Overview:
The MXL FR-310 video mic delivers sound that's as focused as
the video. Mount it onto your camcorder or DSLR camera, and you'll cut to
tighter, cleaner sound recordings.
- The FR-310 shuts out sound from the sides
and back, with a pickup pattern that targets sound in front of the camera.
- Three gain settings pull in the right amount of sound in close-up or long shot
situations, while a bass roll-off switch leaves low-frequency noise on the
cutting-room floor
- The integrated windscreen helps block wind noise, which
aids in keeping your sound in the picture.
Features:
- Three-position gain switch
- Bass roll-off (high-pass filter)
- Standard hot shoe mount
- Up to 500 hours per AAA battery
- Integrated foam windscreen
- Includes AAA Battery & Case
Panel Features:
Attaching the microphone
- A standard hot shoe mount is located on the bottom of the
FR-310. Rotating the knurled tightening ring counterclockwise will
make mounting the microphone easier. Tightening the ring after
the microphone is securely in the camera’s hot shoe mount will improve
stability.
- The FR-310 is equipped with a captive signal cable that has
a 3.5mm jack. Insert the jack into the external microphone socket on your
recording device
Power
The FR-310 is powered by an internal AAA battery. Use a
fresh battery to get the best performance from the microphone. We also
recommend carrying a spare battery.
- A fresh battery should provide up to 500 hours of continuous
recording.
- A battery indicator light is located on the right side of
the microphone.
- When the indicator light is
illuminated, the battery is close to running out of life and should be replaced.
- The light will not be illuminated when
the battery is not close to running out of life or when the microphone is turned off.
- The indicator light will flash when the
microphone’s power switch is moved to the “On” position.
Note: Remember to turn the microphone off when it is not in
use.
