Overview
The Polsen MVP-3 Micro Shotgun Microphone boasts a lightweight and compact yet rugged all-metal design that’s perfect for live and in-the-field recordings like mobile journalism, vlogging, and run & gun productions. The MVP-3 can be mounted on a camera’s shoe mount or onto a tripod, and it plugs into a DSLR, smartphone, or portable recorder’s 1/8-inch audio input jack to deliver professional-quality sound. The microphone’s cardioid polar pattern and shotgun design optimize the microphone to focus on the subject while rejecting off-axis sound and noise. To minimize handling noise and any vibrations that might affect your recording, the MVP-3 comes with its own shock mount. Anti-interference design assures an audio signal that’s free of buzz and hum from EM or RF interference.
Features
For DSLRs, Smartphones, or Portable Recorders
Relying on the built-in microphone of a DSLR, smartphone, or portable recorder can compromise your production with inadequate audio. Whichever you choose to shoot with, the MVP-3 will add professional-quality sound to your video and improve the quality of your production. The MVP-3 runs on the power from the recording device, so no additional cables or power sources are needed.
Instant Professional-Quality Sound
The MVP-3 is compatible with any DSLR, Smartphone, or portable recorder with a 1/8-inch audio input jack. Included cables are optimized for smartphones, and for DSLRs or portable recorders. All you have to do is plug in, set your levels, and start recording.
Live and In-the-Field Recording
The lightweight MVP-3 shotgun microphone features a compact form factor that won’t weigh down a DSLR, a smartphone, or handheld rig. It’s short enough that it will record great sound while it stays comfortably out of frame.
Cardioid Polar Pattern
The cardioid polar pattern ensures you record the sound you want and reject the sound you don’t. This is especially good news when you’re recording dialog or interviews in noisy environments because the MVP-3 focuses on the sound in front of it while it rejects off-axis sound.
Wide Frequency Range
The MVP-3 has an extremely wide frequency range for a compact microphone. Its 80 Hz to 16 kHz frequency range ensures you’ll hear accurate details and all the nuances of the sound you’re recording.
Shock Mount
The included shock mount minimizes unwanted noise when you’re shooting on the go, because it prevents vibrations from reaching the microphone. Whether the MVP-3 is mounted on a DSLR, boom pole, or smartphone gimbal, handling or machine noise won’t compromise your audio.
Anti-Interference Design
When you’re out there shooting, there’s no telling where interference is coming from. Power lines, streetlights, and even passing cars can wreak havoc on audio recordings due to RF and EM interference. The MVP-3’s anti-interference design protects the circuitry, so you won’t have to reshoot due to the hum, buzz, and static from interference.
Included Extras
Wind noise isn’t something you should have to live with when you’re shooting outdoors. The MVP-3 is designed for on the go recording, and includes a wind muff and foam windscreen so light to moderate breezes won’t interfere with capturing dialog or ambient sound.
