About this item
- Upgraded from Deity S-mic 2, the Deity S-Mic 2 is a professional shotgun mic features a shorter, lighter body with a slightly wider pickup pattern for multi-talent scenes. This makes it the S-Mic 2S perfect for things like reality TV crews, indoor sit down interviews, and indy filmmaking
- The Deity S-Mic 2S features a super cardioid pickup pattern which minimizes surrounding ambient sounds but still offers low off-axis coloration, lets you capture natural-sounding speech and dialog without any distractions
- Designed to hold up to the brutality of run-and-gun-style shoots, the Deity S-Mic 2's body is machined from 100% solid brass and features a epoxy sealed gold-coated PCB board and a moisture-resistant capsule
- The S-Mic 2S is as light as other industry standard mics used on film sets. Coming in at a mere 3 ounces, you might forget you have a microphone on the end of your boom pole
- All Deity S-Mic 2S come with a waterproof, shockproof hard case to keep your microphone safe during storage or travel. Also included with ever purchase is a mic clip and a foam windscreen

Deity S-Mic 2s Microphone
Pergear
Product Description
Deity's S-Mic 2S shotgun microphone is designed for recordists and boom operators who need the performance of Deity's S-Mic 2 in a smaller and lighter package for all-day shoots. Weighing in at only 3 oz, the S-Mic 2S is perfect for extended overhead booming (like on a documentary) or in situations with less room to boom (like low ceilings or overhead obstructions.)
The S-Mic 2S maintains the excellent off-axis coloration of its larger cousin, as well as the same all-brass construction that rejects RF Interference with the microphone. Its super-cardioid polar pattern is very forgiving, allowing talent to go slightly off-mic without sounding like they're off-mic. The off-axis coloration rejects frequencies from outside the pickup pattern, making the audio you record sound crisp, clear, and legible without worrying about what's going on around the mic. The S-Mic 2S also has the same low self-noise as the S-Mic 2, so you can hear what the microphone is pointed at, not the microphone itself.
The S-Mic 2S is a great microphone for beginning boom ops and recordists. It's lightweight, sounds great, and won't get in the way of your craft. And if you're an experienced recordist, the S-Mic 2S is a fantastic microphone to add to your arsenal for when you need a low-profile shotgun mic that rejects RF interference and off-axis frequencies.

My jobs are a mix of indoor and outdoor and I don't have the coin to buy specialized mics for each environment. I settled on a short shotgun and after buying this one and using it for an outdoor run-n-gun as well as indoor voicovers in a less-than-optimal studio, I am convinced I made the right decision.
This mic delivers a less effective noise rejection than a long shotgun, which is to be expected. Yet, when up close indoors, I'm not getting the phasing issues, either. A perfect balance that does the job for me. One mic to do it all makes my jobs simpler and have less gear to tote around. I'll keep it!

I received a noisy mic, so I sent it back and re-ordered a new one.
Haven't received a new one yet to test, hopefully, the first mic was just a bad batch.
Deity has a 1-year warranty on all products, however, I found it impossible to get in contact with their customer support team or sales. Never had any luck
Just so you understand that I'm not an unreasonable A/V or mic snob, I'll tell you that I compared the Deity S-Mics with both a Rode large-frame condenser mic and a simple stock X/Y mic capsule on the Zoom H6. In all of my testing, the Deity S-Mics were nosier.
I returned the S-Mic 2 just as I returned the S-Mic 2S. I don't think it's unreasonable for me to expect that the mics have a lower noise floor than these, and the cosmetic problems along with the bad mic clips soured me on the brand.
The clip included has a bushing reducer that is basically spot welded in and cannot be removed unless you have a drill press or something to drill it out. I'm going to have to wrap electrical tape all over this new mic in order to use it until I can now order a clip and wait for that to arrive. I've never had a clip shipped with the reducer so permanently fixed in place.
