Deity Microphones S-Mic 3 Shotgun Microphone

When pristine audio capture is non-negotiable, the Deity S-Mic 3 delivers with unmatched clarity and precision. Engineered for film, TV, and broadcast professionals, this ultra-light shotgun microphone combines broadcast-grade sound quality with rugged reliability to handle the most demanding production environments. With a supercardioid pickup pattern and superior -18dB off-axis rejection, it focuses on your subject while minimizing ambient noise and off-axis coloration, making it perfect for controlled and chaotic sets alike.

At its core, the S-Mic 3 boasts a 12dB noise floor (A-weighted) and 130dB SPL, ensuring quiet scenes are captured cleanly and loud environments remain distortion-free. Its high sensitivity means less gain is needed, reducing the risk of audio artifacts. With a frequency response from 50Hz to 20kHz, the mic captures the full audio spectrum with natural tonal balance. The moisture-resistant, aluminum-alloy body weighs just 80g-60% lighter than previous models-making it ideal for extended booming sessions. Plus, its RF interference suppression ensures uninterrupted performance even in dense RF environments.

Whether on location or in studio, the S-Mic 3 is a go-to solution for professionals who demand clarity, durability, and top-tier audio fidelity.
