As an XLR input expansion adapter for mirrorless cameras, the CA-XLR2d enables filmmakers and videographers to capture high-quality audio directly into the camera. With a digitized accessory shoe from Canon and a hot shoe from Fujifilm, the built-in high-performance AD converter enables filmmakers to transfer digitalized audio directly into cameras without any sound degradation.
Key features of the TASCAM CA-XLR2d include:
- Microphone adapter to add a professional audio XLR input to mirrorless cameras
- Direct digital audio transmission via a digitized accessory shoe with a built-in AD converter (only compatible for products from Canon and Fujifilm)
- Power is supplied by the camera using the data transmission shoe (only compatible with products from Canon and Fujifilm)
- Built-in high performance: the TASCAM HDDA (High Definition Discrete Architecture) mic-preamplifier achieves high-quality audio, low noise and wide dynamic range (Mic/Line level switchable, +48V Phantom power supply)
- Two modes on analog output:
- Camera mode for audio transfer to camera’s mic-in
- Headphone mode for direct headphone monitoring
