The MKE 600 gun microphone
The MKE 600 is the ideal video camera/camcorder microphone able to
handle even demanding filmic challenges. Due to its high directivity,
the MKE 600 picks up sounds coming from the direction in which the
camera is pointing and effectively attenuates noise coming from the
sides and rear. The switchable “Low Cut” filter additionally minimizes
wind noise.
Because some video cameras/camcorders do not provide phantom
power, the MKE 600 can also be battery powered. A battery on/off
switch prevents the battery from discharging prematurely; “Low
Batt” is displayed.
