Sennheiser MKH 8060 Compact Shotgun Microphone
Short and light enough for a camera or a boom, the Sennheiser MKH 8060 is a compact shotgun for feature films, documentaries, outdoor shoots, and studio sessions, with a very natural sound.
Its supercardioid to lobar pattern turns sound from the sides down without coloring it, so a voice that drifts off axis gets quieter but keeps its tone. Indoors, where room reflections reach the mic from every side, the sound stays natural.
The RF circuitry makes the mic very resistant to bad weather, and the rugged metal body has a non-reflective Nextel coating. It shares the sound of the other MKH 8000 mics. Like them it is modular, and the MZF 8000 filter module adds a pad and a switchable roll-off.
