The Audio-Technica ATV-SG1 Camera-Mount Shotgun Microphone is thoughtfully crafted for videographers and content creators who demand professional-caliber audio performance. With its shotgun design, this microphone easily mounts onto your preferred DSLR or SLR camera, delivering a host of advanced features, flexible customization options, and direct headphone monitoring. At its core is a 14mm large-diaphragm capsule, combined with a 100mm highly directional acoustic tube, which allows for precise capture of your intended sound source while effectively minimizing background noise. Sound quality is further enhanced by an integrated shockmount that mitigates handling and vibration noise, and proprietary A-T noise-immunity technology ensures strong resistance to hum and RF interference from devices like smartphones and other electronics.
Flexible Mounting and Orientation
A standout feature is the 12-sided shoe mounting plate, which enables rotation in 30° increments, granting exceptional flexibility for horizontal positioning and achieving precise orientation. This adaptability ensures you can always aim the microphone exactly where you need for optimal audio capture.
Onboard Controls and Redundancy
The microphone offers easy-to-access onboard controls, including a low-cut filter and gain adjustment, so you can shape your recording characteristics to match any scenario. For added security, the safety track option splits the audio signal, allowing for a redundant, clip-free backup recording—a valuable asset during unpredictable or high-stakes shoots.
Power and Accessories
Powering the ATV-SG1 is simple and dependable, thanks to USB-A to USB-C recharging, with a single charge providing up to 24 hours of continuous use. For outdoor shooting, a supplied windjammer helps to tame extreme wind noise, ensuring your recordings remain clear and intelligible even in challenging environments.
