I’m a new creator 40+ and just want to say THANK YOU! Used your links to get some starter gear and followed your tips. It’s working great and I expect to keep boosting my skills. 🎉
random i know, and i've only seen a couple of your vids, but gotta give props and say I love the creative ways you use your mic. Maybe its my years of working in TV and school where it was drilled into my head to "hide the mic," that it drives me nuts seeing all these creators who just hold their omnidirectional lav mics. At least you do something fun with yours. So, Kudos to you for keeping it fun
I fully agree with you and love the video; well done. The DJI Pocket 3 is currently $400 at Sam's Club until Dec 2nd, and the Hollyland Mics you showed off is about $97 on Amazon at the moment. I started with my iPhone Xr and then moved to an iPhone 12 Pro Max, which I still use heavily. I just started using my DJI Pocket 3 this year, a few months after I bought it, as the color was different in my videos, and it took me a bit to get used to. I still use the DJI mic set (I hate Rodes and am not impressed with the DJI Mic 2 set I purchased this year as it seems to pick up cell phone conversations). I am 55 and started my RUclips channel in 2020.
Thank you …very informative. 40 plus here and decided to upload my first video today. I’m using my phone for now however when I’m about to purchase equipment, your video gave me a benchmark to at least begin researching equipment . This was very comprehensive. My old behind don’t know what I’m even doing but this made me feel better equipped 🙏🏾
Thank you so much for sharing this! I've been wanting to start a channel for so long and its the tech setup that is holding me back, so your video was SO helpful!
Awesome Tips!!!!!! I'm starting a RUclips channel with my Fiancée soon and this information will really help us in create content quickly and efficiently!!! 🥰 Thank you soo much!!! 🤗
3 weeks in to my channel, and have so far been doing it with my iPhone, tripod and just got a microphone. But have been looking at cameras, and that one was on my list so I’m glad to see your review on it! 😊
This is such a helpful video! I've been looking at the DJI Osmo Pocket, but I figure I should post at least 5 videos on a regular basis before I invest in any other equipment. LOL Editing challenges are definitely the part that holds me up, but also worrying about the cringe factor and storing all the clips, and well... I can always come up with a list! But I'm so glad RUclips suggested your channel to me. Looking forward to looking through your content more!
I’m almost 40 and felt so insecure starting my channel-like I am way too old for this-but you are giving me confidence to keep going! Age is just a number and this millennial has something to say. 😊
Not sure if you are already aware but you can connect the DJI mic to your phone by bluetooth. There is also the the option if you had the adapter to connect that to the phone.
I'm a new 40 youtuber. Started launching our content September 3rd. I'm loving your content. I'm wondering how others could join your coaching program? Please let me know how we could sign up.
The DJI Osmo has been a game-changer for me! In the past two weeks, I’ve posted four times, which is a huge improvement for me and I'm happy how my vlogs have turned out. I used to feel awkward using my camera in public and found it hard to speak on camera in front of others. But with the DJI Osmo, it’s like all that hesitation is gone-I don’t even think twice anymore! It’s made vlogging so much easier and more enjoyable 😊
I recently purchased one and this is the exact reason. I also have trouble vlogging in public, even with my phone at times. I am very excited to get my DJI!
@ honestly you going to see a huge difference! It’s so much easier, you won’t think twice when you are vlogging outside or in cafes! Makes like so much easier 😃
You can put another mic in the external Dji mic input if you want and use the externel dji mic as a transmitter. You can also use the external Dji external mic with an Iphone when using the Black Magic video app.
I absolutely love the Spoon! The most original thing I've seen on RUclips in over a decade. I wish you the continued success going forward. I'm trying to figure out on what to do for a RUclips channel. Even after watching so many videos, I can't think what I'm knowledgeable about.
Our zone of genius is usually the thing that comes so easy to us we don’t even realize it’s what we can help others with. Choose the thing that others tell you “you make it look so easy!”
Super helpful! I created a new folder “Equipment” and this is the first video in it 😊 Thank you so much for sharing what you use! Someday I definitely want to get those lights so I can set up my “studio” in the basement. I have a really cool background down there so--Goals! ❤
You only need the wind cover on the mic, when it's really windy. Leave it off and you can wear the mic on your blouse, as it's meant to. No scratchy noise, without the cover 😉
Even though I am used to cameras I shot my first shorts with my iphone because I had pushed creating for years and wanted to create less mental barriers.
Update the firmware on you DJI mic. The sound is supposed to be much better after the update. My last video I made was recorded on the old firmware and it sounds muddy.
I got the creator combo as well and I love it, specially when I’m recording outside since is a small camera not everyone looking at you while talking to the camera lol I doesn’t call people attention like the big camera does, great video congratulations.
The Pocket 3 is amazing. I have been a big fan of the Pocket line and have used them from inside to out in the woods and mountains to backpacking and skiing. Nice Channel you have... Cheers from a fellow over 40 Content Creator ;-)
Me encanta el soporte de tu micrófono. La cuchara de palo al poder. Gracias por compartir esta info valiosa. Tengo 50, tengo equipos comprados hace 10 años y jamás los usé para ser RUclipsr por ser poco prácticos. Me llega en un gran momento tu video
Just found your channel. Great job, you're going to do great. I also have the DJI Pocket 3, love it. BTW - the DJI Mic 2 connects directly to my Samsung S23, I believe it will connect via bluetooth to your IPhone as well. Good luck with your channel. I did subscribe. Here's to Over 40 (50) RUclipsrs!
Jen!! just wanted you to know that this vid got served to me as a suggestion after MKBHD's iphone 16/16 pro review keep going - great work, great vibe, get it!
Love the setup you have especially the wooden spoon. ☺️ The Lark M2 that you show here is great...I have used for 2 weeks now.... perfect sound and Im from 🇸🇪 and over 60....😎
yay - I just ordered the Hollyland Lark mic and transmitter - I would love to try the DJI Osmo but it's a bit of a stretch for now. One day! I love your 'keep it simple' approach, thank you .
Was scrolling and I couldn't skip this video. Big fan of your mic stand! I have a question about the microphone on your blouse the round one, does that have some type of magnet on the other side to attach it to clothing?
I want to start my Lifestyle & Travel And Food RUclips channel. Thx for the inspiration. I clicked on your channel and within mere minutes I decided to subscribe to your Channel🎉
I’m so excited I watched you video this morning about how to record. I did it today! It helped me so much. Ty so much! I used tongs too for my microphone. My tongs are steel and red. I don’t care tho. BTW I’m a boomer. I’m 62 in November. 🥰👍
Hey, your more technology advanced than I am this week. I also have the DJI Pocket 3, but I am stuck between Registration and Logging In. Something about being too old to keep up with the Capcha. it looks good sitting on my desk. 🤔
I have the Ulanzi tripod. I hate it. It tends to slide down easily. Also I can recommend the FIFINE M9 wireless mic system. Just filmed a review that comes out Sunday. My first video in such a long time. I totally get how gear can be a hurdle to creating content, but the truth is the hurdle is ourselves. Gear, time, setup etc. is the excuse we use to avoid creating. In reality it's out internal dialog that frames our reality. Congrats on starting again. Cheers.
I'm using my iPhone 13 Pro Max right now. I have an old GoPro that I use for other types of videos but I use my iPhone A LOT! This is a great video! thank You! I am 58 years old and started focusing more on my channel this year. Hoping for the best.
This is the first time I’ve seen your video and I’m loving it. I would like to set up a RUclips channel. Could you please walk me through how t sign up. Can you explain more about filling out the affiliate form etc. thanks.
Great video! Question: do you capture directly on your PC when you are using the DJ Osmo? Or are you saving to its memory/card and then uploading to your PC. I mostly ask because it looks like it’s connected to the PC while you are filming.
It finally caught up to me… my whole feed is on RUclips 40+😂😂 I like this side of RUclips!! Great video by the way! I've been on the fence with Pocket Osmo but the more I hear about it the more I want to pick one up. You got my sub🫡💯
Ughhh I feel like the world wants me to get a DJI Pocket3 LOL I film all my content on my phone and so far so good but Tokyo is so fast paced, pulling out my phone to film sometimes slows me down. Maybe I need to gon' head and pick one up. Thanks for this video!

Holding the mic so nonchalantly drives me a little crazy too

Only amazing if you have never seen a pro camera before..

yeah great, crappy accessory on a crappy mic
Not sure if you are already aware but you can connect the DJI mic to your phone by bluetooth. There is also the the option if you had the adapter to connect that to the phone.
and then its 60 ms out of sync...BT has a delay that cant be removed...so no, dont do this.
I’m here for it!! I need all the help I can get!!
Aaah yes. The old KISS principle. Saves time, and possibly money. Also saves on brain cells.... and stress. Definitely saves on stress. 🙂
@@BaldAndCurious 💯saves on stress!
@@jennavarx true!
I love it! I've been using a fairy wand for my mic. Us over 40s girls are very professional 😂
yes, very professional using cheap chinese crap that will last 6 months..
@drianAlba whose to say it isn't a toy my kids have owned for years and secondly.. who mentioned professional.. Lighten up babe
Happy to see your channel growing! Keep it up! 😉

So great to see someone around my age making in the space as a new content creator. It gives me hope.

Great idea on the phone holder! I film everything on my iPhone too. Gotta start somewhere! ❤
