Sennheiser MKH 416-P48U Super Cardioid Shotgun Microphone

The Sennheiser MKH 416-P48U is a shotgun microphone designed for film, television, radio, and other broadcasting. An industry standard for recording speech, dialogue, foley, and ambient sounds, the MKH 416’s linear condenser capsule is extremely neutral and accurate. An extremely directional polar pattern helps to pick up sources from above at a good distance away from the microphone, ensuring you capture every word and noise you want while rejecting the ones you want to avoid, reducing the risk of reshoots.
Lightweight and subtle, it’s incredibly easy and comfortable to suspend the MKH 416-P48U out of shot while maintaining the correct distance to capture what you need to be heard. Designed to resist humidity and with an included windshield, this microphone is as comfortable on a controlled set as it is with location recording.
