I loved this mic so much. It is an awesome alternative that has amazing sound quality at a low cost. I use this in my youtube videos as of recently and I will never go back to anything else. This mic will now live on my canon eos r. I would love to review the S-mic 2 as I do need another mic for the studio. Videos at zaidsexperience. Thanks for the great product Deity!

I was looking for a good on-camera microphone for my Panasonic GH5 and caught a whole bunch of YouTube reviews of this mic. Everyone says it's awesome, and its closest competitor is the Rode VideoMic Pro Plus, which is $100 more. It has an internal battery which you charge with a USB-C cable (included) and the battery lasts for over 50 hours. +20 dB of stepless gain via a dial on the back end of the mic allows you to get exactly the levels you need, and there's a high-pass/low-cut button with 75 and 150 Hz options. With the Rycote Duo-Lyre shock-mount and included 3.5mm little connector cable you have an awesome on-camera mic, and the foam windscreen with "Deity" printed on the side lets everyone know you're not just another Rode groupie. If you're curious about this mic, I encourage you to check out the Deity Microphones website for all the juicy details, and one more piece of advice: shell out for the Deity V-Mic D3 Pro Location Kit, which gives you the mic, as well as the Rycote Duo-Lyre shock-mount on a pistol grip, and the D-XLR phantom power to 3-volts 3.5mm adapter, which lets you convert the 3.5mm cable into an XLR (and converting phantom power to plug-in power), and the pistol grip can be used handheld or screwed onto the end of a boom pole, making this an amazingly versatile and affordable microphone for filmmaking and location sound recording.

I bought this microphone from my local photography store. And have been shopping on Amazon for a dead cat. This microphone is ideal for the BMPCC4K because the gain knob works perfectly with the VU meters displayed on the back of the camera. I did have to swap out the TRRS cable that comes with the microphone with a stardard TRS cable I had laying around from RODE but thats not so bad. Overall I love the audio quality. Now I can shoot awesome 4K Raw footage and have super flat natural audio that is ready have EQ dropped on top.

Apart from not waking up from extended periods of inactivity, the V-Mic D3pro outperforms my Rode VideoMic Pro+. Its better looking, smaller, lighter, audio quality and features are on par and its more affordable. Definitely my new daily driver on top of my GH5 blogging rig from now on. Awesome product.
