Listen up all Nikon videographers: the first external stereo microphone, the ME-1, has just been launched in South Africa.
It is a serious addition to any discerning videographer’s kit, raising the quality of audio recordings and enabling movies shot with a DSLR to sound as good as they look. It is compatible with all Nikon DSLR and Coolpix cameras that have a 3.5 mm connector for external microphones.
Designed with DSLR users in mind, the ME-1 is equipped with a vibration reduction mechanism that suppresses unwanted operation noise which can come from autofocus. As a unidirectional microphone it provides precise, targeted pick-up, allowing users to record exactly what they want to hear. Interference from external noise can be suppressed using the supplied windscreen, and a low-cut filter switch offers extra control over low-frequency noise. The sensitivity of the microphone can also be adjusted through the camera menu to control surrounding noise or ambient sound.
Retail price from R1599.
