A Versatile X-Y Stereo Microphone
The VIDEO MIC X1 works with DSLR (Digital Single Lens Reflex) cameras, video cameras and most audio recorders and provides a high-quality vocal performance at a friendly price well within everyone’s budget. The mic can be powered by a DSLR’s plug-in power or a single LR44 battery (not included) with an auto power supply change circuit. The VIDEO MIC X1 comes with convenient power on/off switch for efficient power consumption. The same switch allows you to customize your recordings to your environment – flat response for regular recordings, or low frequency roll-off for enhanced clarity on bass-heavy recordings. With a high quality resonance tube design the VIDEO MIC X1 performs better than many other microphones and captures a more natural sound.

Extraordinary Value
The short length of the VIDEO MIC X1 makes it very practical to carry around. A high-performance camera shock-mount eliminates handling noise. The discreet windscreen comes handy to eliminate wind-noise during outdoor recordings. The VIDEO MIC X1 along with its accessories bundles a high-performance package into a zipper pouch.
