It's short length ensures the mic stays out of the shot, even when used with compact digital cameras. Featuring smooth, natural-sounding on-axis audio quality it provides the narrow acceptance angle desirable for long-distance sound pickup with excellent sound rejection from the sides and rear of mic.
