Hi, there.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a suitable lapel mic (also called Lavalier mic , I believe) for my setup?  Everything I have seen connects via the Lightning connector to my Iphone 7 - and I am not very happy with this extra weight on one side of my phone putting the setup out of balance and out of sync.  What I reall need is a mic tht connects to the Osmo 3 via the USB on the side.  Is this possible/?  Will the USB socket run a mic input?  Anyone out there with some experience of this issue?

Hi! You might be better off posting your question in the 'products' section of this forum.  That is way more active.

Hello there dean. Thank you for reaching out and for these information you have given. The external microphone cannot be connected to the DJI Osmo Mobile 3 directly. Therefore this function depends on the compatibility of your mobile device and the microphone that you will be using. In addition, I am hoping that you will get the best recommendation from our valued DJI Member who owns the DJI Osmo Mobile 3 and who uses the wired lapel microphone on the said gimbal and on how do they set it up. Thank you.
