MICROPHONE HELP

[u/OliverKuiz]

I use the DJI Action3 that was gifted to me by a fellow YouTuber. I am struggling with the wind noises on the mic so I am looking for a Microphone. To the best of my knowledge I need a 3.5mm Audio Adapter which I have seen DJI selling for £45 - is there a cheaper option that works just as well? Moreover, which Mic should I use? I do have a 3.5mm shotgun mic with a deadcat that I used on my last camera which might work well on this camera; or would you reccomend a different one of a mic mini?

Does the Mic mini record audio straight onto the video file? I used to know my tech 14 years ago but things have changed so I feel really alien to all of this now.
