Q: 4. My use case is I'm planning to have this as a boom and the talent may walk 2-3 feet around. (training - in front of a screen). The mic will be positioned overhead : How will the performance be impacted as a result? Is this still the mic for such a task?

A: This shotgun mic is highly directional, and any shift off axis from the front of the mic will result in a drop off in sound from the presenter. To use this mic, a boompole operator would need to follow the person with the mic as they move. If that is not an option, a lavalier mic on the presenter would be a better option to ensure that no matter where the presenter moves to, the audio is captured. Here's an example of a wired lav solution, B&H # SOECM77B.
