Audio Technica ATR-55 Condenser Shotgun Microphone Reviews

Customer Rating:
Summary: Great Value
Comment: This microphone, while clearly not the top of the line, is great in doing what it's meant to do: be a cheap microphone. It's perfect for beginning videographers, interviewers, or sound designers. While the audio quality leaves something to be desired, the positive aspects make up for it. The output is a 1/8 in audio jack, which normally would be a downside, due to loss of quality, but in terms of use, most beginners will be better off with the 1/8th in over XLR as most prosumer cameras have inputs for 1/8 in and not XLR. A great buy!

Summary: Decent Inexpensive Microphone
Comment: I bought this mic for the usual home videos including vocal performances by my son. The ATR-55 seems to perform considerably better than the microphone built into my older video camera. Sensitivity is better, clarity is better, and the ATR-55 seems to be more directional.

Summary: Buen producto, pero sólo para "consumer"
Comment: En cuanto a la entrega del pedido, excelente, sin fallas y en el tiempo indicado.

Respecto al Audio Technica ATR-55, el microfono es muy bueno, pero yo lo recomendaria solo para consumidores, es decir, este no es un microfono para profesionales ya que tiene una capadidad menor de alcance. En el modo NORMAL, nos da una calidad similar a la del microfono de la camara; pero en el modo TELE obtenemos un radio mayor de alcance.

El sonido tiene un buen registro y otra de las cuestiones por la que no lo recomiendo para profesionales, es debido a que el microfono captura en MONO el sonido, lo cual, para alguien que quiera hacer un video serio no es muy bueno.

Insisto, recomendable para quienes graban evetnos sociales y cosas por el estilo, pero no para un "Prosumer".
