This is a line plus gradient condenser design which operates on battery or phantom power and is designed for field audio acquisition in film/TV/video production, professional recording, wildlife recording and broadcast applications. It mounts conveniently on camera, and remains out of the frame even with compact digital cameras. This short shotgun offers outstanding long-distance audio pickup due to the narrow acceptance angle of line plus gradient design.
