A: This amplifier is designed to work with the Shoeps MK series capsules, and will still require phantom power to run.

Q: 7. Hey sound guys and cam ops, what if i put this on my camera top? for run and gun documentary filming? Will there be difference?

A: The Schoeps MiniCMIT is a high-quality short shotgun microphone that can be camera-mounted and used for run-and-gun documentary filming with excellent results.

A: Our customers from Florida, Hawaii, the Caribbean,Thailand, and the Phillippines all report excellent resultsfor many years of working with this microphone in very high humidty environments. It is tough enough for ENG use and location film shoots.Many televison crews use this mic to shoot outdoor sporting events in all sorts of weather conditions. Note : Use it with a shock mount to avoid any handling noise.

Q: 9. Does anyone recommend this mic to pair along with the Mixpre 6?

A: The CMIT 5U is a fantastic mic and will pair well with your MixPre 6.

Q: 10. Would mounting this on camera work well when trying to get audio of a moving documentary subject?

A: Yes, the Schoeps CMC641 Set Colette Series Supercardioid Microphone Set could indeed serve as a high-quality on-camera microphone for capturing the audio of subjects in close range situations. The camera would need to be equipped with a 48V capable XLR input connection to accommodate the Schoeps.

[Foam] Scheops newest shotgun mic and the 3rd member of the CMIT family. Has the CMIT sound minus the filter options but makes up for being versatile with its small size. Great mic!

[0.15 lb] Right out of the box this mic is a powerhouse. Anytime I have someone listen while shooting interviews live they are amazed. If you're looking to purchase one mic and never have to upgrade this is the one.

[0.15 lb] This is the Rolls Royce of shotgun mics For outdoors and certain indoor application, the off axis coloration is very smooth which makes booming conversations between two or more talent very easy.

The filters included in the mic do wonders and while you want to let post handle EQ'ing, sometimes it is nice to use some treatment on set for client playback, sometimes your client do not have sound post and they are delighted with the sound they walk away from set, more than one client have been overly satisfied with the sound, claiming is some of the best they have heard.

This mic pairs really well with DPA 4060 and 6060 series.

[Foam] Best. Analog. Shotgun Mic. Ever. Hands down. If you can afford this mic.....get it. So crisp and clear!!! There are other great shotgun mics out there that have a really warm sound like the Neumann KMR 81 i MT which is also an amazing shotgun mic! I also use my Sennheiser MKH8060 for documentaries and reality tv and it is by far my favorite for those applications (although it is actually quite good in narrative too. Just picks up a lot of background noise) because it is so forgiving on off-axis sound and doesn't add any discoloration to any off-axis dialogue/sound! But like I said......Schoeps is still the best in my opinion. From my list from budget - very good - best....it would have to be: Rode/Audio Technica - Sennheiser/Neumann - Schoeps.
