Super-cardioid Directional Shotgun Microphone
The short shotgun, super-cardioid design enhances directional response
and is ideal for clean recording of medium range sound sources. Ambient
off-axis background noise is effectively rejected and only a narrow angle
pick-up range directly in front is accepted.
Built-in Low-cut Filter
The built-in low-cut filter is effective at reducing rumble from wind noise,
vibration or air conditioning, allowing the target sound source to be clearly
recorded.
Slide Switch (Power OFF/NORM (Normal)/LOW CUT (Low-cut))
Set the switch according to the sound source. The supplied wind screen
greatly reduces wind noise and breath pops.
Shock-mount Microphone Holder
The shock mount holder included with the microphone helps to reduce
vibration noise when mounted on a camcorder, which is especially helpful
for hand-held shooting in the field.
Power Supplied by Camera or Alkaline AA Battery
Plug-in power is supplied from the microphone input jack of the compatible
Sony camcorder. When used with a camcorder that doesn’t support plug-in
powering, about 900 hours of power is provided by installing a single
alkaline AA battery.
