Panasonic AG-MC200G Microphone

The Panasonic AG-MC200G is a professional-grade microphone designed primarily for video production and broadcast applications. Its supercardioid polar pattern and condenser capsule make it an excellent choice for capturing clear and focused audio, ideally suited for environments where directivity and noise rejection are crucial. The Supercardioid Polar Pattern is highly directional, focusing on sound coming from the front while minimizing noise from the sides and rear. This makes it ideal for isolating speech from background noise, especially in outdoor or acoustically challenging environments. Condenser mics are known for their sensitivity and ability to capture sound with accuracy and detail. This makes the AG-MC200G great for capturing nuances in dialogue and natural ambient sounds. The microphone requires an external 48V phantom power supply, which is a standard feature on most professional audio recording devices, such as field recorders, mixers, and some high-end cameras. The industry-standard XLR connection ensures high-quality audio transmission and compatibility with professional audio equipment. The 160 Hz to 20 kH frequency response range indicates that the microphone can capture a broad spectrum of sounds, from the low-end bass frequencies to the high-end treble tones, covering most audible sounds necessary for field production and broadcasting. To reduce wind noise and plosives (such as the "p" popping sound), the microphone comes with a foam windscreen which can be particularly useful when recording outdoors or in a setting with air movement.

The Panasonic AG-MC200G supercardioid condenser microphone is a solid choice for professionals in need of a directional microphone with high audio quality. Suitable for everything from field reporting to studio recording, its design ensures that your productions have clear and focused sound. The inclusion of a foam windscreen adds value by providing immediate wind noise reduction. Given its professional features and requirements for phantom power, this microphone is best suited for those who have access to the necessary supporting gear and are looking for an investment into their audio production capabilities.
