If you want a great all-around shotgun and do not have a thousand dollars to invest in higher-end equipment, then this is the mic for you. The AT875R combines a directional capsule (gradient) and an interference tube to remove unwanted sound from the rear. On contrary, while those bigger shotguns can usually provide a more directional pick-up pattern, they may require a boom operator and will less likely accommodate for an easy on-camera solution.

Battery -powered models are included as well as phantom-powered only, or battery and phantom powered types. However, if you want, you can use it with another windshield like the Rycote 12 cm Super-Softie for further attenuation of the wind noise. Designed for' video production and broadcast (ENG/EFP) audio acquisition', it is suited for both boom and handheld use, providing the narrow acceptance angle desirable for long-distance sound pick-up, with 'excellent sound rejection from the sides and rear'. In this review, we provide some raw audio samples along with the same samples recorded on the classic Sennheiser MKH416.This short shotgun offers 'outstanding long-distance audio pickup due to the narrow acceptance angle of line plus gradient design.
