## Description

From the manufacturer MKE 600 Shotgun mic for cameras capable of handling the most demanding filmic challenges. Effectively attenuates noise coming from the sides and rear. he MKE 600 is the ideal video camera/camcorder microphone able to handle even demanding filmic challenges. Due to its high directivity, the MKE 600 picks up sounds coming from the direction in which the camera is pointing and effectively attenuates noise coming from the sides and rear. The switchable “Low Cut” filter additionally minimizes wind noise. Because some video cameras/camcorders do not provide phantom power, the MKE 600 can also be battery powered.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Will the mic pickup noise from the motor or arm movement if attached to the dji om3 gimbal?**
A: The mic is sensitive to all noise in close proximity. Overall, it’s not an amazing mic but built more for vlogging. 
I hope this was helpful.

**Q: I'd like to purchase a hard case for this mic, any recommendations?**
A: I'd recommend an HPRC case: they're very well built watertight and crush resistant cases comparable to Pelican cases but significantly cheaper in price. The MKE 600 is about 10" in length so You'd need at least the HPRC 2300 which has an interior width of 12". http://www.amazon.com/HPRC-2300F-Hard-Cubed-Black/dp/B004B8VLS2/ref=pd_sim_sbs_421_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=05B35GHGSTH9H59KBPJ5Another option would be the Seahorse SE-520F: http://www.amazon.com/Seahorse-SE-520F-Protective-Case-With/dp/B001A1PTCC/ref=pd_sim_200_1?ie=UTF8&refRID=1W4QR2HG9EGDJ1VVK9X5I own a few HPRC cases and I'm very pleased with them. Have not owned any Seahorse cases yet, but reviews seem to be overwhelmingly positive. Both are very similar in price. (note: both brands have different color options, but with HPRC the price can vary significantly between color choices on Amazon. For example: currently the Black HPRC 2300 on Amazon is $83.90, while the Yellow and Blue models are priced at $69.90, and the Red model is $64.95)

**Q: does this come with a bracket and hot-shoe mount to put on my cameras?**
A: The Senn MKE 600 does not come with a "bracket" however, it does include a shock mount that can slide into and tighten upon and within a cold shoe mount.  The shock mount is low profile. Some cam ops really like it, others say it's a little flimsy. It wouldn't be a bad idea to additionally get a mount from KTek

**Q: Will it fit into the C100's mic mount?**
A: No I use these rubber rings from lowes I bought on my c100 mic combo.

*by M***K on 9 February 2025*

Best purchase. But you need an external recorder for the best output. I am using Tascam DR-40 and getting very detailed crisp sound. As compared to wireless mic there is an hustle to use this because this requires a full setup and wireless mic are just plug and play. But trust me the whole process is worth it the output you get from this mke600 is very detailed so if you are seeking quality just go for it.
