BEST Lavalier Microphone for DJI Mic 2? 9 Mics UNDER $100 Tested

Ғылым және технология

The DJI Mic 2 is a great wireless microphone system, but unless you're holding the transmitter right up to your face, it leaves a lot to be desired. In Today's video, I tested 9 different Lav Mics to help you determine which is the best under $100

    Agreed - we use the Shure MVL with the original DJI Mic. In fact the opposite issue is that the Rode Lavalier can't be used with the original DJI Mic because it has RF inference. kzread.info/dash/bejne/iKeam9CCmbDNgKQ.htmlsi=A8R_uQB-z9HamY3X&t=153

    Ive been using that mv101 for a while and always felt it was under rated. Too bad companies don't actually make a lav mic like this. I use mine while shooting daily vlogs using my action cameras and it sounds great after you join the single channel output to both left and right. Such a great mic

    Thanks for the review, I was thinking about buying two DJI microphones. But I think I'll stick with the AGPTEK Lavalier microphones I bought 1 year ago. They are still great, have all the accessories and are the cheapest ever (strange) only 17 euros.

    the Shure MVL works perfectly with the DJI mic1. I don't understand their decision to change the 3.5mm port. That said, i still think the Shure MVL sounded the best with the DJI mic1/2.

    @@kylemeshna I have the version of the mic that has a gold locking ring. With regards to ensuring a secure insertion, my model allows the ring to be pushed all the way up towards the mic capsule. It kinda wedges up there an lets the TRS plug be fully inserted (as opposed to some locking rings which prevent that in non-locking jacks). Other than that, I've been using mine daily for a little while now and it's been a really fun upgrade from the built-in TX mic.

    @@WayneRECsInteresting! the locking ring on my version does go all the way to the top, but it can still be a bit finicky and doesn't always connect fully, so there's been a handful of times where I don't get any audio into the transmitter. Have to unplug and plug it back in a few times and then it works.

    I have the Sony Mic but on Sony's wireless system. I really don't feel it's that bad. Is it possible that it sounds better on their system then DJI Mic2? I'm looking into switching because of the internal recoding, now that DJI has the adapter for Sony Hotshoe.
