Compact design with metal housing The Vmic Mini from Saramonic is a compact unidirectional condenser microphone, which is suitable for both DSLR cameras and smartphones. The compact design and metal housing make the Vmic Mini ideal for general sound recording on location. The robust shock absorber absorbs movements to keep the microphone sound as pure as possible. Micro-vents in the side and front of the Vmic Mini block dust and protect the delicate parts of the microphone capsule. This guarantees long-term reliable sound. You can use the Vmic Mini with a DSLR camera and smartphone. A separate 3.5 mm cable is supplied for both (TRS and TRRS). The Vmic Mini also offers a solution in the open air, thanks to an extra sturdy windscreen. A battery cannot be installed as the condenser microphone operates on phantom power.
