The Polsen SCL-1075 Kit from B&H bundles two items that are quite complementary: a Polsen SCL-1075 Camera Mount Condenser Shotgun Microphone, and a dual-shoe bracket with silicon-rubber grip. The microphone, which has been optimized to reject ambient noise, operates in cardioid and supercardioid polar patterns. A battery and foam windscreen are included, as are multiple mic clips. It’s quite suited for run-and-gun applications, such as capturing interviews or recording the audio of indoor and outdoor events alike.
The dual-shoe bracket, on the other hand, attaches to the bottom of the camera and provides a holding spot for the microphone. It provides a side bracket with two cold shoes, so in addition to the mic, you can clip a light onto your recorder if need be. It mounts to tripods and more, gives you a silicon rubber grip, and is compatible with most camcorders and DSLRs.
