Clear, focused dialogue for your videos, even when the mic is not right next to the speaker. The Audio-Technica AT875R Line + Gradient Condenser Microphone is a short shotgun mic made for video production and broadcast (ENG/EFP) audio. It is the shortest shotgun in Audio-Technica’s range, so it sits on a camera or boom without bulk.

Good to know
- It runs on phantom power only – there is no battery option. Use a recorder, mixer, interface or camera with an XLR input and phantom power.
- A camera with only a 3.5 mm mic input needs an XLR adapter or recorder that supplies phantom power.
- The included foam windscreen helps indoors and in light breeze.
- 5-year limited maker warranty (Audio-Technica US).
FAQ
Can I plug it straight into my camera?
Only if the camera has an XLR input with phantom power. The AT875R has an XLR output and needs 11-52 V phantom power.
Is it good for interviews?
Yes. It was designed for broadcast and video audio, with a narrow pickup that focuses on the speaker.
