DJI Osmo Action 4 and Lark M2 Wireless Microphone: How this combination is making my life easier.

I recently purchased the DJI Osmo Action 4 Camera and the Hollyland Lark M2 to see if this combination would make filming my cycling and hiking videos on KZbin more fun and effective. This video details how I use it, what I like and what to watch out for. #djiosmoaction4 #hollyland #larkm2 #cyclingvideos

Nice combo 👌

Nice review of this combination. Living in the tropics I was having over-heating issues with my GoPro. Bought a DJI Action 4 and in 6 months it has never had heating issues. Just picked up the Lark M2 combo and I'm real impressed with the sound quality. Haven't figured out how to connect it to my macbook for voice over yet, but I can always just record the voice over as video on my phone and detach the audio in edit.

It really is a nice combo and I am glad it works for you as well. Forgot to mention that my daughter used it with her iPhone for her vlog too

Hello Steve! I watched your video. Congratulations on successfully transmitting high-quality audio from the Lark M2 to the DJI Osmo Action 4 camera. I also have a Lark M2 mic and recently bought an Action 4 camera. I couldn’t directly connect the receiver with the C-type phone connection to my Action 4 camera. How did you manage this? I could only connect the camera receiver using a C-type to C-type cable. I can't directly connect the receiver we use for the phone. It doesn’t fit properly into the camera's slot. Did you use a cable or something else in between to make it work? Thank you for your help.

Hi there. I use the USB-c package and if you don't use the protective case that came with the camera it will fit although I have now lost two of them when manipulating during filming so if you get it to work be careful but when it does looks and sounds great even when cycling on windy conditions. Here is the link to the one I bought Hollyland Lark M2 Wireless... www.amazon.ca/dp/B0CP7P4RRQ?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

@@Pedals_and_Pathways Hi, Thank you for the information you shared. It was very helpful to know that the protective case is important when using the USB-C package. It's really unfortunate that you lost it twice during filming. I already own the Hollyland Lark M2. I was also worried about the USB-C receiver not being secure and stable on the camera. I'm a motorcycle rider, and I thought the wind pressure at high speeds might cause it to fall off, which is exactly what happened to you. This was the issue I was concerned about. How did you solve this problem?

First time I removed it to set camera on a bench for a shot and left it there 😩. The second time was just yesterday so I need to be more careful and I may look at Jerry rigging something. A band or tape. I know the DJI system is more secure but the Lark works well and I can't stomach the price of the DJI. I looked into an aftermarket case with a boot for the transmitter but the DJI has no audio plug in so they are really forcing you into buying their own mic unlike Insta 360.
