Meet the Tiny but Mighty DJI Mic 3 / by Jason McClellan

Overview

DJI continues to pump out quality, feature-rich products that not only meet but surpass the needs of today’s content creators. The company’s new DJI Mic 3 is no exception, flipping the script on what a compact wireless mic can do. The DJI Mic 3 slips into your kit without bulk—each transmitter weighs just 16 g—yet it packs a punch, delivering professional‑grade audio with features that make its predecessor and rivals look sluggish. Whether you’re recording your next podcast, conducting interviews, or shooting some viral gold, this mic has you covered.

Highlights

The DJI Mic 3 is more than a mic—it’s an audio system that overdelivers:

  • Adaptive Gain & Tone Control – Automatic and Dynamic modes smooth out spikes and whispers, while three voice presets (Regular, Rich, Bright) give your audio the polish it deserves.

  • Rock-Solid Recording – 32 GB onboard storage per transmitter, with dual-file capture (24-bit and 32-bit float) as a built-in safety net.

  • Timecode Support – Frame-perfect sync across multi-camera shoots saves you hours in post.

  • Multi-Channel Muscle – Connect up to four transmitters and eight receivers, with quad-channel output for panel discussions or complex setups.

  • Noise-Killing Tech – Dual-band transmission (2.4 GHz & 5 GHz), 400 m range, and two-level active noise cancellation keep chaos out of your audio.

  • Endurance You Can Trust – 8 hours on the receiver, 10 hours on the transmitter, and a charging case that adds 28 extra hours. Goodbye, battery anxiety.

  • Pocket-Sized Control – A touchscreen receiver and rotating magnetic clip mean smooth setup and quick adjustments, even mid-shoot.

Who’s it For?

  • Pro content creators & filmmakers who need broadcast-quality sound in a kit small enough to disappear into a pocket.

  • Podcasters and interviewers juggling multiple voices.

  • Journalists and field reporters fighting noisy environments.

  • Multi-camera producers who crave effortless timecode syncing.

  • Anyone tired of audio gear quitting before they do.
