Audio-Technica ATR55
Multi-Pattern Condenser Microphone
The ATR55 is an inexpensive shotgun mic designed specifically for mounting to video cameras. The mic’s permanently-affixed audio cable terminates in a 3.5mm mini-plug.
A switch allows selection of “normal” (Cardioid) or “tele” (Supercardioid) operation; the two modes have different sensitivity levels.
Audio-Technica
The ATR55 offers intelligible reproduction for close-, medium-, and long-distance pickup. In its “Tele” range setting, this unidirectional condenser is engineered to pick up dialogue and sound effects at a distance, while bypassing ambient noise such as traffic, air-handling systems, room reverberation and mechanically coupled vibrations. Designed especially for use with video cameras.
