Definitely different use cases for everybody. I've owned the Rode Wireless Pro set for a year and have never found myself using the lapel mics. So weird for me that switching to the Mic 3's made more sense for me, as I hate the size of the Rode mics; they're hard to conceal when you don't want to attach wires to people. DJI seems to be shifting their target audience to mobile content creators, hobbyists, vloggers, influencers, etc. Rode is the one catering to the higher end professional users who care about functionality over form factor.
I have both the DJI 2 and 3 Both receivers have 3.5 out and headphone. I know you’re talking about 3.5 in, but the 3 is small enough that the big advertising magnet isn’t that big lol. I like both of them, haven’t used the rodes
Yeah, using it with my Mic 3. Works well.
Yes we tested it out. See the YT video above. Works fine.
I now have the definite answer: yes it can. We tested it with my son just now: [https://youtu.be/YhwNmoPq4XI?si=btR9VvSRB-3-\_V53](https://youtu.be/YhwNmoPq4XI?si=btR9VvSRB-3-_V53)
If anyone wondered, it can work without the receiver and without being connected to anything. With my son we recorded a short video as a proof: [https://youtu.be/YhwNmoPq4XI?si=btR9VvSRB-3-\_V53](https://youtu.be/YhwNmoPq4XI?si=btR9VvSRB-3-_V53)
i have in the studio 2 set of Rose Wireless pro and now a 4-channel set of DJI Mic 3. I also had 2 sets of DJI Mic 1, sold them because their capsules are so crap compared to rode’s, even the mic 3s produce a worse result audio-wise, on the rodes the actor can scream in the microphone and they don’t clip, the djis start distorting as soon as somebody laughs
DJI Mic 3 didn't work with my X5 through USB C either. I'm hoping they just need to add compatibility since it's a new device.
