Sennheiser ME-66 Shotgun Microphone Kit Phantom/AA Power Rental
Designed to provide the basic accessories for shock-mounting a shotgun microphone atop a camera, this B&H Kit features the Sennheiser ME 66 shotgun microphone head, the Sennheiser K6 phantom-/battery-powering module, a shoe/pole shockmount, a foam windscreen, AA batteries, and a short XLR to 3.5mm cable for easy hookup to a camera's mic input.
The kit addresses the needs of videographers who prefer a cost-effective, yet versatile shotgun microphone setup that stays out of the frame while delivering focused directionality, natural tonality, and low handling noise. With its XLR output and dual powering modes (AA battery or phantom power), the ME 66/K6 mic is well suited for use with mirrorless cameras and DSLRs as well as professional camcorders, portable audio recorders, multitrack field recorders, and compact mixer adapters.
