DJI's Mic Mini 2S Is The First In Its Mini Lineup That Can Record Your Audio Internally
The DJI Mic Mini 2S introduces internal 32-bit float recording to the company's compact microphone lineup, providing a crucial backup for video professionals. The device maintains the lightweight design of its predecessor while adding significant storage capacity for long-form recording.
Why it matters
Reliable audio capture is a major pain point for solo videographers; this hardware update addresses a specific professional requirement for data redundancy.
The feature provides a backup and can save your bacon if any of your audio is clipped.
Steve Dent for Engadget DJI's Mic Mini lineup has been popular with creators, but one missing feature has been keeping professionals away. The Mic Mini 2S solves that problem with addition of 32-bit float internal recording, giving video shooters a high-quality and reliable backup for their camera or smartphone recordings.
I've had the Mic Mini 2S for a couple of days, and so far I'm impressed. Along with the Mic Mini 2, it's the lightest and most discreet DJI wireless mic, while providing very good (but not phenomenal) sound quality. The internal 32-bit float setting is a godsend, particularly for independent videographers who need a backup and may not have a sound person available to set audio levels perfectly.
