Ordered today. You're video was a huge help in deciding. Thanks for the content.

[@ScottDumas]

Awesome! Hope you love it :) And thanks very much for watching!

[@johnkevin7992]

Very nice little mic! Sounds decent indoors.

[@WillardET]

just got this and have no clue how to mount the attachment to my camera is the black circle at the bottom twist?

[@A.DJC.PRODUCTION]

What was your camera levels set to when filming this video?

[@tvnathreviews]

Unbelievable price for such a great mic.

[@ScottDumas]

They definitely packed in all they could :)

[@omarlistills]

Can’t wait for mine arrive. Never thought I’d be excited for a mic 😂

[@AndresArosemena]

Hi Scott, do you know when will that mi be be available at Amazon?

[@ScottDumas]

Hi! I just added an amazon link to the choice page linked in the video description that should take you to your country's Amazon page. Not sure if/when it will be in stock everywhere but that should help out.

[@AndresArosemena]

@@ScottDumas thanks a lot man! for some reason I could not find that model in Amazon, just the older ones. Just added one to my cart with your link

[@dorianshaffer85]

I've been trying to use it with my phone but there's no sound coming out of it and so it doesn't pick up the mic from the deity but instead from the phone's mic??

[@KidPersepolis]

You may be using the TRS cord instead of the TRRS cord. They should be both supplied with the microphone, hope this fixes it.

[@forfilmssakeUK]

Hey Scott, I wonder if I can plug say, a DJI Mic's receiver into the aux input of the D4 Mini? I noted you did such configuration with your external lav, but just to confirm on my end here. Thanks. p.s I'm so not knowledgable into all these audio configurations having just started researching yesterday, so please bear with me.

[@Sal4Ro]

Looks like a great option for run and gun audio, well done - thanks for sharing!

[@jon112media]

I didn’t even know this mic exists. Thank you!

[@darrenromero5959]

Which is much clean when in comes to voice? Thanks 😊

[@dreamwevr]

How do know which one use with phone do I need to use apple lightning dongle

[@ScottDumas]

Hi! Yes, the phone cable is a 3.5mm jack so you'd need to use the lightning adapter. As far as I know there's no Deity made lighting cable yet.

This is an interesting option for anyone who uses a SteadXP device, as typically one must split the audio. I'm not a fan of the sound quality of this mic the off axis rejection wasn't very good and it, in my opinion, has a very hollow sound. One of the things I love about the video micro is how clean and clear it is for the price. While not the best mic out there it is definitely acceptable as a backup audio track in many situations.
