Product Overview

The Sennheiser MKE 400 is a professional on-camera shotgun microphone with a smartphone clamp and tabletop tripod stand. It delivers broadcast-quality directional audio capture for DSLR, mirrorless cameras, and smartphones. Available at Creation Networks for videographers, journalists, and content creators.

Product Description

The MKE 400 is Sennheiser's premium compact camera shotgun microphone, offering significantly tighter directional pickup than the MKE 200 for even better off-axis rejection in noisy environments. Its super-cardioid/lobar polar pattern focuses audio capture on whatever the camera is pointed at, greatly reducing room reflections, crowd noise, and ambient sound from the sides and rear. The included smartphone clamp enables use with smartphones, and the mini tabletop tripod stand provides a stable base for standalone use on a table or surface. The built-in 3-stage gain switch adjusts sensitivity for different recording environments. A headphone monitoring jack enables real-time audio monitoring directly from the microphone. Runs on 1x AA battery for extended recording sessions. Available at Creation Networks alongside the MKE 200 compact microphone.
