      Shotgun Microphones

      At Markertek, we love spreading the word about microphones that are designed to enhance your broadcasts and pro recordings. Whether you need a shotgun mic for camera use in the field, or a music production alternative when recording vocals, we have the best microphones on the market. We're proud to offer a shotgun mic selection from respected brands like Audio-Technica, Sennheiser, and Sony.

      What is a Shotgun Microphone?

      Typically mounted on a camera or attached to a boom, a shotgun mic has a long housing that resembles a gun. Also known as an "interference tube", the housing ensures that it will only pick up sound from the front of the microphone, while rejecting it from the sides. Most shotgun mic setups include a windscreen (the mic is sensitive to wind noise), a camera shock mount, a stand clamp, and a connector that plugs into your camera.

      What is the Difference Between a Boom Mic and a Shotgun Mic?

      While a shotgun mic refers to a specific type of camera microphone, a boom only refers to the extendable arm that positions a microphone. Any mic that you mount on a boom can be called a "boom mic". Meanwhile, a shotgun microphone usually has a hypercardioid polar pattern, which is highly directional and picks up far less background noise. For example, popular shotgun mics like the Audio-Technica BP4029 were used to broadcast the Olympics with pinpoint accuracy and clarity.

We offer a 100% Money Back Satisfaction Guarantee and free shipping on any order, even if you're purchasing a single mic accessory. We also carry a variety of other microphone designs, including condensers, dynamic mics, and headsets. Thank you for visiting Markertek!
