Audio-Technica's AT897 is designed for field audio acquisition in
film/TV/video production, professional recording, wildlife recording
and broadcast applications. It mounts conveniently on a DV camcorder
without adding noticeable heft, and remains out of the frame even with
compact digital cameras. This high-performance short shotgun offers
outstanding long-distance audio pickup due to narrow acceptance angle
of line + gradient design. It also features smooth, natural-sounding
on-axis audio quality and excellent off-axis rejection of sound
arriving from the sides and rear of mic.
