being able to set the gain on each individual transmitter is HUGE. Some people just boom louder than others if you're using 2 mics and that was such a grip I had with Rode
Love the design and the interface looks great!
Great review! The internal backup recording is clutch! Definitely think I'll be switching to the DJI from the Rode pretty soon 🙌
Subscribed for how thorough and well done this video is. Thanks!
and if you want to hear to camera, with lavaliers of all sorts and to PC I do that. I don't know about thorough but entertaining, yes
Didnt get to hear these when we were filming this but they sound pretty darn good. I like them better then the Rode Wireless Go ii as well.
Loved it bro. Nice energy, helpful review. Keep Going. Immediately subscribed!
If you purchased this how did you avoid the audio hiss to camera? or do you use mobile phone, cause if you do it is impressive... really good mic but flaky 3.5mm out I find... do a search, audio hiss dji mic, I am not making this up
Dope to see another filmmaker from Dallas ! Looking forward to running into to you one day bro!
Been looking for a good system for when I do some traveling and I want to vlog my travels. The case alone is a HUGE win. Will be buying one sooj
The best test was at the end of the video when Sidney moving his hand around with the mic and I realized that only pick up sounds from 1 direction and close.
I like the Coffee and Creators part!
Really nice video. Thank you.
We bought the dji mic system for our channel and we love it! We even attached a shot gun mic to it and used it as a wireless boom mic!
and how you avoid all that audio hiss? My Xvive U5 has far cleaner audio in the silence.
thanks for your video and the different scenarios it was great!
I wanted to know how well it captured sounds around you and people speaking to you who didn't have a mic
It captures everything, couldn't believe it but the hiss! It's bad for a high end mic, outside it's not so noticeable.
I am so behind on watching my creators! I have been waiting for this video for quite some time awesome job and shout out to my boy Kyle freaking Watts!
And yes I have no idea why they discontinued the rice Krispy treat cereal not once but twice!! They are totally losing out on money!
Great video as always, cant seem to get mine to work with the Apple Camera app tho, have you tried?
Hey Sidney,
DJI just updated the firmware v02.00.72.80 that gives you to the option to have it record automatically and also adjust the levels of the LED brightness.
I bought this over the rode wireless 2 strictly because of the accessories it came with and the independent gain control for each transmitter and the receiver. I LOVE it!
I have also bought it for the same reasons. Have you had any issues with phasing when both mics are recording?
What is phasing
I haven’t had any phasing/interference/noise happen at all.
lol, I literally got it yesterday and so far I gotta say it's really good. for youtube/iphone/gopro usage it appears almost perfect.
Yeah it’s amazing!!
I really wanted to see what the ambient noise in the background sounds like, so thank you for that! I’m going to thailand in a few weeks and it’s important to me to be able to capture the sounds of the busy streets.. thinking about giving this product a try!
Did you try it? If yes, conclusions?
@@sorlindquist i may not have time to play around with it too much because it frustrated me off the get-go a fair amount of hissing still.. and the sound was very quiet even though the receiver gain was pumped up to +6db. I am now trying the sony ecm-b10 shotgun mic
@@LukeGeeTravels I got annoyed with the annoying hissing of the mic as well. Great to mobile phone and PC but I wanted it for my digital camera. My Xvive U5 is better silence wise. Super good sound other than the hiss that even showed up in my internal recording
@@sparkestudio i ended up trying out the sony native mic, ec -b10m and loved the results so now i use it to capture sounds and other thinfs
@@LukeGeeTravels 👍 I am going to make some videos of how to remove hiss without lowering sound quality. Maybe I should set my site on that sony
Great combo with the new rode lav go II!
I'm a rebel like that lol
Thank you for the great review. You definitely convinced me to buy the DJI Mic 😃.
How is that working out for you? Cause for me, I am returning mine, the hiss to camera is awful. If someone has a solution I would love to know before I return mine.
@@sparkestudio I heard it's the Aux cable try getting a nicer cable and try that supposed to fix it
@@thetravelinfool148 when it comes to self noise I am simply picky I guess. I used DJI's newer included cable and other aux cables. I did find that if the DJI had self noise due to it not liking a lavalier even the internal recording had self noise.
I love how much of my bald head is in this video 😆 The DJI system looks great! I’ve been using a Sennheiser G3 , but it would be nice to have the backup recording and two mic features of this.
The G3 are still great!!!
Like your review.. great job.. as i am a also a food vlogger from Pakistan 🇵🇰.. very useful... thinking to buy a dual mis setup... i thing i found a good one.. thanks 😊
appreciate the review...I have saramonic lav kit BUT they can be hit or miss and if I need to do more heavy duty broadcast material MAYBE I'll get Sennheiser but these DJI's sound pretty darn good. will try 'em out...should work for my docu stuff and skits just fine. WAIT A TIC...WHERE how did you rig your mic at 6:44?
Hey! Great video ! Loved this
Glad you liked it!!
Dji mic is awesome
What do you think of the DJI Mic??????
Hi. Why it doesn’t turn on/off automatically (like rode video mic pro) when i turn on/off my camera ? Do i have to turn it on/off separately every time while connected to camera?
Great video on DJI Mic! Question. Does the transmitter always record -6db? Is that why the sound is so low when you record directly to transmitter? Can you tell us what the volume settings were?
As far as I understood from this and other Dji Mic reviews I watched, it seems like the transmitter simply records at -6 db as I haven't heard anybody mentioning the possibility to increase it. If that's the case, I can't see it as a big issue and also I presume it might be something that can be solved on a future firmware release (?) I hope it helps and please check other videos to confirm this and let me know in this comment if you wish :)
Amazing video
I'm not very tech savy so please excuse my question lol.
so the internal recording is like a backup BUT the videos you record on your phone WILL have the sound on the video?
Rode sound quality is top notch
If using both transmitters for 2 people, can it support adding TC to camera like with a tentacle sync?
Hi Sidney! Great video! Could you please tell me what is the exact RODE Lav mic model that you are wearing inside your white t-shirt starting at 1:12 of the video? The audio was fantastic combined with the DJI Mic Transmitter. But there are quite a few different RODE Lav mics available, so please let me know about the name of the exact model you used. Many thanks!
I'd like to know as well
what rode lav mic did you buy?
Is it works for live stream like tiktok live. Zoom. Google meet etc ?
Am I the first viewer OMG 😍
By the way love your video’s dude they are amazing
The way you give reviews clears everything
Thank you
Thank you so much!!!
It would be interesting if you do a comparison test of DJI Wireless vs Picogear Picomic2!
How does everyone feel about the noticable large block when the DJI mic is on the subject? its sticks out
AND even with the new firmware this mic system has a lot of hiss when connected to a camera. I leave my camera gain low and test several microphones with the same gain level through out and even use the internal recording just to prove it. Outside I don't notice the hiss, likely because of all the noise outside but with good headphones it's totally noticeable and not acceptable at this price point... However other than hiss audio quality is amazing and to mobile phone and PC it is far better.
Nice.
Very nice video. How good it is recording from an iPhone? Watching from México 🇲🇽 !
I'd assume great to iPhone cause it is great to mobile phone, I posted a video. Wear headphones to hear on the video where I show my disappointment of this... the issue is camera and internal recording. Mobile and PC audio... USB that is impressive.
I heard you can’t really put the on a camera cage as the receiver doesn’t actually lock on…is this true?
Whoah! You're at Dealey Plaza. Too bad we didn't have these mics around in 1963. Could've found out where the bullets came from by triangulating the sound from these DJI mics.
Hi Sidney I bought DJI wireless mic but it's not recording sound. It's showing sound waves on the receiver while in am speaking but there is no sound in video. I have tested it on iPhone xr, one plus and canon mach 2 but there is no sound in video but the receiver is picking up sound as sound waves r reflecting. Wot might be the issue. Plz help
Hey man, any idea why it sounds terrible when clipped to my collar/neck but sounds great when in front of my mouth? Mines completely unusable and sounds muffled when clipped onto my collar facing my neck? Please help 😊
Did you use the backup track when walking away from the camera during the range test? For me it cuts out instantly once I turn around, even within like 10-20 feet. Not happy with that.
Do you still have that problem?
@@MartMadison connection is quite bad, simple table in between already distorts the audio
How do you put the windmuff on?
Can i use it for Canon M50 Mark ii ? And 1 more question, if i use this mic, will the sound recorded by the mic be the the sound of the video and not the different audio file ?
If you have a mic in port it's would record to your camera direct and the internal recording has to be moved to the recording and place in the video manually. I'm personally disappointed by the audio hiss and am returning mine. To mobile phone and to PC it is impressive and audio distance is great and the mic is great other than the hiss. I used it to record a video and had to edit out the hiss, not something I should have to do with an expensive microphone.
Interesting
Can you try out that new Insta 360 camera I would like to know your thoughts before I get it
Testing it out now actually!!
@@SidneyDiongzon Cool looking forward to the review
Can you actively listen to the audio as it is being recorded to verify the quality is good enough for a particular shot?
there is a line out and a headphone out. I'm not impressed... when using to camera but one issue even using newest firmware but to USB devices this this is nuts, think DJI has an issue with the 3.5mm DACs
6:49 has a lot of external noise, I think they need a noise cancelling feature
Does the rode wireless go 2 sound better?
Does the transmitters record a backup track when used stand alone or is it only a backup track when the receiver records the main track?
It can record as stand alone
do these work with the Osmo mobile 6 gimbles?
what happened with the twice behind brick shots?
should have shown the comparison with windshield and without together with the VS lav mic
I do on my original review of that, with time stamps. I'm returning mine, you'd hear why in my latest video.
RODE offers a Handle for their competitor mic
Oh wow the DJI one is soo much cleaner and deep than rode
I only wish it was "cleaner". To PC and mobile phone it is and details are super crisp as well as the audio hiss. I have a video showing it, wear some headphones to hear for yourself.
"DEEGEEEYE"
Can I plug in an external battery to the receiver as I´m filming? I need 10 to 12 hours filming time.
Yes you can, I did that. The microphones are the ones with shorter batter life. Hope you plan to use a mobile phone or record outside or to PC. The hiss is the reason I am returning mine, firmware updated and all.
@@sparkestudio Thx! I´m using my Gopro. I got my DJIs already and it works pretty good with an external battery :)
I wish DJI released a single transmitter at a lower price. I don't need 2 of them!
The audio that's suppose to come from my receiver is non existant. I turned down my camera gain, plugged in the reciever to record, and I litterally get zero audio. Please advise.
Curious did DJI get to review this before posting? Only ask since you mentioned it’s sponsored by them. Thanks for the review, looks great so far.
Yeah I showed it them a while ago, but couldn't post because of stock inventory. It's back in stock now!
Hey bro, what lens did you use for this video ?
Sony 16-35mm GM!
@@SidneyDiongzon How are you avoiding the annoying audio hiss in the silence? To mobile phone no problem, to PC no problem, didn't even notice outside probably due to all the natural noise but where there is silence I can clearly hear it and compare it to other microphones with the same 6 out of 30 camera gain throughout. For the price, this isn't good. I have the newest firmware installed and the newer straight cable from DJI.
So is there no way for me to see the receiver info if I’m recording somebody else? Because of the way it faces
I guess not..unless you kept turning around. Or there swirl design of the transmission 😅
How could I join coffee and creators group?
Interested in this too
I bought the DJI mics and sent them back. Maybe just my unit but noise was far worse than rode wireless go and nowhere near my sennheiser set
7:10 How is that mic connected to you behind your shirt?
He probably taped a Lav mic underneath
As a creator u should have also informed us that DJI mic can also be used with an iPhone n android phones using the adaptor which comes with the case & should have done mic test with the smartphones as well bcoz not everyone uses the DSLR
If you want to see that, I test all of that. One the reason I started doing microphone testing it I was annoyed how everyone would just test on one device.
Zoom h5 here… what’s that again? 😝😸 lol
Second version soon? It’s been out for a year
Id they make a second version I hope they clean up the audio hiss. The USB is fine, there is something wrong with their 3.5 DACs of this device... I own this and I have videos to prove it.
Test🙄 Test🙄 1🤨 2🦆 3💪
You cant compare the mic’s when one is positioned on your chest and the other one in your hand in a different angle. These angle-increments are highly sensitive when capturing audio. 🤷🏻♂️
is the battery replaceable?
Nope
I bought the DJI last week and used it on a shoot, the best difference from my Rode GO 2 is that it doesn't clip as easily.
The DJI is a bit less sensitive so you need a little bit more gain.
In a small conference room yesterday I ran the Rode GO and the 2 DJIs and one DJI TX from about 5 meters away was getting some drop outs but the internal recording was perfect.
I have tested with Rode lav go and lav 2 and smartlav+ and all are compatible.
It doesn't work well with the Sony lapel mic from the UWP kit, it's like half the volume of the other mics.
Overall I'm looking forward to testing the DJI system more.
It works fine with the Rode Lavalier II once you remove the sleeve. I tested with a pile of wired lavaliers but most of mine are locking type.
Can I lock the DJI mic from accidentally turning off? If we enable recording, can it be blocked so as not to accidentally disable recording?
I bought one and I get a high pitched interference when using it with a Sony A7Siii. I have no problems when using it with a A7iii. DJI customer service was of no help trying to solve the problem.
You gotta try some different 3.5mm cable from DJI to your camera, that should solve it.
@@VideoUpskill I tried different cables with the same results. Strange that I don’t have the problem with a A7iii, only the A7Siii.
@@WingMan1964 The A7S3's audio jack has bad shielding against interference apparently. It's a common issue.
Use a long cable and keep as far away as possible from the camera.
@@MantraConnexions i shouldn’t have to do that though. I should be able to mount the receiver on the hot shoe of the camera and I shouldn’t get any interference. Most people are able to use it this way.
I got my DJI Mic too and I’m just trying to work out the perfect settings. My voice is loud and deep and I’m having problems with clipping. I already reduced the gain to -2 on my transmitter but im still hearing clipping now and then. I just released a video about the DJI Mic where im talking about that. Does anyone have any good ideas on how to go about that? Thanks 🙌🏼
reduce the gain in your camera or set the levels to auto
@@Sergei__v thank you for your advice. We mostly use the DJI Mic with iPhones and we don’t have the ability to change the gain there. I wonder if there are any other strategies one can use to get this right?
Choose the "video pro" mode, there you can adjust all the camera settings as well as microphone gain
@@Uzumachii what is this mode that you are referring to? The stock iPhone app doesn’t have any settings. And other apps like FilmicPro give some options but not enough to fix the problem with the DJI Mic. What is it that you are referring to?
@@HaveYourADVENTURE place the microphone at chest level. I ended up using a lavalier for much of my recording since it picks up every single sound. I'm also returning mine cause to camera there are hiss issues. To my Android mobile phone it is actually far superior than it is too camera.
OK I watched before I was about to buy. This convinced me not too. Thanks!
what discouraged you?
@@MichaelKucher haha. The title of the video. I mean if I was buying this, why do I need to watch this before buying? Silly video title.
another wind test with no wind- genius
you sound fun at parties
This audio is edit
A lot of money for something that sounds like phone call. Is it really so difficult to make something that sounds natural? A cheap electret capsule and a cable would sound better.
"this video is sponsored by dji" . instant skip
Do you really need to add annoying background music???
Haha. Dgi....
I’m sorry DJI but, after waiting several months to buy it and not being able because the product wasn’t available, I ended up buying from the competition… next time, be sure to have enough stock when you launch a product.
I just bought one from their website, they didn’t say they were out of stock?
It’s been available from lots of places
That’s what happens but I think you really should have waited…it’s so much better then the Rode
Dudes got no patience these days
More demand 😂
Why it doesn’t turn on/off automatically (like rode) when i turn on/off my camera ? Do i have to turn it on/off separately every time while connected to camera?
How can I contact you
