Overview
The handheld Auray Universal Microphone Pistol Grip features an ergonomic cushioned handle. This grip is ideal for run & gun situations, in which a boom pole would be cumbersome. It also suits in video scenarios, in which the cameraman is also responsible for audio recording.
Unlike your boom pole which requires two hands, you can hold this Universal Microphone Pistol Grip in one hand. It also provides the option of being able to record audio from a different direction than the camera is pointing, an advantage over camera mounting the mic.
Since this mic grip is mounted off your camera, as opposed to on-board, you won't pick up motor noise from lens focusing.
In addition, the grip features standard 3/8" threads on both ends. This allows you to attach your shotgun mic (with shockmount) to one end of the grip and mount the other end to a boom pole. This gives you the flexibility of being able to quickly detach the pistol grip and the attached shotgun mic from the boom, an option that can come in handy for entering areas that too small to fit your boom pole.
NOTE: Booms, shockmounts, and microphones are sold separately. Grip includes Limited 1-Year Warranty.
