The new CS-1 Short Shotgun Microphone employs the same
innovative technology as previous Sanken mics in a new, smaller,
ultra-compact housing. Specifically designed for the film and
television industries, the CS-1 is unobtrusive and easily avoids the
camera’s view. Sharp directivity delivers highly targeted sound while
eliminating background noise through off-axis rejection. Measuring
only 7 inches in length, the CS-1 is ideal for mounting on video and
film cameras, and with a weight of only 3.5 ounces, it is easy to
maneuver on boom poles and is also effective as a handheld shotgun
mic. Utilizing Sanken’s original square condenser capsule, the CS-1
has a flat frequency response well beyond 20kHz.
• Very sharp directivity in a compact 7” body
• Flat frequency on-axis response beyond 20kHz
• Optimum sensitivity: -30dB/Pa
• High SPL — more than 137dB SPL(1% THD), with no distortion,
even in close proximity to sound sources
• Narrow angle directivity in all frequency ranges — 23dB/20kHz,
25dB/10kHz, 26dB/1kHz, 20dB/200Hz
• Only 3.5 ounces — light weight makes it ideal for boom pole
operation
• Sanken original square-type DC-biased condenser capsule
