Description

Battery-Powered Shotgun Condenser Mic With Switchable Cardioid/Hypercardioid & Hot-Shoe Mount – QTX SG350 Long Shotgun Microphone.

The QTX SG350 Long Shotgun Microphone (173.639UK) is a versatile, battery-powered condenser shotgun mic optimised for directional audio pickup in video, camera, and live applications. Its switchable cardioid/hypercardioid polar pattern (via a 3-way on/off switch) allows focused rejection of off-axis noise, making it excellent for isolating subjects in noisy environments—such as interviews, vlogs, film shoots, or ambient recording—while the long 350mm interference tube enhances reach and narrow pickup angle.

Powered by a single AA battery (no phantom required), it features an integral XLRM connector for direct plug-in to cameras, recorders, or mixers. Supplied with a foam windshield to minimise wind/breath noise, a clip for mounting, and a hot-shoe camera mount for quick attachment to DSLRs or camcorders, this mic delivers clear, detailed sound (50Hz–18kHz response) in a lightweight, durable package—ideal for content creators, videographers, filmmakers, podcasters with video, schools, churches, or any setup needing portable, directional audio without complex power setups.

Build And Portability

Compact cylindrical design (350 x 22mm Ø, 160g) with battery compartment in the body for easy field use; rugged enough for outdoor shoots or stage applications.

Connectivity And Mounting

Integral balanced XLRM output; hot-shoe mount enables direct camera integration, while the clip allows boom arm or stand use.
