(Pocket-lint) DJI, best known for its drones, has a new product: the microphone.
The microphone is a wireless clip that provides 24-bit, 48 kHz audio capture up to 820 feet. Described as DJI’s first dedicated audio recording system, the microphone can output via a 3.5mm jack, Lightning, and USB-C. It contains two transmitters, each with built-in microphones. Both support omnidirectional audio, which DJI says is ideal for multi-person interviews or “small studio” operations.
“With the DJI Mic, you can now easily record audio that matches the quality of your videos,” DJI said in its announcement. “It’s ideal for creators looking to gain an edge and take their content to the next level. It offers exceptional sound quality and two-channel recording at distances of up to 250 metres. Turn on, connect and record your audio lens on the go.”
If you’re interested, the microphone is now available in the US. But it costs $329 . That’s a lot, even though it’s not your usual microphone. It is a complete system with advanced features.

Simply turn on, plug in and record crystal clear audio on the go – perfect for any creator.

For example, the microphone offers sensitivity settings from -12dB to +12dB as well as variable gain, and has a furry insert to help reduce ambient turbulence such as wind. Other features include up to 14 hours of built-in memory and up to 15 hours of battery life. The system also includes a touch screen display to give you easy access to channel selection and I/O settings.
An integrated back clip and magnetic clip are also available, so you can easily attach the microphone to whatever you want.
