Deity V-Mic D4 Mini Video Microphone 20mph Wind Rating,Runs of 1-5V from Cameras,Phones,and Audio Recorders

I've been using Deity for a while now with my Blackmagic Pocket Cinema so when I started using the Sony A7iv, I wanted something similar. I don't have a full rig, though, so I didn't want to use a huge mic. This fits perfectly and works great. No complaints.

Great mic for video indoor and outdoor. Easy to mount and connect with professional results. Unit comes with cables and accessories needed to start using right out of the box.

Works pretty good

Excellent little mic with Surprisingly High-Quality Audio. I have been using it attached to the Media Mod of my GoPro Hero 11, and the improvement in sound quality is noteworthy to say the least. I'm not sure how Deity puts so many quality features into such a tiny microphone, especially considering the low price. The addition of a secondary input jack is pure genius. It also includes two very nice cords (an unexpected surprise).The only thing keeping me from giving this item a five-star review is the dead cat/windscreen. It is an effective windscreen, but due to its size and close proximity to the camera's lens (on a GoPro), it interferes with the video and/or photo. This is a problem, however, that is easily rectified. One quick-fix would be to mount the mic on the side of the camera instead of the top. I chose to create an extension to lift the mic just a bit higher (shown in photos 5-6). It is hard to expect more for the price, but I would have been willing to pay a little more for an included extension. As I said though, it is an easy fix.Overall, the Deity V-Mic D4 Mini is the best mini-mic on the market for under 100.00. I could not recommend it higher.

This is the first DSLR mic that I own for my camera, and I can tell the difference right away. Well, it's not only for DSLR cameras, but you can use it with your smartphone as well, by using the TRRS cable that comes in the box(which is around $14.00 if you buy separately.) That's a saving from the start. Basically, you can do your Instagram/Facebook live sessions or Zoom sessions or just record videos with your family with this mic for better audio results.The mic is a super-cardioid pattern that captures mainly what is in front of it rather than the ambience around so the closer you get the better it sounds. It's very light that it can be attached to the matte box of my camera if needed.Another feature that I like is that you can use it as a shotgun mic with a boom pole. The only thing is you have to make sure there is not too much headroom when filming so you can get as closer as you can to the subject and capture the best sound possible and the last feature that it sold me was the fact that you can connect another microphone to it, so basically you can have two sources of sound and separate them in post.Overall the sound of this microphone is great for such a low price. It's very warm and just crispy enough to where it doesn't accentuate the sh or sss. It's definitely a good choice to have it handy not just for bloggers, YouTubers or filmmakers but regular people that would like to have a good sound out their phones or camera.

Came nicely packaged. This little mic does a great job and I saved a lot of money from buying a four hundred dollar one. You do have to play with your settings on your camera for the volume then it wrongs great. Would recommend.

I've only used the cheap cordless microphones before, so upgrading to this affordable mic has been great. I only use it for indoor, stationary recording, and I've been very happy with it.

I use this microphone every week for a live stream as part of a portable video cart. It sounds great.
