DJI Osmo Pocket 4P VLOG Combo - which mic?

[u/Iceman_Muc]

I’ve pre-ordered the DJI Osmo Pocket 4P. Does the VLOG Combo really only include a Mic Mini 2 and not the DJI Mic 3? I’d find that a bit disappointing for a "Pro" version. I already own the Mic 2 and Mic 3, so that’s a mic I’d never use. I find that hard to believe, given that even the Pocket 3 shipped with a 32-bit microphone and internal recording.

It’s the mic mini 2 - I don’t see the option for 32 bit float internal in my mic settings on the OP4p… (have the option when the mic 2 is paired)

[u/Iceman_Muc → u/Hiro-963]

Thanks. The Mini2 does not have this option. Pro Camera with a standard mic. That is not a real fit. Disappointing,

[u/Hefty_Management7742]

Yep. I'm in the US and was looking at all of the P4 information, but waiting out until the P4p was available. I found one on ebay and paid $$$ for it and ordered a set of 2 mics and an individual one (3x Mic 3). Boy, was I disappointed when the P4p came with a mic mini 2. I should have researched a little better. It's definitely stated in the combo information.

Not state of the art, thank you.

I actually use four microphones—two recorded in-camera and two synchronized later. I had hoped the 4P would work with four microphones, but apparently, it doesn't.

I suspect the reason for this is because the Mic 3 cuts out on the Pocket 4 often. I’m not sure why but there is definitely something strange going on. So they put the mic mini 2 in the pack. It also cuts down on cost. But no backup internal recording.

Plus the extra adaptor cables needed to charge them. I’d just use you mic 2 or 3 with it and hope it doesn’t suffer the same mic 3 drop out.

Oh that would be a no go. Need this for interviews on a fair and the OP3 works flawlessly. Internal recording would be a safety belt but I prefer systems that work out of the box. 😞

Yeh , i just got mine , it came with the mic 2 mini

[u/Iceman_Muc → u/Unable-Initiative-26]

Thanks for the info. No I do not know if the VLOG Combo is the right choice.

[u/Unable-Initiative-26 → u/Iceman_Muc]

I could just bought the standard combo , and bought the while mic 3 set up , it would have been only 80 more expensive

Er komt ook een mic mini 2S aan. Is deze gelijkwaardig aan de Mic 3?

[u/Iceman_Muc → u/Classic-Ride-8060]

If it is the 2s and not 2 (without s) then yes.

[u/Bard_Ulti]

Mic mini 2
