Professional Film Microphone Bundle

The Sennheiser MKH-416 is a short interference tube microphone built for film, broadcast and demanding outdoor recording. Its supercardioid/lobar polar pattern focuses on the desired source while minimising off-axis sound. The bundle adds a Zoom H5 recorder so location teams can capture professional audio immediately.

Rugged Climate Resistance

The transformerless RF condenser design handles 130 dB SPL without distortion and resists changing climate conditions. Very good feedback rejection and low proximity effect keep recordings clean during boom, fishpole or camera-mounted operation. No noise or power-draw figures are supplied for the recorder.

Windscreen and Recorder Included

A MZW 415 windshield reduces wind noise during outside broadcast work. The Zoom H5 recorder provides portable capture and monitoring without extra cabling. Buyers who need additional microphone capsules or multi-track field mixers will need separate purchases.

Questions about this item

How do I mount the MKH-416 on a boom pole and attach the MZW 415 windshield correctly?

Screw the MKH-416 into a standard 3/8" or 5/8" thread boom mount, then slide the MZW 415 windshield over the interference tube until it seats firmly against the microphone body.

What ongoing maintenance does the MKH-416 and Zoom H6 bundle require?

Clean the MZW 415 windshield foam periodically, check XLR and capsule contacts for corrosion, and replace the Zoom H6's AA batteries or rechargeable pack when runtime drops.

At what sound-pressure level does the MKH-416 reach its maximum SPL limit?

The MKH-416 handles up to 130 dB SPL before distortion becomes audible, making it suitable for loud outdoor broadcasts and close-miked sources.
