With a built-in microprocessor that automatically configures its TRRS connector to work with most 3.5mm mic input jacks, the Deity Microphones V-Mic D3 Pro Shotgun Microphone is compatible with a variety of DSLRs, camcorders, mobile devices, and portable audio recorders. Attachment to your camera, boom pole, or tripod is simple and efficient using the supplied Rycote adjustable shock mount and 3.5mm TRRS coiled cable.
A stepless knob on the mic’s bottom provides up to 20 dB of gain for easy optimization of levels. Activate the onboard low-cut filter at 75 Hz or 150 Hz to reduce rumble and bass buildup. The microphone is powered primarily by the internal 51-hour rechargeable battery; plug-in power (bias voltage) from your camera or mixer is only required to turn on/off the mic. The lightweight aluminum body is finished in low-reflection paint, ensuring that it won’t weigh down your camera or induce distracting glare.
You Should Know

Visit the Deity Microphones website to see a comprehensive list of compatible devices.
Stepless Gain Knob
The Deity Microphones V-Mic D3 Pro Shotgun Microphone features a step-less analog gain dial. Integrated bump guards help prevent the dial from being accidentally rotated. The gain (up to 20 dB) is added on a linear scale, so you can dial in the exact amount of boost you need for the shot.
Selectable Low-Cut Filtering
Attenuate low-frequency rumble with the Deity Microphones V-Mic D3 Pro Shotgun Microphone low-cut filter, selectable at 75 Hz or 150 Hz. Rather than using a sunken switch that requires a pointed object to flip, the V-Mic D3 Pro opts for a single top-mounted button.
Low Off-Axis Coloration
The Deity Microphones V-Mic D3 Pro Shotgun Microphone pickup pattern remains similar across essential frequencies, yielding low off-axis coloration. Novice and experienced videographers can capture consistent audio quality when dealing with sources that vary their positions.
Low-Noise Electronics
Thanks to the 14mm condenser capsule and low-noise, low-distortion electronics, the Deity Microphones V-Mic D3 Pro Shotgun Microphone provides clean audio with a high signal-to-noise ratio, which means less time spent in post-production processing your tracks with noise-reduction software.
Long Battery Life
The Deity Microphones V-Mic D3 Pro Shotgun Microphone uses a built-in 320mAh lithium battery, which powers the mic for up to 51 hours. Plug-in power is only used to wake the mic from its standby mode. The internal battery recharges via USB in approximately two hours.
Automatic power-saving conserves battery life by entering standby mode when your camera or device is turned off. The power switch and power LED indicate aid in power management; the LED will be red when power is low.
Convenient Accessories
The Rycote Lyre shock mount supports attachment to a camera shoe mount, boom pole, or tripod, and it minimizes the transfer of vibrations by decoupling the mic from your camera or stand. The included foam windscreen reduces noise from HVAC systems and light wind. For enhanced protection against wind noise in outdoor shoots, use a wind jammer such as the Rycote 12cm Classic-Softie windshield (available separately).
