The Sennheiser MKH8070 18" long
moisture-resistant shotgun microphone is purpose built for focused,
top-tier audio capture in high-pressure outdoor environments such as
sporting events and broadcast production. With extreme directivity,
drastically low self-noise, and ultrahigh sensitivity, the MKH 8070
delivers professional sonic performance that's ready for mixing.

Frequency Response Sheet
This shotgun microphone exhibits a pronounced lobar polar pattern, ensuring a consistently narrow focus and transparent, undistorted off-axis tone. Its wide frequency response, transformerless output, and high SPL handling let you record the action with uncompromised clarity.
Performs in Adverse Environmental Conditions
When
your work takes you outdoors, you're bound to encounter humidity and
condensation, which can cause many mics to fail. The MKH 8070's RF
circuit design makes it highly immune to moisture, allowing you to
reliably capture high-quality audio in normal and adverse environmental
conditions.
Professional Sound Quality
Offering
the same sonic signature as Sennheiser's other 8000-Series microphones,
the MKH 8070 was engineered with the experienced professional in mind.
Its 45 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response incorporates a gentle rise above 2
kHz to increase intelligibility and a natural bass roll-off to mitigate
rumble. Its extremely low self-noise of 8 dBA and ultrahigh sensitivity
of -19 dB enable studio-worthy signal purity without requiring noise
reduction and gain boosting in postproduction.
Phantom Powered
The
MKH 8070 boasts a transformerless and fully floating balanced output
for optimal signal integrity. Thanks to its 3-pin XLR output and
compliance with 44 to 52 VDC phantom power, the MKH 8070 is compatible
with a variety of handheld audio recorders, field recorders, and mixer
adapters as well as built-in preamps on many camcorders and cinema
cameras.
Digital Compatibility
When
used with the optional MZD 8000 digital module, the MKH 8070 becomes a
digital microphone that outputs AES42 signal at up to 24-bit / 192 kHz
resolution and allows remote control of DSP functions such as low-cut
filtering and attenuation.
Ideal for Boompole Mounting
The
MKH 8070's metal body features a nonreflective Nextel coating to
prevent distracting visual reflections. Mount the MKH 8070 directly on a
stand or boompole using the supplied mic clip, or place it in the
separately available Sennheiser MZS 20-1 combination shockmount, pistol
grip, and stand adapter to prevent the transfer of vibrations to the
microphone.
Windscreen Minimizes Wind Noise
The
MKH 8070 has a foam windscreen to reduce unwanted wind noise from
breezes, fans, heaters, and air conditioners. For maximum reduction of
wind noise in indoor or outdoor environments, consider the Sennheiser
MZW 80-1 blimp-style windshield (available separately and requires the
MZS 20-1 pistol grip).
