The latter has everything in the standard D3 Pro kit plus Deity’s D-XLR adapter and the Rycote Duo-Lyre pistol grip boom pole shock mount. The D3, the standard D3 Pro kit, and the D3 Pro location kit. With that incredible price in mind, let’s see what the two Deity mics have to offer for the commercial videographer, YouTube Creator or Vlogger. The excellent sound quality and value for money price puts the Deity mics some of the best on camera mics you can buy. The Deity V-Mic D3 Pro is a hundred dollars less than the Rode videomic Pro Plus. When comparing the Deity V-Mic D3 Pro vs Rode Videomic Pro Plus there’s one inescapable truth, the D3 Pro is significantly cheaper. So, if all three microphones sound similar, why have I chosen the Deity mics over the well-established Rode video microphones? In contrast, the D3 Pro had a broadly flat frequency response, which I prefer.

In fact, to my ear, the D3 Pro sounded a tiny bit better, with the Rode emphasizing low-frequencies on in-door recordings. In further tests, the Deity D3 Pro sounded remarkably like the Rode Videomic Pro Plus. But the D3 Pro has a slightly longer interference tube, so it may be a little better at rejecting ambient noise from the sides than the standard D3 microphone. That’s not so surprising since both use the same 14mm mic capsule. When tested, side by side, the V-Mic D3, and D3 Pro sounded remarkably similar. The Deity D3 and D3 Pro microphones don’t require external phantom power The D3 uses a single AAA battery, whereas the D3 Pro has a built-in rechargeable lithium battery. Since they are condenser microphones, they need electrical power to work. They come with an adjustable Rycote shock mount that ensures the microphone can be mounted on your DSLR/DSLM without bumping into your forehead when using the electronic viewfinder (EVF). They are intended for DSLRs/DSLMs, camcorders, smartphones, tablets, handy recorders, and laptops A handy feature to have if it were ever to become damaged or you need to use a TRS connector instead of the supplied TRRS cable.īoth are low noise super-cardioid directional shotgun microphones. The smart TRRS coiled cable is a separate element, so it can easily be swapped over or replaces. One end is not permanently fixed into the microphone’s tube. Meanwhile, many other on-camera mics have the microphone tube stuck into a bulbous housing that sits on top of your camera.Ī further improvement on many rival’s camera microphones is the mic cable.

The Deity V-Mics also look like professional pencil shotgun mics, with everything within or in line with the microphone tube. Their mic tubes are made from aluminum alloy, unlike many of their rivals who opt for plastic in their mic’s construction. The Deity D3 and D3 Pro not only sound great but they’re also some of the more rugged on-camera mics around.
