The SoundBird T3 features a built-in lithium-ion rechargeable battery, which provides up to 150 hours of run time. It can also be powered via +48V phantom power supplied from an XLR-equipped camera or recorder.
At 11.1", the SoundBird T3 is well suited for use mounted on a camera shoe, boompole, or stand (using the included shockmount). The mic comes with a protective foam windscreen and can benefit from the Saramonic TM-WS1 furry windshield (available separately) when recording in high-wind environments.
