USER’S GUIDE

Thank you for choosing Senal.
The Senal CS-88 DSLR-Video Shotgun Microphone is designed for recording live audio directly to your
DSLR. The CS-88’s cardioid polar pattern and shotgun design optimize the microphone to focus on the
subject while rejecting off-axis sound. Ideal for run-and-gun productions like recording interviews and
events indoors and in the field, the CS-88 attaches to your camera’s shoe mount or to a boom pole and
plugs into the camera’s audio input jack to deliver natural, professional-quality sound.
Among the benefits you’ll enjoy:
▪ Cardioid polar pattern
▪ Three-level gain switch (-10 dB, 0 dB, +10 dB)
▪ High-pass filter
▪ Integrated shock mount
▪ Metal shoe-mount adapter with 1/4″-20 threaded socket
▪ 3.5 mm audio connection
▪ Power LED
