How to Choose a Shotgun Microphone?

  Whether it is commercial, wedding or movie audio recording, different microphones will give people a different video perception. So there are many things to note when recording audio, from the microphone placement to the microphone itself. Which one is suitable for you?
  For most productions, it is important to get the right audio for the first time, rather than revising later techniques such as audio editing, which can be time-consuming and expensive (although mixing is required in certain contexts, Dubbing and other special treatment). Then we start from understanding the microphone!
  Handheld microphones are perfect for interviewers or moderators, whether wired or wireless, and are often used in noisy environments where you need to pan and run, providing a very rich and complete sound. It can also be used on a stand to capture the audio of a subject that will not move. If you do not want the microphone to appear in the lens, a lavalier or shotgun microphone would be a better choice.
  Lavalier microphone is also divided into wireless and wired, generally used for lectures or singing, because the small unobtrusive, ideal for teachers or actors who need to dance when singing. In addition, TV interviews in the category of experts are generally do not like this Mike. The collar clip helps to block external noise because it is very close to the sound source. However, the noise of the subject's clothing as a result of movement may also render the audio captured by the microphone unusable. The overall effect is not as good as the sound of a handheld or shotgun microphone.

Shotgun Microphone
Shotgun microphone, which are long and thin, can be mounted on cradles, booms or cameras that support capturing audio far away from the subject compared to lapels and hand held microphones while still achieving good external noise immunity effect. However, it is sensitive to the hand-held noise and is not suitable for mounting on a camera or boom.
  There are a wide variety of microphone components, so there are different ways to pick up the sound, resulting in different sound effects. Due to differences in cost, durability, and functional requirements, condenser microphone and moving-coil microphones are commonly used in filming and post-production.

  In the most basic sense, the condenser microphone changes the position of the capacitor plate according to the sound level, so that the capacitance changes with the sound level and finally outputs the current signal. It uses a phantom power supply with a professional audio system to send over the microphone cable without interfering with the audio signal, otherwise a battery is required. Its main disadvantage is to work full power supply.
