This microphone is generally compatible with any DSLR or mirrorless camera that has a standard cold shoe mount and a 3.5mm microphone input jack. This includes popular models from Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm, and Panasonic. Check that your camera body has a 3.5mm mic input before ordering.

In most cases, this on-camera shotgun microphone is plug-and-play and draws power directly from the camera's 3.5mm jack — no batteries or phantom power required. Some variants may include a battery slot for boosted sensitivity. See variant options or contact us to confirm.

This is a directional (cardioid or supercardioid) shotgun microphone, meaning it primarily captures audio from the front while rejecting ambient noise from the sides and rear. This makes it well-suited for interviews, vlogging, and video production where you want to isolate your subject's voice from background noise.

Yes, this microphone typically includes both a foam windscreen and a furry dead cat windscreen to reduce wind noise during outdoor recording. See variant options or contact us to confirm exactly what is included in the package.

Generally, yes. The included windscreen helps reduce wind noise for outdoor use. However, this microphone is not weatherproof or waterproof, so we recommend avoiding use in heavy rain or extremely dusty environments to protect the capsule.

In most cases, yes — as long as your device has a standard 3.5mm TRRS or TRS microphone input. Compatibility with smartphones may require a TRRS adapter. For dedicated audio recorders (e.g., Zoom H-series), a TRS connection is typically sufficient. Contact us if you need help confirming compatibility with your specific device.
