It can even used off-camera by connecting it to a boom pole or pistol grip connected to a portable audio recorder such as the Zoom F2 Field Recorder.
The mono ZSG-1 uses off-axis rejection and a tailored frequency response, to capture highly directional audio while minimizing background noise, making it perfect for recording dialogue and creating sound effects.
At just 3.3 ounces, the ZSG-1 is super lightweight and portable and will fit nicely on any rig, and the (included) shock mount helps to reduce handling noise and vibration.
