Xlr Shotgun Mic

[100 dB] I bought this to use with my DSLR (Nikon D500), and have used it with a shotgun mic, Shure SM58 (XLR), and a lav mic. I recorded video of myself playing piano using the shotgun and SM58 and got great results. It's a nice improvement to a basic portable system that doesn't make it less portable.

[Polyurethane] This cable is perfect to go from my camera-mounted shotgun mic to the camera's XLR input. It stays out of the way better than any cable I've ever used on a camera and is very lightweight.

[Gold] I use this xlr cable for the on-camera shotgun mic for a Sony EX3. It works wonderful and is the perfect length. Originally I tried a 3 foot cable, but it was too long and wound around getting in the way. This one is great, and the quality and craftsmanship of the cable is great too.

[1x DB-25 Female] So far, I've used this XLR gender changer only once (to interconnect a shotgun mic to a phantom power adapter). The connections are strong, and the audio was perfectly clean. Great purchase. ...

[0.13 lb] The in-camera mic on my ag-hmc40 is ok, but the Rode stereo unit is much, much better. A shotgun mic would be better to pull speech out of the background noise, but they are not stereo, and my budget is for one good mic. The pin plug is fine for my uses. If I ever switch over to using XLR, I can always use an adapter to update it. The sound quality is high, and it floats on rubber o-ring bands. It comes with the furball, dead-cat wind cover which works excellently. At $., its the best on camera mic for general use. If I want better long range speech quality, I think I will invest in a wireless lavalier setup to compliment this mic with an XLR setup. I need to purchase the case made for this model so it won't bang around in my video backpack when not in use. Stay away from buying cheap microphones. At this pricepoint, I consider this the minimum quality I would ever think of buying. After all you wouldn't put a cheap attachment lens over your your expensive prime zoom lens, and spoil the quality. The Rode SVM is an excellent general mic for all purpose use. A shotgun mic is for news type use, a lavalier is for someone you know, and a stereo mic is just a great upgrade from the cheesy in camera mics.

[0.1" (2.8 mm)] So glad I got this after I kept putting it off, with thoughts of another cable with my same drawbacks. Yes, my Canon XA50 camcorder with audio XLR inputs in handle is perfect now! My previous 40cm XLR high quality cable was as good as it got, the connection out of my shotgun mic extended near the top handle and the cable had to twist around to do a right angle into the handle input. It was clunky and got in the way with certain movements. It wasn’t terrible, yet after using this new coiled lightweight cable with low profile connections it basically as if I just have a shotgun mic and no cable at all. Allowing me a huge amount of confidence to move my camera without anything getting in the way. No perceivable sound quality issues with the thinner cable. If you have any camcorder/camera with XLR inputs built in I cannot recommend these high enough. I’m not a cablephile I am a pragmatist when it comes to function, I’ll pay extra for that cable that works.

[3.26 lb] Perfect length for my shotgun mic to reach my XLR inputs on my camera without having a bunch of cable to worry about getting tangled up in.

[End Address] the best budget shotgun mic.

[0.28 lb] great for any shotgun mic

[4] can use with shotgun mic or XRL studio mic
