Audio-technica Ae-5100 - Large-diaphragm Cardioid Instrument Microphone
- Product Code: ga248412
-
The Audio-Technica AE5100 is a large diaphragm condenser microphone designed for capturing instruments. The sensitivity and frequency response make it suitable for overheads, percussion and acoustic instruments such as guitar and strings. The large diaphragm element delivers natural, transparent signal reproduction and withstands high transients without distortion and noise. The sleek low-profile design allows flexible microphone placement options. A high pass filter switch eliminates noise below 80Hz and a 10dB provides additional headroom when capturing excessively loud signal sources. The AE5100 is powered via external 11V to 52V phantom power source.

Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. will this lens work on a Pentax K-50 body?
A: Yes, it is the standard pentax mount which works perfectly on all pentax cameras. Although it is manual focus. the lens meters automatically when on the T setting of the shutter dial.The lens is great irregardless of the price. I'm glad I bought it.

Q: 3. Anyone knows if focus peaking will be available on Panasonic G85?

Q: 4. Is this lens work canon 750d?
A: Yes
Q: 5. is this works on Nikon d810 for Astro photography??? SPL for milkyways and landscapes ??
A: As you own a full-frame camera, yes, the Samyang 35mm f/1.4 AS UMC Lens for Nikon F (AE Chip) may be used on the Nikon D810 DSLR camera to photograph the Milky Way. However, I say that with a caveat. 35mm is normally the shortest wide angle lens that is typically recommended for use when trying to photograph the Milky Way with a full-frame camera for two main reasons: First, it is one of the shortest focal lengths that will still allow you to capture a majority of the Milky Way. Second, with shorter wide angle lenses, you have a shorter amount of time before the rotation of the Earth starts to cause star trails, which can make your image look slightly blurry. It simply depends on what you are trying to capture. The Samyang 24mm f/1.4 ED AS UMC Wide-Angle Lens for Nikon, B&H # SA2414AEN, may allow you to capture more of the landscape and the Milky Way, and allow you to have longer exposure times to capture detail before incurring star trail issues, but it is a personal preference.
Q: 6. I have a Nikon D5300 camera, and am looking to get a wide angle lense for in door and outdoor low light photography. Is this a good lens for what I want it for?
A: for interiors, this is the best lens for the money. Tripod and f/8 aperture or smaller recommended
Q: 7. does it fits the NikonD3300? if no is there are similar lens specs that would fit D3300?
A: It will fit and will be manual focus only.
Q: 8. For 75% stills use and 25% video, would this be the better lens or the T1.5 DS cine lens? Thanks
A: If it is primarily for photos, this lens would be the better option. If it were more on the video side, at that point I would say the T1.5 would be a better go to option.
Q: 9. Can I use this lens on a Nikon D5300 DX format camera?
A: This lens is compatible with a Nikon D5300.
Q: 10. Does this focus in the opposite direction as my Pentax lenses? In other words, does it focus the Nikon/Pentax way or Canon/Zeiss way?
A: It focuses the Canon/Zeiss way.
