I really need this!!! I have never used Comica before, but with this one I'll get from you it will be the very first. The biggest struggle I have currently is that I use the old system [Saramonic SM-WM4C] which is big and bulky and not quite professional...especially when interviewing high end clients and government officials. I'd be very glad and grateful if I could be introduced by this Comica system for the first time. I am very much impressed by the distance in which the receiver still records and the ingenuity of capturing the sound on an internal mini sd card. So, thank you in advance :)
The sound quality at that distance was amazing, no disturbance. This product is well designed, I remember Comica, I think they have updated it since the previous videos you've made on it. Definitely , Comica is pro. Not participating in contest as I don't record anything at the moment, but good luck to everyone. I just wanted to leave a message of appreciation , thank you for the video, most beautiful miss.
Ahoy, this is Rob from the Netherlands ;) First of all, thanks a lot for sharing your experiences, tips and tricks. Your way of presenting is just perfect. It's natural and easy to follow, I love it! I've never used an external microphone, so no Comica either. An external mic is still on my wish list for filming nature scenery as well as family events, so keeping fingers crossed ;)
I switched to the Comica VM20 based on your reviews. I was using at MOVO mini shotgun for my TH-cam videos and recently switched to the Comics VM20. I recorded two main videos and found out the new VM20 had huge amount of background hiss. I've been dealing with hiss for a while and normally would edit it out. Prior to my last two videos, I tested the MOVO and Comica VM20 with about 20 short segments all with different settings to dial in the sound. I thought I had it figured out... nope. The VM20 was so bad that I had to extract the audio from my Sony A7R2 video and heavily adjust in Audacity and then reattach in my video software, such a pain in the..... I actually figured out the problem and it was a faulty cable, so the VM20 was not the issue. I think using the Comica BoomX-d pro would be a huge improvement for me and my videos. Thanks for the awesome videos as they do help many of us.
Hello Zdenka! Thank you for all your videos I’m Johanna we worked together in the past! Thank you for your channel I’m in the process of starting my brand new flower farming channel. I’m working on purchasing the equipment I need! I have never used this equipment but I will love to! Thank you!
Wow. The distance it will go with perfect sound quality is stunning. I'm currently only using Iphones for filming, using either the built -in phone mic, or a cheap wired microphone with clip, where hiding the wire from the phone to your body is always an issue. Cordless like this one is the way to go I think. I film only indoors right now because I need to stay close to the camera using a short wired mic. Looks like Comica has really come up with a solid performer here. And the black color is definitely cool ! It always surprises me how many TH-cam videos I watch, where the person's voice almost disappears as they walk away from their phone. The video is almost useless to watch due to not being able to hear anything being described. Wireless is a must have I believe. Great video, as always. Cheers Frank-
Thank you very much for sharing…. Careful with wired mic. I used it first 5 months on TH-cam, forgot I am wired, made few steps and camera was flying down….
I love the versatility of this microphone! And the output is awesome! I always love your video, you are not using any music but your voice and the quality of the audio makes me want to watch your videos from start to finish.
I love my Comica gear too. Every time I pull out my BoomX-D to attach to a client at our events (dance competitions/conventions), they're surprised by how tiny the whole package is. I've also exceeded the advertised range during shoots, and as long as the Tx & Rx are both stationary and line of sight, it holds up.
The range test was very impressive. I was surprised that the signal held up when you were not facing the camera while walking away. Did not hear any drops in voice!
I am a newbie in filmmaking! Currently, I am looking for the best microphone and audio recorder that are budget-friendly devices. I always love the tips and reviews you made on your channel. You are a great help! I haven't heard Comica brand for microphones until now. I was absolutely stunned by its clarity when you recorded your voice at a very long distance from the camera. I would love to have this microphone and recorder!
Its always a struggle on me when finding the best microphone, most especially when filming outside for my travel vlogs. The wind noise is the biggest challenge to me. And knowing we have this kind of microphone, I wouldn’t mind buying one! I just hope that this is available in our country! Love to have one! I love the video!
New to your channel. I have never used one of these Comica mics but plan to now that you have presented this review. I work in financial services and am starting to learn how to create and promote my own videos..I keep missing your promotions 😢 but plan to purchase this and bought the Smooth 5 because of your videos. Keep up the great posts.
Hi Zdenka, Chris here from the Philippines. I've stumbled upon your video when searching for a good wireless microphone I can use for doing elearning tutorial videos and vlogging outdoor with my son. I have not owned any comica products or wireless mic before and your review has been a great guide. All the best to your channel!
I am just getting in to recording videos and I am still learning what would be the best gear to use. Thank You for all of your reviews of so many products. Having watched your videos I have upgraded my phone to a iPhone 12pro and have bought the DJI OM4. I have also been working on the best way to move during recording.
Thanks Zdenka for yet another interesting review. I just started vlogging and I never used Comica before. I’m currently using SmartMike+ for my travel vloggs. The difficulty that I have is the quality of sound and the range of coverage. I live here in Ireland and there are so much interesting places that I want to feature in my channel. How I loved to try that Comica microphone.
I create nature videos, utilizing my original music compositions, and I struggle with clean ambient audio, especially wind noise. Love your work…I learn something new every time you post a new one. Thank you for your efforts…they are appreciated.
I use a Comica wired mic to record skits, interviews, and funny green screen videos. I have yet to find audio that meets my expectations except the Comica I currently use. Its awesome, but a wireless pair would be much better. I upload videos to TH-cam weekly, I would love to have the Comica Boomx-d Pro! Also, thanks for all your past videos and teaching me so much. I have followed your advice and very much appricate the time and quality instructions you put into each video.
Hello Zdenka, first of all thank you for your videos, who are always very interesting and entertaining. I'm generally a streamer and doing a podcast/vidcast for a certain boardgame community. I stream games during the World Championship, record videos and talk with guests about new releases or events going on in the community. Mostly actually in an english spoken podcast, but my current project on my german channel is the latest card set, that has been released. Showing the cards and talking with a guest about using the effects in certain gameplay situations would be the content. As the community is spread out over our country I actually don't have the possibility to record with guests in person. I am preparing for that actually and will need some equipment for those interviews or vidcast formats. I already saw some reviews on older Comica products and think they would fit perfectly to provide good sound for those kind of videos as you don't need to sit right in front of a on table microphone for example. You could even take the person on a walk and record the content outside. If I'd record a solo video again, I'd just use my smartphone on a tripod with a mounted small Rode mic. The disadvantage is obviously the "in room" sound. The sound of a mic attached to your cloths seems to be better in general. For the podcast I did buy a USB-micro with pop filter, to have a better sound. Still struggling with settings for the mic, like the compressor for example. I generally understand the techniques behind the sound production, but I still need more experience and more time to get it to a good level. My TH-cam channel is connected to another account. I just don't want to do any unasked advertisment. Thanks again for your content and good luck to all participants!
Hi from the lovely rainy uk I switched from Comica to Saromonic after my twin mic system from Comica failed for no apparent reason this kinda put me off the brand great video as ever though 😉✊🏻
Your videos are teaching me so much and I’m so happy I’ve found your channel. I don’t actually have an external mic, so no, I have never used a cómica mic. I’m new to vlogging and currently just use a go-pro. Thank you for explaining how these work. They look to be high quality. ❤️
I love this video my biggest concern when filming is the wind noise on a gusty day. Especially when I'm on location or when I want to film the crisp sound of a waterfall. I will be getting this in the new year. I know it will work out well with the new Canon M-50. Thanks so much for the video review.
I just purchased a Deity v-mic d4 duo, I have not used comica products before but they are on my list for the wireless mics that I've been researching. I've been working on a couple of videos to start my TH-cam channel and this would be a lovely addition.
Zdenka thank you again for a detailed and informative review. I shoot mostly interviews/testimonials sometimes indoors, sometimes outdoors. I have to admit I am still insecure when it comes to audio. I’ve had the nightmare of realizing I failed to capture audio before due to user error and even though sometime has past theres still anxiety when it comes to my audio setup. That’s why I was so impressed by the safety-net features you highlighted. I’ve never used Comica before but happy to have discovered a new brand with piece of mind features.
Woo-hoo, glad I made it to the end lol. No I've never used a comica mic. Im using a cheap regular lav right now but would love a wireless solution. Was acrid looking into comica last week and I already started saving up lol. Funny enough this video popped up today! In regards to struggle it would be great if you showed us how you edit your audio for such clear sound.
Thank you very much for sharing…. You might be shocked when I tell you that I don’t edit the sound from these microphones at all… 0… this is the raw sound from those
@@ZdenkaDarula oh wow. That's awesome thank you. Now I'm that much more interested! May I ask where do you keep your gain so that you don't get your levels to high?
That looks like a great product Zdenka.......I use a Rode wired microphone which is big for my Action camera when connected to my gimbal so would love to win this one.........stay safe........thanks for sharing
Great review. Loved the audio from the mics especially during the distance test. For the contest: I have not used any COMICA mics before; I record VTCs using PADCASTER mics/IPADs @ work, and my biggest struggle is getting people to understand that you have to use an external mic with an IPAD or video camera in order to record better sound.
I have not used comica mics. I only have a taskar shotgun mic I use for everything. It does ok but could be better. like most, wind noise is the biggest problem. these look like a very nice set up. I really like the fact you can plug a lapel mic into them to be hidden even more..
Hey! I have been paying attention to the Comica brand, and their BOOMX-D PRO version is also great! I usually make short videos to record life. What I am worried about is that I don’t have enough budget to experience a better mic. I have learned a lot on your channel!😍
I make vlog type of videos. I use a different brand, and never used comica before. I have an issue with the mic just stopping on me in the middle of recording. So reading the title of this vid (never lose your sound again) kinda clicked with me :)
I create classic car videos and I have trouble with interviews with owners. I now use a h1 mic and match in post. I find it makes owners nervous. I need something to record me and owner and car sounds together. Love the video and this looks great and just what I need.
A: Biggest struggle with sound is placing Lavs, lol. I’ve tried a bunch of different techniques for various situations but still often have trouble not getting scratchy sounds. Prefer the boom. 😀
I currently have the BoomX-D D2 thanks to your recommendation. I currently record poetry videos and podcast videos. I also intend on doing some voiceover videos. As far as biggest struggle, having an assistant to assist with filming and sound check.
I was looking for a microphone like this to record interviews and blogs with my wife on her TH-cam channel. We currently use the Comica CVM-D02, and it's phenomenal, but we've been looking for a wireless one like this for a long time. Our main problem with ours is the impossibility of being too far away from the camera. I will definitely buy this! Thanks Zdenka, excellent recommendation! Greetings from Portugal!
Thank you for this video... I was looking for some affordable but better sound quality than Boya Wireless lapel mic so I can express my ideas clearly and this must be the one I'm looking for my Goal Achievements videos.
Answering the question: Never used comica but I am looking for an external lavalier mic for my iPhone 13 pro to record videos. It’s such a coincidence that you published this video as I’m researching Ng for mics. Thanks for the cideo
HOME MOVIES!!! I have two great kids and I love shooting vids of them. Hope to eventually have a channel that helps other parents up their Home Movie game! Your videos are awesome, been a subscriber for quite a while, thanks for sharing all your experience!
As a beginner, I've not invested in real name brand audio, so I'm relying on the generic equipment found online. My challenge has been relying on the internal microphone of my camera, but with decent wireless mic like this, I could record separately, and then join the audio and video in post.
I am using the Comica Boom XD D2 and the Comica Boom XU Love them both. My biggest struggle when it comes to sound is the noise reduction while recording.
Hey I love the video, thank you for sharing! I think a microphone like this was definitely needed. I record a lot of interviews and I’ve been limited in my range of mobility. I haven’t been able to find a microphone with that much security and wind proofing until now.
Dang! I missed this giveaway but now I'm subscribed! Nice channel! I really like how your channel looks. Have you ever published a behind the scenes showing what is the light setup you use? Do you color grade your videos?
I don’t use a comica now. I use a rhode video mic. Not great for capturing my talking.. and someone else in front. I think the comica d2 would be the perfect solution for me. I also find all audio lacking when using iPhone adapter to lightning port. Maybe Santa will bring me a Sony ZV-e10 for Xmas.. one can dream!
I only have a small MOVO VXR10GY microphone I attach to my camera. I haven't recorded much lately, but I will soon be starting to record informational videos for TH-cam. Clearly, the microphone I currently use means that I struggle with extraneous noise and getting clear audio at a distance. The Comica looks like a wonderful solution.
I am still searching and really appreciate your highly informative video on Comica. My struggle is with connected wires and wind noise. I am sure Comica appreciates your publicity. My videos focus on travel. Roger
Hello. I have never used a Comica product before. I mostly film family and grandchildren but also want to do some DIY tutorials for fun. When it comes to the quality of recorded sound the biggest struggle is with sound level consistency and wind interference.
I use MouKey Mirophone or neewer's camera microphone. They work kinda OK in windless situations but if its very noisy, they dont do the job well as much as my cardoid microphones on my computer. i"ved tried wireless microphones before, but somehow the ones ived tried, either the battery did die. really fast or i would lose connection randomly. Ive bought some of the phone gimbals youve tested and rcommanded such as the Zhiyun smooth 3. best gimball ever for me and use it often . Thanks
Nice video I mainly film local music events. I have access to the Comica CVM-AX1 mixer which I use two ComicanCVM-VM20 microphone. I like having separate gain controls on my devices since I had issues when sound was blown out (booming) and monitoring was not possible. That was with a different system from Comica I also prefer using the Comica Taxshot microphone system for it portability, audo monitoring with headphones and has a visual audio monitor. Plus has it's own gain controls. This is what I like about and I have got some good sound out of this system I have liked the video and subscribed to your channel for about a year
It is wonderful microphone. I will put it in my list. Maybe one day I am able to buy it. Anyway, I have never used microphone. I just used microphone in my cellphone.
Great review thanks. Love that it can be used for wireless transmission and standalone recording. Been using a Rode mini for a while and been looking for something wireless but without the cost of the Rode wireless units.
I have not experience with Comica (only wire old microphone). I have plane for may new project youtube channel FairBlade. Maybe one day I will be able to try it in person - Comica BOOMX-D PRO. Nice Zdenka. Dakujem za pekné video :)
I mostly do indoor reaction videos on films etc, but did a recent one straight out of the cinema and outside using an external mic fixed to my phone, and even with a windshield the sound was interrupted and all over the place. I’ve been practicing being in front of mic to try and build confidence for a larger travel project that I plan for next year in New York, so would really benefit from a mic system such as this for that higher quality production.
Me and my boyfriend record videos with instructions for board games ☺️ the biggest challenge with the mics is to have the voiceovers and the sound while presenting the game matching (because we have two different setups and it is not practical) 🥺
honestly I never hear about this brand.... But very interesting device, actually when is good builded as tech with so many good features and very good looking .... I had a rode before but it was stolen, since that I was looking for a new wireless microphone. I actually was training making videos, and one day my video came out without voice LOL .... I am working in real estate photography. Now with a new project came out I need a good mic to make video tours with voice.
Great video and this looks like something I could use, I’ve never used these before, I have been using my iPhone for sound when recording video, I’m a musician and like to record video of me singing and playing the guitar acoustically, the iPhone seems to over compress the sound and there is no balance, think it’s time to look at something like this, thank you 🎥🎸
I have an old Sony Handycam where I have used an external microphone, the Azden ECZ-990 Video Camera Zoom Microphone, so none of Comica’s microphones. But now I’m starting to mainly make videos on my OnePlus Nord phone. I wonder if I can connect any external microphone to my phone because my phone only has a connection for a USB-C cable. An additional microphone with a wind Muff would be good because I make a lot of videos outdoors in nature.
No, I do not use Comica but use another make. The biggest struggle is making sure that you pressed the button long enough to start the recording. There have been several fails as the wireless units I use do not have a digital display but just a very tiny light.
This Mic is good and great review, thanx for the video however what about someone who uses a gimble along with a smartphone, is there any compatable wireless mic for such use which doesn't hampers the usage of the gimble along with the phone?
I have never used a Comica microphone. I'm recording the unpacking and hardware tests, I'm going to try blogging. The biggest problem is the echo in a closed room and the wind outside.
Thank you for an interesting review. Is the wind muff securely attached? I currently have a Rode Wireless Go and the wind muff constantly falls off ( it doesn’t have the clips the Go 2 has) I really like the look of these mics.
I use rode micro microphones and normally for my camping outdoor videos the struggle is making sure all the technology and settings are lined up and working before I hit the record button. Wish me luck on your giveaway. 😊
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!! You are the winner of COMICA microphone... please get in touch with me via Instagram DM OR you can find my email form on my website at zdenkadarula.com
Do you may know if I can use the transmitter as a shot gun alternative for run and gun shooting? My camera does not have a mic input, so I was wondering if this could be a solution. Instead of the instamic I would rather buy the comica for maybe future projects.
I've not used a Comica microphone before. I record live bands in restaurants and small clubs. This is a challenging task. I've made considerable headway with the video, and have had success with the audio by recording directly from the mixer. However this is not always possible. The Comica system will enable me to record two singers while minimizing the sound from the audience and other instruments.
Nice review, as always! This seems like a very nice product with nice sound, good range and a savoice overseas. I don't have a wireless system or any Comica products. Currently I record video outdoors in nature videos and voiceovers. Right now I record to a Zoom recorder that has a shotgun microphone attachment. Sometimes I struggle to get close enough to the microphone to capture the best quality. The Comica would solve that issue. Let's see if I get lucky and win the drawing!
I volunteer and shoot videos for several nonprofit organizations. I currently use a Samsung Go Mic Mobile (lavalier mic set up), but have had real trouble with intermittent audio drop regardless of where the microphone, transmitter, and receiver are placed. Really looking for a new mic I can rely on and afford.
Quick question. I have an m50 and ordered the canon ef-s 55-250 for a better price than usual. I couldn't resist. I wonder if you know a way to adapt the lens to the viltrox speed booster for obvious reasons. There is a hack part sold on eBay for about $25 that replaces the mount. It is made for that exact lens. I ordered one to see if it works for the lens but more as a general case test to know if I can use other ef-s lenses on my m50 with speed booster. The added f-stop is a huge bonus for less expensive lenses. I wonder why no one, like viltrox has made an adapter for ef-s to ef-m or even ef-s to ef. Someone would make a lot of $$ creating a device for that. Any ideas so we can get rich or at more Importantly, have fun. I like comica stuff. Good quality for the $$. I have a comica CVM-AX3 mixer and it is GREAT for using 2 microphones of any type
@@ZdenkaDarula I will let you know if the hack part works. Not everyone is interested in replacing a lens mount, but it's really easy, just a few screws. To get the speed booster extras on an innexpensive zoom I think is worth the risk. There is a video on TH-cam showing how to do it, so no big deal.
Brilliant video. I am currently saving up for microphones so can not really comment. This would be fantastic to win. My biggest struggle currently is finiances to get my TH-cam channel up and running. And that range distance. Wow. I have never heard of this brand but it is impressive. 🙂
Not used comica mics. I am using rode videomic pro +. Thinking what is the best wireless mic. I have 3 options: rode wireless go II, godox movelink m2 and comica.
Haven't used any Comica mic. I'm using my phone's mic, and it doesn't work well when I'm outdoors, and windy. It's too noisy. It's good in controlled environments tho.
Hello. I have an Oppo Reno 5 (android) cell phone and I'm looking to buy a gimbal and control it with Filmic pro. to be able to use the manual settings and take careful shots more pro. I downloaded the Filmic pro Evaluator app and it mentions that it supports gimbal dji osmo 1,2,3,4 and also supports Zhiyun Smooth 4 and Q3. The question of the century: with the cell phone I have and the shots I require, which gimbal do you recommend buying? Cheers :)
Thank you very much for sharing …. Honestly most of the gimbals offer similar things for Android… The best thing is to use FiLMiC Pro and use any gimbal to stabilize the video
@@ZdenkaDarula it's a pleasure, thanks for the information. I've been watching a lot of your videos, You know what you do and say. Love it! I'm going for the Osmo5 though; that's my fear, that I can't use the manual functions. If it could with osmo5?
I use just my Samsung galaxy S20 plus build in mic i am making exploring outdoor and traveling videos and vlogging on Mental health illness Awareness i would like to have a microphone that works or are compatible with my Samsung galaxy S20 plus as i am using it to make my videos so i want to upgrade my audio 😀
I never heard of Comica until today and I think I may have bought the wrong microphone with my Rode. It isn't that critical though with the casual videos I make about things that catch my attention.
I am a student of filmmaking. I love waching your videos. I really need a sound recording system like this Comica BoomX-D Pro. I just love it.
Thank you very much for sharing
Wow the distance and sounds incredible.
Yes it was super good… I use it all the time now since I published the video and it works well
I really need this!!!
I have never used Comica before, but with this one I'll get from you it will be the very first.
The biggest struggle I have currently is that I use the old system [Saramonic SM-WM4C] which is big and bulky and not quite professional...especially when interviewing high end clients and government officials.

Hello Zdenka, first of all thank you for your videos, who are always very interesting and entertaining.
I'm generally a streamer and doing a podcast/vidcast for a certain boardgame community. I stream games during the World Championship, record videos and talk with guests about new releases or events going on in the community. Mostly actually in an english spoken podcast, but my current project on my german channel is the latest card set, that has been released. Showing the cards and talking with a guest about using the effects in certain gameplay situations would be the content.
As the community is spread out over our country I actually don't have the possibility to record with guests in person. I am preparing for that actually and will need some equipment for those interviews or vidcast formats. I already saw some reviews on older Comica products and think they would fit perfectly to provide good sound for those kind of videos as you don't need to sit right in front of a on table microphone for example. You could even take the person on a walk and record the content outside.
If I'd record a solo video again, I'd just use my smartphone on a tripod with a mounted small Rode mic. The disadvantage is obviously the "in room" sound. The sound of a mic attached to your cloths seems to be better in general.
For the podcast I did buy a USB-micro with pop filter, to have a better sound. Still struggling with settings for the mic, like the compressor for example. I generally understand the techniques behind the sound production, but I still need more experience and more time to get it to a good level. My TH-cam channel is connected to another account. I just don't want to do any unasked advertisment. Thanks again for your content and good luck to all participants!
Thank you very much for sharing
Hi from the lovely rainy uk I switched from Comica to Saromonic after my twin mic system from Comica failed for no apparent reason this kinda put me off the brand great video as ever though 😉✊🏻
Thank you very much for sharing
Your videos are teaching me so much and I’m so happy I’ve found your channel. I don’t actually have an external mic, so no, I have never used a cómica mic. I’m new to vlogging and currently just use a go-pro. Thank you for explaining how these work. They look to be high quality. ❤️
Thank you very much for sharing
I love this video my biggest concern when filming is the wind noise on a gusty day. Especially when I'm on location or when I want to film the crisp sound of a waterfall. I will be getting this in the new year. I know it will work out well with the new Canon M-50. Thanks so much for the video review.
I just purchased a Deity v-mic d4 duo, I have not used comica products before but they are on my list for the wireless mics that I've been researching. I've been working on a couple of videos to start my TH-cam channel and this would be a lovely addition.
Thank you very much for sharing
I never used comica before but from what heard in the video the quality seams great. That is exactly what I am looking for when recording videos.
Thank you very much for sharing
Zdenka thank you again for a detailed and informative review. I shoot mostly interviews/testimonials sometimes indoors, sometimes outdoors. I have to admit I am still insecure when it comes to audio. I’ve had the nightmare of realizing I failed to capture audio before due to user error and even though sometime has past theres still anxiety when it comes to my audio setup. That’s why I was so impressed by the safety-net features you highlighted. I’ve never used Comica before but happy to have discovered a new brand with piece of mind features.
Thank you very much for sharing
Woo-hoo, glad I made it to the end lol. No I've never used a comica mic. Im using a cheap regular lav right now but would love a wireless solution. Was acrid looking into comica last week and I already started saving up lol. Funny enough this video popped up today!
In regards to struggle it would be great if you showed us how you edit your audio for such clear sound.
Thank you very much for sharing…. You might be shocked when I tell you that I don’t edit the sound from these microphones at all… 0… this is the raw sound from those
@@ZdenkaDarula oh wow. That's awesome thank you. Now I'm that much more interested! May I ask where do you keep your gain so that you don't get your levels to high?
Great presentation... But one thing... Can we used in a phone on a gimbal?
Thank you very much for your support. Yes I use it on the phone and gimble all the time
That looks like a great product Zdenka.......I use a Rode wired microphone which is big for my Action camera when connected to my gimbal so would love to win this one.........stay safe........thanks for sharing
Thank you very much for sharing
Great review. Loved the audio from the mics especially during the distance test. For the contest: I have not used any COMICA mics before; I record VTCs using PADCASTER mics/IPADs @ work, and my biggest struggle is getting people to understand that you have to use an external mic with an IPAD or video camera in order to record better sound.
Thank you very much for sharing
I have not used comica mics. I only have a taskar shotgun mic I use for everything. It does ok but could be better. like most, wind noise is the biggest problem. these look like a very nice set up. I really like the fact you can plug a lapel mic into them to be hidden even more..
Thank you very much for sharing
Hey! I have been paying attention to the Comica brand, and their BOOMX-D PRO version is also great! I usually make short videos to record life. What I am worried about is that I don’t have enough budget to experience a better mic. I have learned a lot on your channel!😍
Thank you very much for sharing
I make vlog type of videos. I use a different brand, and never used comica before. I have an issue with the mic just stopping on me in the middle of recording. So reading the title of this vid (never lose your sound again) kinda clicked with me :)
Thank you very much for sharing
I create classic car videos and I have trouble with interviews with owners. I now use a h1 mic and match in post. I find it makes owners nervous. I need something to record me and owner and car sounds together. Love the video and this looks great and just what I need.
Thank you very much for sharing
Great very useful review 🙏 that is very useful for my new vlog channel
Thank you very much for your support
A: Biggest struggle with sound is placing Lavs, lol. I’ve tried a bunch of different techniques for various situations but still often have trouble not getting scratchy sounds. Prefer the boom. 😀
Thank you very much for sharing
I currently have the BoomX-D D2 thanks to your recommendation. I currently record poetry videos and podcast videos. I also intend on doing some voiceover videos. As far as biggest struggle, having an assistant to assist with filming and sound check.
Thank you very much for sharing
I was looking for a microphone like this to record interviews and blogs with my wife on her TH-cam channel. We currently use the Comica CVM-D02, and it's phenomenal, but we've been looking for a wireless one like this for a long time. Our main problem with ours is the impossibility of being too far away from the camera. I will definitely buy this!
Thanks Zdenka, excellent recommendation! Greetings from Portugal!
Thank you very much for sharing and many greetings back to you
Good product Great review 👏
Thank you very much for your support
I don't use any external microphone system, but I would like to, so I find this review very helpful. Thank you 😊
Thank you very much for sharing
you awesome Darula. I will buy this one.
Thank you very much for your support
Thank you for this video... I was looking for some affordable but better sound quality than Boya Wireless lapel mic so I can express my ideas clearly and this must be the one I'm looking for my Goal Achievements videos.
Thank you very much for sharing
Answering the question: Never used comica but I am looking for an external lavalier mic for my iPhone 13 pro to record videos. It’s such a coincidence that you published this video as I’m researching Ng for mics. Thanks for the cideo
For iphone specifically, theres the boomx-d mi2, with built in apple lightning port
You are very welcome. Their latest microphones all come with cables compatible with iPhone phones
@@ZdenkaDarula thanks!
HOME MOVIES!!!
I have two great kids and I love shooting vids of them. Hope to eventually have a channel that helps other parents up their Home Movie game! Your videos are awesome, been a subscriber for quite a while, thanks for sharing all your experience!
Thank you very much for sharing
As a beginner, I've not invested in real name brand audio, so I'm relying on the generic equipment found online. My challenge has been relying on the internal microphone of my camera, but with decent wireless mic like this, I could record separately, and then join the audio and video in post.
Thank you very much for sharing
Thank you for your great video.
We will keep going and make more and better products.
You are very welcome
I am using the Comica Boom XD D2 and the Comica Boom XU Love them both. My biggest struggle when it comes to sound is the noise reduction while recording.
Thank you very much for sharing
Hey I love the video, thank you for sharing! I think a microphone like this was definitely needed. I record a lot of interviews and I’ve been limited in my range of mobility. I haven’t been able to find a microphone with that much security and wind proofing until now.
Thank you very much for sharing
Dang! I missed this giveaway but now I'm subscribed! Nice channel! I really like how your channel looks. Have you ever published a behind the scenes showing what is the light setup you use? Do you color grade your videos?
Yes it is all in video archive… just go through the videos
Very nice review, as always - Is it possible to connect 1 extra transmitter, so you have 3 transmitters in total?
Thank you for your question. Unfortunately I don’t know the answer. I would ask Comica directly… sorry
Thank you! Good luck to all who are trying to win!
I Would also use it outside for my travel blogs with a smartphone!
Thank you very much for sharing
can you use a USB-C to Apple lightening cable with the Comica into an iPhone ??
Yes you can
@@ZdenkaDarula thank you for your answer.. and does it record digitally, mono or stereo like the Rode go 2 ? thanks again.
I don’t use a comica now. I use a rhode video mic. Not great for capturing my talking.. and someone else in front. I think the comica d2 would be the perfect solution for me. I also find all audio lacking when using iPhone adapter to lightning port. Maybe Santa will bring me a Sony ZV-e10 for Xmas.. one can dream!
Thank you very much for sharing
I only have a small MOVO VXR10GY microphone I attach to my camera. I haven't recorded much lately, but I will soon be starting to record informational videos for TH-cam. Clearly, the microphone I currently use means that I struggle with extraneous noise and getting clear audio at a distance. The Comica looks like a wonderful solution.
Thank you very much for sharing
I am still searching and really appreciate your highly informative video on Comica. My struggle is with connected wires and wind noise. I am sure Comica appreciates your publicity. My videos focus on travel.
Roger
Thank you very much for sharing
Hello. I have never used a Comica product before. I mostly film family and grandchildren but also want to do some DIY tutorials for fun. When it comes to the quality of recorded sound the biggest struggle is with sound level consistency and wind interference.
Thank you very much for sharing
I need one Zdenka, look very worth
Thank you very much
I use MouKey Mirophone or neewer's camera microphone. They work kinda OK in windless situations but if its very noisy, they dont do the job well as much as my cardoid microphones on my computer. i"ved tried wireless microphones before, but somehow the ones ived tried, either the battery did die. really fast or i would lose connection randomly. Ive bought some of the phone gimbals youve tested and rcommanded such as the Zhiyun smooth 3. best gimball ever for me and use it often .
Thanks
Thank you very much for sharing
Nice video
I mainly film local music events. I have access to the Comica CVM-AX1 mixer which I use two ComicanCVM-VM20 microphone. I like having separate gain controls on my devices since I had issues when sound was blown out (booming) and monitoring was not possible. That was with a different system from Comica
I also prefer using the Comica Taxshot microphone system for it portability, audo monitoring with headphones and has a visual audio monitor. Plus has it's own gain controls. This is what I like about and I have got some good sound out of this system
I have liked the video and subscribed to your channel for about a year
Thank you very much for sharing
It is wonderful microphone. I will put it in my list. Maybe one day I am able to buy it. Anyway, I have never used microphone. I just used microphone in my cellphone.
Thank you very much for sharing
Nice review 👍
Thank you very much
Great review thanks. Love that it can be used for wireless transmission and standalone recording. Been using a Rode mini for a while and been looking for something wireless but without the cost of the Rode wireless units.
Thank you very much for sharing
is comica is good?
Comica is excellent I only use microphones from them
never used comica or any type of wireless mic , thanks for the review
Thank you very much for sharing
I have not experience with Comica (only wire old microphone). I have plane for may new project youtube channel FairBlade. Maybe one day I will be able to try it in person - Comica BOOMX-D PRO. Nice Zdenka. Dakujem za pekné video :)
Děkuji mockrát a přeji hezký den
I mostly do indoor reaction videos on films etc, but did a recent one straight out of the cinema and outside using an external mic fixed to my phone, and even with a windshield the sound was interrupted and all over the place. I’ve been practicing being in front of mic to try and build confidence for a larger travel project that I plan for next year in New York, so would really benefit from a mic system such as this for that higher quality production.
Thank you very much for sharing
Me and my boyfriend record videos with instructions for board games ☺️ the biggest challenge with the mics is to have the voiceovers and the sound while presenting the game matching (because we have two different setups and it is not practical) 🥺
Thank you very much for sharing
@@ZdenkaDarula you are welcome! We are always glad to learn from you :)
these would be perfect if the battery wasnt just 4/half hours
Yes agreed. The battery life could be longer
What would be the best Comica for shooting on the iPhone for landscapes, ocean,lake,forest
I don’t shoot that kind of video so this is hard for me to answer…
honestly I never hear about this brand.... But very interesting device, actually when is good builded as tech with so many good features and very good looking .... I had a rode before but it was stolen, since that I was looking for a new wireless microphone. I actually was training making videos, and one day my video came out without voice LOL .... I am working in real estate photography. Now with a new project came out I need a good mic to make video tours with voice.
Thank you very much for sharing…. Nothing is worse than no sound recorded right? Wishing you all the best
Great video and this looks like something I could use, I’ve never used these before, I have been using my iPhone for sound when recording video, I’m a musician and like to record video of me singing and playing the guitar acoustically, the iPhone seems to over compress the sound and there is no balance, think it’s time to look at something like this, thank you 🎥🎸
You are very welcome… if you are musician then you might want to do something like Comica V20
I have an old Sony Handycam where I have used an external microphone, the Azden ECZ-990 Video Camera Zoom Microphone, so none of Comica’s microphones. But now I’m starting to mainly make videos on my OnePlus Nord phone. I wonder if I can connect any external microphone to my phone because my phone only has a connection for a USB-C cable. An additional microphone with a wind Muff would be good because I make a lot of videos outdoors in nature.
Thank you very much for sharing
I have too. Not so good for me. Most of the time I have interference and hissing on one channel. Any idea what could be?
Hm… I am sorry to hear that. Unfortunately I am not sure what it could be
What are the differences between the model Boomx d d2 e d2 pro?
Thank you for your answer
This pro version has built in memory card
No, I do not use Comica but use another make. The biggest struggle is making sure that you pressed the button long enough to start the recording. There have been several fails as the wireless units I use do not have a digital display but just a very tiny light.
Thank you very much for sharing. I totally understand that kind of a problem
I use boya by-dm100 but it has some problems 😕 .
Thank you very much for sharing
This Mic is good and great review, thanx for the video however what about someone who uses a gimble along with a smartphone, is there any compatable wireless mic for such use which doesn't hampers the usage of the gimble along with the phone?
You can still use microphone and have a connected to your phone and a gimbal. I’ll be showing such a solution November 16
@@ZdenkaDarula ok 👍👍👍👍
Thanks for your sharing.
You are very welcome
I have never used a Comica microphone. I'm recording the unpacking and hardware tests, I'm going to try blogging. The biggest problem is the echo in a closed room and the wind outside.
Thank you very much for sharing
Thank you for an interesting review. Is the wind muff securely attached? I currently have a Rode Wireless Go and the wind muff constantly falls off ( it doesn’t have the clips the Go 2 has) I really like the look of these mics.
The wind muff holds very well. Thank you very much for your support
I use rode micro microphones and normally for my camping outdoor videos the struggle is making sure all the technology and settings are lined up and working before I hit the record button. Wish me luck on your giveaway. 😊
Thank you very much for sharing
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!! You are the winner of COMICA microphone... please get in touch with me via Instagram DM OR you can find my email form on my website at zdenkadarula.com
@@ZdenkaDarula Awesome email sent.
Do you may know if I can use the transmitter as a shot gun alternative for run and gun shooting? My camera does not have a mic input, so I was wondering if this could be a solution. Instead of the instamic I would rather buy the comica for maybe future projects.
I am not familiar with Insta mic so I cannot compare. I actually use it as extra recording and then I just synchronize the sound in the post
i dont know how to transfer it in computer
Via cable
I've not used a Comica microphone before. I record live bands in restaurants and small clubs. This is a challenging task. I've made considerable headway with the video, and have had success with the audio by recording directly from the mixer. However this is not always possible. The Comica system will enable me to record two singers while minimizing the sound from the audience and other instruments.
Thank you very much for sharing
Nice review, as always! This seems like a very nice product with nice sound, good range and a savoice overseas.
I don't have a wireless system or any Comica products. Currently I record video outdoors in nature videos and voiceovers. Right now I record to a Zoom recorder that has a shotgun microphone attachment. Sometimes I struggle to get close enough to the microphone to capture the best quality. The Comica would solve that issue.
Let's see if I get lucky and win the drawing!
Thank you very much for sharing
I volunteer and shoot videos for several nonprofit organizations. I currently use a Samsung Go Mic Mobile (lavalier mic set up), but have had real trouble with intermittent audio drop regardless of where the microphone, transmitter, and receiver are placed. Really looking for a new mic I can rely on and afford.

Quick question. I have an m50 and ordered the canon ef-s 55-250 for a better price than usual. I couldn't resist. I wonder if you know a way to adapt the lens to the viltrox speed booster for obvious reasons. There is a hack part sold on eBay for about $25 that replaces the mount. It is made for that exact lens. I ordered one to see if it works for the lens but more as a general case test to know if I can use other ef-s lenses on my m50 with speed booster. The added f-stop is a huge bonus for less expensive lenses. I wonder why no one, like viltrox has made an adapter for ef-s to ef-m or even ef-s to ef. Someone would make a lot of $$ creating a device for that. Any ideas so we can get rich or at more Importantly, have fun. I like comica stuff. Good quality for the $$. I have a comica CVM-AX3 mixer and it is GREAT for using 2 microphones of any type
Thank you very much for sharing …, when it comes to the lens I honestly don’t know… sorry
@@ZdenkaDarula I will let you know if the hack part works. Not everyone is interested in replacing a lens mount, but it's really easy, just a few screws. To get the speed booster extras on an innexpensive zoom I think is worth the risk. There is a video on TH-cam showing how to do it, so no big deal.
Brilliant video. I am currently saving up for microphones so can not really comment. This would be fantastic to win. My biggest struggle currently is finiances to get my TH-cam channel up and running. And that range distance. Wow. I have never heard of this brand but it is impressive. 🙂
Thank you very much for sharing
Not used comica mics. I am using rode videomic pro +. Thinking what is the best wireless mic. I have 3 options: rode wireless go II, godox movelink m2 and comica.
Thank you very much for sharing
I am just trying comica for the first time
I hope you like the microphone… enjoy
Haven't used any Comica mic.
I'm using my phone's mic, and it doesn't work well when I'm outdoors, and windy. It's too noisy. It's good in controlled environments tho.
Thank you very much for sharing
pleaz rode go 2 is beter or this comica ? ( quality sound )
I’m sorry I don’t have the other microphone so I don’t know
@@ZdenkaDarula no probleme think you
Have you used any Comica microphones before? No still deciding, but this Comica sounds good. What type of videos you make? Dog park walks on my X2

Hello. I have an Oppo Reno 5 (android) cell phone and I'm looking to buy a gimbal and control it with Filmic pro. to be able to use the manual settings and take careful shots more pro.
I downloaded the Filmic pro Evaluator app and it mentions that it supports gimbal dji osmo 1,2,3,4 and also supports Zhiyun Smooth 4 and Q3.
The question of the century: with the cell phone I have and the shots I require, which gimbal do you recommend buying? Cheers :)
Thank you very much for sharing …. Honestly most of the gimbals offer similar things for Android… The best thing is to use FiLMiC Pro and use any gimbal to stabilize the video
@@ZdenkaDarula it's a pleasure, thanks for the information. I've been watching a lot of your videos, You know what you do and say. Love it! I'm going for the Osmo5 though; that's my fear, that I can't use the manual functions. If it could with osmo5?
I use just my Samsung galaxy S20 plus build in mic i am making exploring outdoor and traveling videos and vlogging on Mental health illness Awareness i would like to have a microphone that works or are compatible with my Samsung galaxy S20 plus as i am using it to make my videos so i want to upgrade my audio 😀
Thank you very much for sharing
One of my struggles with finding a good microphone, is picking up the static noise from the background
Thank you very much for sharing
Prices are not bad.
Yes it is decent…
I never heard of Comica until today and I think I may have bought the wrong microphone with my Rode. It isn't that critical though with the casual videos I make about things that catch my attention.
