Sennheiser MKE 200 AV Mobile Kit Overview
The Sennheiser MKE 200 AV Mobile Kit is a traveller-friendly kit that makes it easy to put in your pocket for on-the-go recording.
Getting high-quality video is something that content creators tend to focus on, but high-quality sound can be left on the wayside, with many relying on the in-built microphones on their cameras or mobile phones which are not going to provide the best sound. Others don’t want to have to carry around bulky, expensive equipment, or don’t think it’s worth buying a separate microphone.
This is where the Sennheiser MKE 200 AV Mobile Kit comes in. The small directional on-camera microphone has a built-in wind screen and internal suspension mount to minimise unwanted background and handling noise, and there’s also an included furry windshield to use in more severe conditions, making it great for getting clear sound in noisy environments.
Also included is a Manfrotto PIXI, a durable, lightweight mini tripod with a ball-joint head and a push-button locking mechanism, with rubber feet to prevent slipping on any surface, and collapsible legs to make it ultra-compact. The smartphone clamp provides a secure fit for most phones, with the 180 degree locking dial allowing for portrait or horizontal positioning.
The MKE 200 on-camera microphone weighs just 48g and fits into your pocket, so there’s no reason not to take it everywhere you go, and it can be used with your DSLR, mirrorless camera, or mobile phone. It has a battery-free operation, making this small piece of gear particularly useful and versatile.
The Sennheiser MKE 200 is great value for money and is ideal for vloggers, influencers, and content creators on-the-go who use their mobile phones more than their bigger cameras, and those who want a robust, high-quality product that won’t take up too much space.
