Sanken CS-1e Short Shotgun Microphone product description

Professional Audio in a Compact Form Factor

The Sanken CS-1e is a high-performance short shotgun microphone designed to meet the rigorous demands of film and video professionals. Measuring just 181.5mm in length, this microphone is easily concealed from the camera's frame while delivering the sharp directivity typically found in much longer interference tubes.

Versatile Performance for ENG and Film

Engineered for maximum mobility, the CS-1e is an ideal choice for one-man ENG operations and field recording. Its lightweight 80g design ensures it won't unbalance camera mounts or cause fatigue during long sessions on a boom pole. Despite its compact size, it provides excellent reach and ambient noise rejection, making it perfect for capturing clear dialogue in challenging environments.
