Description

The ultra-compact VP83 LensHopper is an all-in-one solution for capturing detailed, high-definition audio with full low-end response for professional results every time. For use with DSLR cameras and HD camcorders, the VP83 features a rugged build and true-to-life audio quality, expertly combining form and function. Its easily accessible controls enable quick adjustments for different recording environments.

Features:

  • High sensitivity and low self-noise with wide frequency range for natural audio reproduction
  • Highly directional supercardioid / lobar polar pattern that rejects unwanted off-axis audio while clearly capturing the intended sound source
  • Superior RF immunity that avoids unwanted audio artifacts from cellular and RF devices
  • Easily accessible controls at the back of the microphone:
  • Three-position gain (-10 dB pad, 0, +20 dB boost) to compensate for different recording environments
  • Low-cut filter to eliminate background noise and room ambience
  • Integrated Rycote Lyre shock mounting system that provides robust isolation from vibration and mechanical noise (exclusively developed with Rycote for the VP83)
  • Durable, all-metal construction that meets legendary Shure quality standards in an ultra-lightweight design
  • Compare to the Rode Videomic, Rode Videomic HD and Rode Videomic Pro.

Specifications:

  • Type: Electret condenser
  • Frequency Response: 50-20,000 Hz
  • Polar Pattern: Supercardioid / lobar

Item Includes:

  • 1 AA alkaline battery for 130 hours of battery life
