Hello,

anyboy has any experience with Phantom power for the ME66 through K6-P?

Does it reduce battery autonomy significantly?

Does it require any camera setup?

Thanks,

Josep
 
I have this mic and I use it with phantom power with both the DVX and XL2. It doesn't seem to really take a lot of power from the batteries and its as simple as just hooking it up to the camera via XLR and turning phantom power on.
 
Thanks !!!

I had to make a decision, I have bought it and I expect to work a lot with it. Any special advice?

Do you use it mounted on the camera or with a boom?
 
K6 set the battery off if you use phantompower but you culd switch it of manual.
I use mine on the camera and to my EW 112-p G2 wireless
 
If at all possible, you should have someone booming the mic as close to the talent as possible without getting the mic into the frame. A boompole, shockmount, and high quality 25' + 50' XLR cables would be a good start.

The mic is very sensitive to loud sounds. Get a -20bd in-line attenuator from Shure. You'll be happy to have it with the DVX100a. Otherwise, you'll find the volume settings very unforgiving. Great mic...have used it for years.
