Microphone Booms
A fishpole boom is essential for getting the microphone close
to the subject, including following a moving subject, while
keeping the soundman out of frame.
The Super8 SoundBoom is a ten-ounce three-section aluminum
fishpole boom that extends from 33" to 63". It comes
with a standard 5/8"-27 microphone thread, an optional 3/4"
diameter microphone mount, or an optional elastic suspension
shock mount.

Parabolic Microphone Reflector
This clear see-through parabolic reflector increases microphone
directivity and sensitivity by between 10 and 20dB
for distant sources. Essential for getting tight close-in
sound that matches the tight shots possible with a Super 8
telephoto zoom lens. Especially useful for concerts, sporting
events, lectures, press conferences, etc. where it's difficult
to place a microphone at the subject. Includes a vinyl
carrying case. Use the SONY ECM220 microphone for best
results.

Headphones
Monitor headphones are an essential part of location sound
recording. They are the precise sound equivalent of the
camera's reflex viewfinder, revealing sound quality from
the point of view of the microphone, which may be on a
fishpole boom, or placed on the set. They help the beginning
soundman to overcome his ear's normal tendency to
filter out location noise such as traffic and airplanes. They
force him to hear that noise as it will sound objectively on
playback, through the one dimension of the screening room
loud speaker, rather than the subjective impressions of the
three-dimensional original location.
Heavy -duty, modest sound quality stereophones .................................... HP
A stereophone-to-miniplug adapter permits you to use any
pair of stereophones as a monitor headset with the Super8
Sound Recorderand other recorders with miniphone earphone
jack.

Super8 Sound Recorder, or other recorders with a sub-mini
plug remote control, from up to 100 feet away. Transmitting

Slate/Clapstick
Our standard wooden slate and clapper board are somewhat
smaller and less expensive than the normal size. With a Super
8 camera it is easy to zoom in to read the scene markings,
then pull back to shoot the scene.

Sync Meter
This accessory plugs into the sync socket of the Super8
Sound Recorder, and mounts securely to the handle of the
Recorder. It has a standard locking DIN sync socket into
which any Super8 Sound sync cable may be plugged, and
serves to display sync condition, allowing the internal meter
of the Recorder to be dedicated to record level settings.
