The world of content creation is here to stay. Whether you're a pro vlogger or just getting started with a podcast, you have endless possibilities about how you'll take off on a content creation journey. While the majority of creating content comes from brainpower and creativity, there are a few tools you'll want to help out, and tons of them are included in the best Black Friday deals.

From camera to mics to storage, content creation requires a few essential tech products that will both make your job easier as well as more streamlined. Thankfully, we have a handful of super reliable brands to fall on for all the goods needed.

Keep in mind DJI makes some of the most popular content-creator tech but the brand is having a hard time getting product into the U.S. right now. Because of that, you'll probably need to go with a third-party seller for almost anything DJI. We don't usually condone buying from third-party sellers, but DJI is an exception lately. We've only included DJI deals that come from reputable sellers that have a solid track record within the last year.

Best mic deal

Why we like it

If you're in the content-creator circle, you know the DJI Mic Mini has taken over. Almost every vlog, TikTok video, or YouTube stream features these tried and true mics. Mashable Lead Shopping Reporter Bethany Allard tested out the DJI Mic Mini and found it not only easy to use, but great in terms of performance, too. "If you need any degree of portability with your mic setup, the DJI Mic Mini offers a lot of versatility, and for a great value," Allard wrote. "That makes it a solid option for making vlogs and TikToks, and for anyone who feels less than confident with their tech skills."

Thanks to Amazon's Black Friday sale, the Mic Mini with two transmitters and one receiver is on sale for only $66, down from the normal price of $119. That's a major 45% discount and the lowest price we've ever seen at Amazon.

Best drone deal

Why we like it

It's quite possible DJI will face a drone ban in the U.S. within the next few weeks. If that's the case, Black Friday could be your last change to snag a DJI drone, for a while, at least. Because of that uncertainly, Amazon's deal on the DJI Mini 4K Camera Drone Combo at 21% off is a great option. With two batteries, you'll be in line for over an hour of flight time and the 10-kilometer video transmission isn't shabby either. Plus, it's small enough to fit in the palm of your hand.
