Budget Shotgun Microphone Comparison (Deity V-Mic D4, Comica VM20, Godox VDS-M1, BOYA BY-BM6040/60)

In this video I review and compare 5 budget shotgun microphone, including battery powered mics geared toward on-camera use, short and long production microphones, and shotgun mics with multiple pickup patterns.

I provide audio samples from a traditional boom arm setup, as well as in a closer, podcast or voice over style setup, so you can easily hear and compare the tone and character for each shotgun microphone.

I also share the unique features and accessories that each microphone provides, like low cut filters, USB-C support, and more.

The shotgun microphones included in this video are the Deity V-Mic D4, Comica VM20, BOYA BY-BM6040 and BY-BM6060, and the Godox VDS-M1.
