Apogee Electronics has introduced the MiC/Zacuto Zgrip Jr. kit to deliver professional sound to HD video recording on the iPhone.
The kit is a fusion of the Apogee MiC, a studio-quality condenser microphone, and the Zgrip Jr., a solid handgrip for shooting video on the iPhone 4 or 4S.
Users are able to mount the MiC directly on the Zgrip and turn their iPhone into a professional handheld rig.
The Apogee MiC is the first studio-quality microphone to make a direct digital connection to GarageBand on the iPhone, iPad and Mac. The MiC’s pristine sound is a result of PureDIGITAL technology, delivering the natural tone of one’s voice or instrument right to the iPad, iPhone or Mac.
The Zacuto Zgrip iPhone Jr. also helps in attaining professional and stable mobile recordings on iPhone 4 or 4S. The phone (which is not included in the kit) simply snaps into the cradle attached to the handgrip. The handgrip has a ¼ 20” thread on the bottom for mounting to a tripod. It also has a 1/4 20” thread on top for mounting the Apogee MiC.
The kit includes:
—Apogee MiC
—Zacuto Zgrip Jr.
—0.5m cable for connection to iPad and iPhone
—1m cable for connection to Mac
—Quick start guide
—Desktop tripod
—MiC stand adaptor
The MiC/Zgrip Kit retails for $289.95.
