Very nice find!

Cheers Monty.

Cheers Monty.

I'm gonna dive into this one for sure.

Ouch. That is one hefty pricetag.
I have to admit it looks great and ticks a lot of my wireless mic boxes (all of them).
But not for that money.
Rode go is half the price.

Do you use something like this with the band?

Its about the same price here as the Rode Wireless GO II which I think is the nearest model.

No, this one is not suitable for that.
But I sometimes need a lavalier mic for video projects with spoken word.

Nr 1 is good enough for me I think .

I see Aldrin in his latest video (see tutorials section) is testing the wireless mic too.   Another freebie I bet.

If you've got it and it works why replace it.

I think they are giving the mic more attention in the aftermath of the M3.

DAFlys Posted at 11-12 01:26

I don't.
I had the 'go' version (with mic).
But I sold it.
It was not clear enough.
(my videomic pro is much better, but it is not a lavalier)

Shouldn't that be "afterglow".

I found some of his long exposure shots to be quite inspiring.

DAFlys Posted at 11-12 01:28

Yes, I think so.

DAFlys Posted at 11-12 01:29

They most def are!

DAFlys Posted at 11-12 01:28

Sounds a bit more positive!

Montfrooij Posted at 11-12 01:30

That was my point.   

DAFlys Posted at 11-12 01:32
That was my point.

Although you could say the M3 release had a bit of a negative 'afterglow'.

There are quite a few polls popping up for missing features.

Exactly.
But the thing I really don't get (and I think DJI went one step too far) is the omission of a second wheel.

I mean on the remote.

Agreed,  very disappointed about that.  Something I also miss on the Mini 2

Montfrooij Posted at 11-12 01:48

I knew what you meant.

DAFlys Posted at 11-12 01:50

I used it all the time on my MP.

DAFlys Posted at 11-12 01:51
I knew what you meant.

It used to be something they did not include on the lower end models, but not having it on the M3 is one more reason not to buy.

DAFlys Posted at 11-12 01:51

I'm not sure if it is included on the smart controller (I guess it is), but that would mean they want to push more sales on those too.

Its not on the new smart pro smart controller either.   It controls the zoom on that.

Montfrooij Posted at 11-12 01:58

I often go to use it through muscle memory still on the mini 2.

It does appear they are dumbing down the models as time marches on.

DAFlys Posted at 11-12 02:04

Oh ok.
But at least there is a second dial then, so it can be changed in the firmware.

DAFlys Posted at 11-12 02:04

Same here.
I really wish it was there.
It changes the EV correction in auto exposure too (that is what I use a lot)

So it seems.
I don't really get that.

Just had breaking news that NL is set for another lockdown.   Must be getting bad again.

Montfrooij Posted at 11-12 02:09

I guess they want to make it seem like anyone could use one to maximise the sales.

True.
Not confirmed officially, but it looks like it.

I really don't get this.
A € 2000,- plus drone is aimed at 'prosumers' at least.
They need this dial.
But I guess being the only one in the market allows for these weird choices.
We will be buying since there is no good alternative.

Montfrooij Posted at 11-12 02:42

Our news said partial lockdown from this weekend so they don’t have long to announce it.

It’s curious that none of the influencers are mentioning it.
