Audio-Technica AT8024 Stereo/Mono Camera Mount Condenser Microphone

The Audio-Technica AT8024 stereo/mono camera mount condenser microphone can deliver much improved audio when compared with your camera's native internal microphone. It features a selectable line-cardioid mono, an internally matrixed mid-side stereo mode, and has the flexibility to either focus on a single sound source or to widen the field for more realistic capture. It attaches to your camera body or shoe-equipped camcorder via an integral camera shoe mount. A 39" coiled cable with a 1/8" mini-jack, AA battery, windshield, and a fuzzy windscreen are included.
