The Brass body is no joke. I could probably drive a nail with this thing and then record the sound of a butterfly's wings. When I'm outdoors this is my go to mic. As with any mic, do not skimp on the wind cover when working outdoors.

The new S-Mic 2 has remarkably ultra low off-axis coloration. You have nothing to worry about if an audio source moves slightly in and out of axis of the S-Mic 2. Having to boom between multiple actors? Even a novice boom operator can pick up rich full sounds on a film set with this shotgun microphone.
The construction of the mic body is computer machined from solid brass inside & out. No plastic is used anywhere in the construction to hold it together or mount the PCB unlike other microphones that sell for similar prices. The S-Mic 2 uses a high-end capsule, computer designed circuitry and features a gold coated PCB (printed circuit board). The PCB is also sprayed and coated with a clear epoxy which allows the microphone to perform without issues even in the most humid environments. This coating also gives the microphone a water resistance level that allows it to work in the rain without being damaged. The body of the microphone has been sprayed with a black speckle paint to give it an ultra durable finish, so it looks professional in front of clients for years of ownership and makes it less reflective on set.
The S-Mic 2 features a super cardioid polar pattern, offering -18dB of off axis reject.
The S-Mic 2 has an ultra low noise floor at 12dB (A-weighted), 24dB (CCIR 268-3). Combined with its anti-RF interference build, the S-Mic 2 is able to be boosted with gain with a lot less background noise than some microphones on the market.
