The long shotgun microphone MKH 8070 was especially

designed for picking up distant sources of sound in best

quality. Its very natural sound makes it the ideal choice for

major broadcast and sporting events. Featuring extreme

directivity and a pronounced lobar pick-up pattern it will

reliably capture that magic moment from a distance, even

under the toughest sonic and climatic conditions. The

MKH 8070‘s special design ensures attenuation of off-axis

sound without coloration. Like all mics of the 8000-family

it can be easily combined with the MZD 8000 digital modu-

le, turning it into a full-ﬂedged digital microphone.
