Focused Audio & Studio Precision: Sennheiser MKE 400 Shotgun Microphone
The Sennheiser MKE 400 is an advanced, highly directional on-camera shotgun microphone designed to deliver isolation, acoustic depth, and professional audio capture for DSLR, mirrorless, and smartphone videography.
Featuring an acoustic interference tube with a supercardioid/lobar polar pattern, the MKE 400 targets sound directly in front of your camera while rejecting background chatter and acoustic reflections. Its internal design incorporates built-in shock mounting and mesh wind protection inside a durable, compact metal housing. Available now in our Sennheiser pro audio store catalog, the MKE 400 includes active gain control and real-time headphone monitoring for complete sound oversight on set.
Key Features & Pro-Level Advantages
- Highly Directional Supercardioid/Lobar Pickup: Focuses sharply on subject speech while suppressing ambient background noise and room reflections.
- Integrated Shock Mount & Internal Wind Shielding: Internal suspension eliminates camera handling thumps, while internal mesh shields against light wind noise.
- 3-Step Sensitivity Adjustment (-20 dB, 0 dB, +20 dB): The +20 dB boost provides clean gain for cameras with noisy internal preamps, ensuring distortion-free audio.
- Low-Cut Filter Switch: Eliminates low-frequency HVAC rumble, traffic hum, and wind noise at the source.
- Headphone Output with Volume Control: On-board 3.5 mm headphone jack with 8-stage digital volume control allows real-time audio monitoring on any camera setup.
- Smart Auto-Powering Function: Automatically senses when your camera turns on or off to maximize battery longevity (up to 100 hours on 2x AAA batteries).


Focus your sound
The MKE 400 features a super-cardioid polar pattern achieved by an acoustic interference tube, providing focus and detail while rejecting unwanted background noise. Ideal for vloggers and videographers alike, this highly directional microphone will enhance your audio and bring presence and clarity to your recordings.

Record with confidence
All handheld cameras are susceptible to handling noise, so the MKE 400 features integrated wind protection and shock absorption. This combination ensures the cleanest audio recordings possible while shooting video on the move. Attach the included furry windshield for maximum wind protection in outdoor environments.

Versatile by design
In today’s world, your video recording is most likely not confined to one device, and your microphone doesn’t have to be either. Each MKE 400 includes 3.5 mm TRS and TRRS locking cables to be used with DSLR/M cameras or mobile devices.

Adapt to the situation
Let’s face it, poor acoustic environments are practically unavoidable when traveling or shooting on location. That’s why the MKE 400 comes equipped with both a low-cut filter and a 3-step gain sensitivity switch. Use the low-cut filter to remove problematic low frequency rumble or wind noise and adjust your gain sensitivity to optimize recording levels in any environment.

Before you start rolling
One of the most important steps when recording audio is to check your levels and monitor your sound. While some cameras have a headphone jack, not all do, and that’s where the headphone monitoring output comes into play. Plug any 3.5 mm headphone directly into the MKE 400 and use the integrated volume control to dial in your recordings.
