Hello there! Would you recommend buying this microphone today? Ty

im sorry but the custom eq sounds awful. supper muddy and dark.

I bought the Zero Y version since it is Arca-Swiss compatible without any need for an adapter plate. Tripod seems to be well-made, and the bottom leg is not pencil thin as in most travel tripods. All of my L-brackets (RRS, off-brand, and home made) clamp in nicely with no looseness. My only gripe is the center column in that it takes a feat of strength to get mine to raise. I sprayed some silicone lube on the column which seemed to help, but not by much. Also, an o-ring popped out and I have no idea where it came from until I disassemble and take a look. Anyone else have this problem with the center column?

Godox sounds better to me!!!

I can't really tell the differnce in audio, I mean the Godox I thought had a little higher pitch, but I was really digging to hear it. But I really need that internal recording on the transmitter as there were so much times when I was rushing on a shoot and did not, for whatever reason, connect the reciever up properly to the camera, and had to use the internal recording to save my shot. Great video and comparison!

I stopped this after 3:45. The amount of saying "like" and just general not understanding of the product is EXTREMELY off-putting. Make a plan for your video before you record. I love the DJI products, but this video is terribly planned.

I'm perusing this, thanks for the instruction and tips. If you can have 1 lens with a ZV-E10, is the tamron 11-20mm a good option for real estate videography?

I am trying to get my hands on this microphone set for quite a while, unfortunately DJI is not responding. Sounds nice

Exactly the video I was looking for. Thanks for your input

I too am a gearhead

It's strange to me that these tripods are 2 of maybe 4 on the market that actually fit inside a backpack.

I subscribed, you do too man

How do you like it so far? I’m thinking of moving from a ZV-E1 to this for my streaming and content. I love my ZV-E1 but it sits on tripod and still using a kit lens. I don’t know if I want to go all-in on FF when the difference between both is so small now and less expensive with ASPC.

Thank you for the review. I have one question, what did you do to the flap that opens up? It is not on your camera, broke it off or it's removeable? That flap is my biggest issue connecting an external mic to my Action 4.

Congrats on the new camera Paul! The ZV-E10 ii looks great and I think it's going to be very popular! Looking forward to what you make with the camera. cheers!

Just updated mine a few days ago and already used it on a shoot for an interview. The update is an absolute game changer I really don’t need to make any adjustments in post anymore unless I need to isolate any sounds or adjust the volume itself. Love that they’re still trying to improve their products this way to obtain better audio quality.

hw u doing?- that's amazing done. farewell,

Don't have one, but great video! Love the comparisons 🤙

Definitely sounds brighter on the high ends but to "me" it seems to have lost some bottom end. Humm, I'll have to chew on this a bit on whether or not to update.

Great review. A year later... which wireless mic set do you still use/recommend?

Also, ECM-B1M sounds too good honestly

You absolutely need f/0.95 for vlogging 😤 /s

So, I know it wasn't the main topic of the video but that DJI mic sounds amazing outdoors 👌 The internal mic wasn't that bad either 👍 Would be cool to see how Adobe Podcast cleans up that internal mic audio.

The b1m and the ecm-m1 are still my favorite. The auto gain setting is worth every penny. Plus it’s the best sounding mic for sure

I love grey poupon 😄 Awesome unbox and first look man, can't wait to see the content you produce from it!

Congratulation Paul ! I'm looking forward to your full video review of it. I have the ZV-E10 mark I and it's been a great little camera and really thinking about this as a replacement for it but a bit hesitant because I already have the FX-30 also

Congrats Paul!!!

I just got mine yesterday. In white. Because nobody takes white cameras seriously. I often film in crowds so being unprofessional helps keep it natural. White may also not overheat as fast when doing 60p in the sun. Hope you enjoy it. I am about to.

Nice job Paul. Excited for you to do some content. I notice that people really love the aps-c videos!

Great little set up there!

This test was pretty good for being on a tripod... But what about hand holding, how is the handling noise?

Excellent review, just wanted to add that Coman light G has more separated legs when opened, the angles are wider, which means the tripod is more stable. That is why the ulanzi zero is taller when opened.

Thank you, thank you, thank you sir.

Sounds Great Especially for the price

Hi, I just got a DJI Action 4 today! My issue is that I have the Rode Video Go II and I noticed a big difference in audio levels when plugging it into my brand new DJI Action 4 with the DJI USB-C to USB-C charging cable provided versus a Rode SC2 TRS to TRS cable with a third party USB-C adapter to connect to the Action 4. The USB-C to USB-C cable provided in the box has quieter but smoother sounding audio and I had to boost the gain setting on the DJI Action 4 from the default of 6 to like 18 to get it to sound at the same level as when using the Rode SC2 cable with the USB-C adapter at the default gain setting of 6 on the Action 4. Could it be that I need a Rode SC-16 USB-C to USB-C cable because the DJI charging cable is not providing a proper audio signal? I suppose my third party USB-C to 3.5mm audio adapter might be providing too much of a signal too. . . It was a $22 item on Amazon that clearly states that it can be used to plug in mics for audio.

Good video! Good to know I can personalize it.

It may be a crazy question, but can users have their own private accounts, & access to all the apps to do as they see fit? I want them to have the ability to explore & make their own experience without overlapping into anyone else's. I want them to have their own space within the confines of the drives, if that makes sense.

Respect my friend! Well done

So helpful, you’re the only one who has actually explained how to do this. Thank you!!

Love this longform style review that includes USE of the camera. Dude, thank you!!

Very cool camera, love the small form factor. Price is nice too 👍 Don't have a use-case for it yet, but who knows. And yeah, I've had some wedding ceremonies that have gone close to an hour shot at 4k 60. I usually shoot everything at 4k 60 so I can slow stuff down in the highlight real in post. But yeah to your point, I use the FX3 and FX30 for those shots.

First 😎

Hi Paul is the link still available to purchase the mic handle?

PRO TIP: you can add a very, very small (less than a drop to the 10ml fluid tank) of essential oil to your fog/smoke to make it more pleasing. I like Jasmine or Cinnamon sent myself. A lot of people use vanilla which becomes nauseating.

You need to work on your language and the words you choose since the use of specific terms is the key to working with others and using specific terminology to get the effect(s) you want. So smoke, haze and fog are all different effects with specific terms. There is no effect using particulate called “Ice.” Do not use the terms FOG and SMOKE interchangeably as they are not the same and using them as such is a complete lack of effect and substance knowledge. Smoke rises and diffuses quickly while fog falls and spreads acting much more like water. The look is quite different too and confusing the terms is like saying right when you mean left. Being able to talk credibly and accurately about the effect you want see enhances your ability to be taken seriously. Smoke/fog juice is basically glycol and glycerin and distilled water as such it is a positively charged ion and is attracted to anything negatively charged like glass and metal like audio and video connectors. So when you use smoke/fog juice you need to wrap anything you actually care about in cling film like Sara wrap™ and use a UV or clear filter on your lens. The glycerin/glycol film will build up and needs to be cleaned with denatured alcohol or a good glass cleaner.

It's absolutely insane to me y'all shoot real estate below 16-18mm that looks absolutely ridiculous. Anything below 20mm is distorting reality. I basically never go below 22mm unless it's a bathroom or miniscule room.

I think you use the maximum input and the audio cracked. You have a selector of 3 differents audio input levels, you should use the lower. The same happened with the hollyland m2, you don't think the audio is creacked but it is if you use the louder.

One of these brands need to come out with one where the receiver is also a boom mic

That Pocket 3 is nice. The compactness of the camera for travel is pretty alluring, but that iPhone 15 Pro video is beautiful when you had it next to the Pocket 3, not sure If it was the filter or the video itself, but the pocket 3 video seemed flat. Did you shoot it in D-Log? The in and out shots between the iPhone, Pocket 3, and the A7S3 were awesome too 👍 Made it easy to see the video quality differences.

Thanks for the review Paul, could I ask regarding the Center Column can the pole part be removed or shortened? I do allot of low to the ground shots for nightscape photography and that pole length would get in the way.
