Sennheiser MKH 8070: long shotgun microphone for long-distance shooting

The Sennheiser MKH 8070 is a long shotgun microphone designed to capture distant sound sources with great precision. With its extremely high directivity and lobar polar pattern, it is an ideal choice for sporting events, broadcast productions and filming where sound needs to be isolated from long distances.

The acoustic design ensures natural, coloration-free sound reproduction even when sounds come from off-axis.

Extreme directivity for sports and broadcast events

The MKH 8070 is specifically designed to capture distant sounds with maximum clarity. Its high directivity allows it to isolate the main sound source while effectively reducing noise from the sides.

This feature makes it perfect for sports shooting, TV productions, wildlife recording, and professional environmental recordings.

RF condenser technology for reliability in any environment

The microphone uses RF condenser technology typical of the MKH 8000 series, which ensures extremely stable performance even in harsh weather conditions such as hot, cold or high humidity.

Extremely low self-noise and low distortion allow every sonic detail to be captured with great accuracy.

Rugged construction and professional design

The Sennheiser MKH 8070 is built with a rugged metal body designed to withstand intensive use in the field. The Nextel® anti-reflective finish prevents reflections from lights during TV shoots or live events.

The microphone also maintains tonal consistency with all models in the MKH 8000 series, making it perfect for professional multichannel setups.
