Questions & Answers

Simon W : How does it attach to a Canon DSLR?ANDREW R : Like any other microphone. Appropriate cable (not included), shoe-mount mounting clip (not included). Normally a shotgun mic like this would not be attached directly to a camera, it would be attached to a boom pole and be wielded by a boom operator.
M M : What type of cable/ jack?ANDREW R : Per the supplied specs: Output Connector - 3-pin XLR
Shopper : Why Did You Choose This?MARK B : price and need to do interviews with a boom pole from 6 ft away
