difficult or easy to learn???
It is in fact listed on their website that the 6700 is compatible: dl.djicdn.com/downloads/DJI_Mic_2/20240426/supporteddocs/DJI%20Mic%202%20Camera%20Adapter%20Compatibility%20List.EN.pdf
@@Fredo.heavyy it is, but when you go to set it up on the small screen on the transmitter, it’s not listed as a option, and it’s doesn’t work with my 6700
It doesn't make sense for it not to work on those camera as sony own mic that mount on it is listed on their website as compatible with all of those cams.

Haven’t heard of that issue but a few people have faulty hot shoes.
I use a q-tip with rubbing alcohol to clean the contacts of my shot shoe
Bro it's crazy how many takes I go through. It's tough to keep that energy up by the last take. Man I wish fuji would allow more accessories like this. Especially when the tascam XLR adapter works through their hot shoe.
For the a7iii, what solution do you give me for something similar?
Question... Can I use this adapter and also a cage with top handle on a6700 (center shoe) at same time?
Not the best person to ask as I don’t have A6700 but most modern cages accommodate for it.
Great video - I’m also rocking the FX30 with the mic 2 adapter, though mine won’t show up with the camera icon when it slides in - only computer. It’s a pain and doesn’t transmit audio unless the camera icon is showing. Is this firmware issue?
Yes it’s fixed with latest firmware update
Damn... I bought this for the Sony ZV-1 and didn't know it wasn't compatible. I guess back to using the wire until I upgrade the camera!
Yea it’s limited via software so you buy the pricey camera.
Make me want to pick up a ZVE10 used for the low.
Bro! You’re a G.
not a deal breaker that it doesn’t face forward because at least it opens the view to the audio levels on screen, which the cable blocks.
i have a sony 6400 and that has a mi shoe mount as well. it should work, right? love the vids by the way 🫡
It doesn’t, they restricted it via software to newer models 6700 etc

@@Nayddoh you sound soft, we tell the truth on my channel.
@@Fredo.heavyy lol soft 😂 from what I just said?
Nice vid. Too bad it's not compatible with the ZV-1 cameras. I'd buy one right now.
Works with ZV-1 and ZV-E10 confirmed.
Gonna have to test the ZV-1 II but I think it will.
@@Fredo.heavyyThanks for confirming that. Ordering now.
Works with an A7iii ??
@@Fredo.heavyy UPDATE - adapter is not compatible with the Sony ZV-1. A damn shame.
@@ronontech I don’t understand why they did that.
felt like i was interrupting something at the end lmao great video!
Hi Fredo this adapter could be compatible with a Sony A6600 my old camera has the same audio interface as A6700 too.
They have limited compatibility to only “newer” Sony camera.
The A6600 isn’t going to work according to them.
loved this vid

Thank you for always keeping it real brother!
If you use this adapter and also a cam mounted shotgun mic plugged into mic in on the cam what happens?
The adapter overrides all audio input, so shotgun mic would be rendered useless.
@@Fredo.heavyyI guess TRS splitter is my only option then. So many times I want a shotgun mic for backup or capturing extra audio of ppl not mic’d up during more run and gun scenarios
@@Noblinka pick up a Zoom M3 or Zoom M4
It is compatible with the Sony FDR-AX53 camera.
can you use the DJI mic 2 transmitter only via bluetooth ?( without the transmitter)
let's go big man
Good information brother ❤ Which system do you recommend for 4K video editing? Windows laptop or MacBook pro or PC??? Thanks in advance.
I use MacBook Pro and adobe premier with good results
@@Fredo.heavyy MacBook pro specs 16Gb Ram? M1 or M2 ??? Second thing, Is it difficult to switch from windows to Mac Os system... I want to learn macos but is it too difficult or easy to learn???
It take a bit of time but it’ll be worth it.
I have an M1 Max w/ 1TB of storage and 16GB of ram.
@@Fredo.heavyy thanks my brother ♥️
fyi it doesn't work with the 6700. Its not even listed as a compatible camera unfortunately

Will it work on the Sony A7IV?
Yes
Will it work with a7iii?
@@chasfordsandy1117 no in my case
Work in Sony A6600?
Anyone know if you can use this with a cage on a ZV-E1?
07:00... probably the loveliest fail of the year, and perhaps beyond !
Thanks for the update! Video clean and I appreciate that you covered everything I needed to know👌🏽
No problem 👍
Why not for panasonic S5ii
Is that an Apple Studio monitor behind you?
Is a dell monitor.
Good work Fredo
not compatible with sony a7 4.. so sad
Great review! Very helpful.
how about A7IV ??
The Sony a6600 does not work with this adapter. I've tested it.
Yea idk why they played us like that.

Nice video Fredo. You sound cool even if you do have a cold and it was funny when your girlfriend made an appearance, you've got a good rapport 👌
