DJI Osmo Action 3, BOYA BY-K4 - USB-C Mic Adapter

Here I test out DJI Osmo Action 3 with BOYA BY-K4 USB-C Mic Adapter and with BOYA Lav-Mic. I also test out when used with RØDE Video Micro mic.
I test out different voice setup on Osmo Action 3 from -12db to +20db.

1:07 I love that bird's interruption 😊😍 Another nice one! Great job! 🎉👏

[@rjfotovideo]

Haha yeah that bird was pretty close to when I sat there by seashore.

[@invisi-bullexploration2374]

I am at wit's end with the mic isolating the breathing from my nose and pumping it to 15db.

[@rjfotovideo]

Ah that's great. I think they have done most great with OA4 compared to OA3 regarding the sound input. But still hope for 32 bit float in next unit.

[@AndreasDueck]

The noise floor with the Rode Videomic is still good even at +20dB, and the Boya By-K4 did well here too. Thanks for testing.

[@rjfotovideo]

Yes I agree.
Not sure if anyone would be using Røde mic for vlogging, but had to do a test with it also.
But I saw it peak at red sometimes without distorting the audio.

[@AndreasDueck]

@@rjfotovideo I use it sometimes when I'm near the river because it's a directional mic, but I have never tested it with BOYA BY-K4.

[@rjfotovideo]

@@AndreasDueck Yes then it is a good use for it, but should been a smaller one for use on action camera like OA3.

[@Worthfishing]

I can’t find this adapter the Boya by 4K can you give me a link? Thanks

[@mokisan]

Thanks for the video.
I reallt wanted a small wireless mic for it, thinking of getting the hollyland lark c1 (€130) or comica vimo c (€80) i could even charge the action 3 while using these mics.

[@rjfotovideo]

Ah that's nice

[@malan2099]

comica vimo c is best u don’t need to buy extra usbc adapter is included

[@rjfotovideo]

@@malan2099 Thanks for the tip

[@eprohoda]

Roger,well video!I'll be back! :)

[@rjfotovideo]

Thank you :)

[@ciekaweurzadzenia]

You explained it very well, what microphone do you use on a daily basis? I mean professional microphone?

[@rjfotovideo]

Thank you.
I use that Røde Video Micro when making videos with my DSLR, it is a quality microphone for getting good sound.

[@blantoniusz]

is it possible to plug in other audio source (dj mixer/record player/musical instrument/any kind of audio aux) to Boya adapter instead of microphone?

[@rjfotovideo]

I will say it is possible as long as output of those doesn't go too much above line-out in volume. But don't quote me on that since I haven't tested it out yet. Maybe I should try it out?

[@zaeemsiddiq]

Are you using BOYA BY-LM4 PRO 3.5mm TRS Lavalier Lapel Microphone? Would be great if you can post a buying link of the products too. Thanks

[@rjfotovideo]

No I'm using a BOYA lav mic, something like BOYA BY-M2. But all TRS mics from BOYA will work great.

[@casualridingtv]

what kind of Boya lav mic you are using please? Thank you!

[@rjfotovideo]

I can't really remember since I got it with an adapter I bought by error. Will buy another one if/when I find out. But it have TRS plug and around 1 meter cord and without battery.

[@kushabrata]

Does it support osmo action 1 action camera ??

[@rjfotovideo]

No it doesn't

[@nickanton2742]

+20 is what it souds liek for me at -12

[@rjfotovideo]

OA4 doesn't have the best input for sound, so many have complained. To get best sound then DJI Mic or something is needed.

[@NiraAfrodit-ew8yt]

clip on TRS or TRRS ?

[@rjfotovideo]

TRS

[@graphguy]

Won’t work on Go Pro xxxx

[@rjfotovideo]

Yeah gopro is best to use media mod
