The Zoom SGH-6 Shotgun Mic Capsule

Extend Your Reach

The SGH-6 Shotgun mic capsule is fully compatible with the Zoom H5 and H6 Handy Recorders as well as the Q8 Handy Video Recorder. It allows dialogue and narration to be recorded at a distance, without an obtrusive mic in the scene, making it perfect for film and video shoots, live theater, and ENG (electronic newsgathering) applications.

Hyperdirectional mic capsule for the Zoom H5 and H6 Handy Recorders as well as the Q8 Handy Video Recorder
Ultra-tight polar pattern allows the capture of distant sound with excellent off-angle noise rejection
Advanced digital signal processing for the pickup power of a conventional shotgun mic in a unit only half the size
Perfect for film, video, and live theater applications as well as ENG
Analog-style gain control for fast setting of input level
5-volt preamp minimizes distortion even at high volumes
Includes hairy windscreen for reduction of wind noise

All the Pickup, Half the Length

The three hyperdirectional microphone elements inside the SGH-6, combined with Zoom's advanced digital signal processing technology, give it the pickup power of a conventional shotgun mic in a unit only half the size.

Use the Right Microphone for the Job

Professional photographers and videographers choose the right lens to capture the optimum visual image. Why should audio be any different? Zoom's unique system of interchangeable input capsules allow you to always use the right microphone for the audio recording you're creating. The capsules snap on in seconds, allowing them to be swapped out as easily as the lens of a camera.

Zoom provides plenty of variety, too: Two different X/Y stereo mics for live music and concert recording, two different mid-side mics (one standard and one shotgun) for film and videography, two types of shotgun mics (one mono and one stereo), even an expander capsule that allows you to connect two additional external microphones or line-level sources.

SSH-6 Mid-Side Shotgun Mic Capsule

The SSH-6 stereo mid-side shotgun capsule allows you to capture dialogue with the mid (center) mic, and then blend in the desired amount of environmental sound captured by the side mic in postproduction.

EXH-6 Dual XLR/TRS Combo Input Capsule

The EXH-6 adds two more mic- or line-level inputs to your H5 or H6, allowing you to connect two more discrete signals from external microphones, instruments, mixers, or portable music players in order to fully realize your creative vision.

MSH-6 MS (Mid-Side) Mic Capsule

Step up to a whole new level of precision sound-shaping with the MSH-6, which contains a forward-facing, unidirectional mic (the “Mid”) and a side-facing, bi-directional mic (the “Side”). It allows you to capture a fully mono-compatible stereo image that can be adjusted during recording or in postproduction, making it ideal for film, video, and television projects.

XYH-5 Shockmounted X/Y Mic Capsule

The XYH-5 provides a pair of shockmounted stereo X/Y microphones that are designed to handle extremely loud sounds, making it the perfect choice for capturing the sound of live rock concerts and for electronic newsgathering (ENG) applications.

Product description

This capsule employs three internal microphones to achieve a frequency-independent, super-cardioid polar pattern. The SGH-6 is an appropriate choice for electronic news gathering and other applications that call for tight, highly directional shotgun miking.

The ZOOM H6 is not complete without this.

Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2015

Verified Purchase

Let's get one thing straight. If you are going to be doing interviews, or anything that requires the focusing on a sound "source" directly in front of you, then you need this mic. I have used Røde miss before and while they are good, they don't offer on-board sound processing and monitoring. This microphone does. If you are in an environment that all of a sudden gets noisy, turn the dial/gain down on the microphone as well as the Zoom H6 body and you are able to compensate. You can't do that with an on-board mic on your DSLR unless it's high end (2500k or more, usually) nor can you do it with the Røde mic, and thats not to throw jabs. It's just the truth.

The pickup pattern on this microphone is like a slim triangle...sound falls off from the sides so that the source in front gets paid the most attention.

The item is very well made, and feels extremely sturdy. I wouldn't allow it to be dropped multiple times though as its most likely aluminum and has some soft elements to it. It will scratch or dent if you are not careful...and like to drop it on surfaces like cement.

Too bright, but good quality overall.

Reviewed in the United States on November 10, 2016

Verified Purchase

This mic is overall of very good quality. I am using it with Zoom's H5 recorder (which I also love) and the noise floor is very low and I like that it is not sending the signal over an unbalanced connection like the Rode VideoMic does. And, overall, I think the side rejection is better than the VideoMic. Having said that, it is a very bright mic with very little low end, so it sounds rather unnatural. It's almost like hearing my voice through a phone speaker. Considering that the VideoMic is nearly the exact same price, I'd still suggest getting the VideoMic.

Weak on the Low End

I'm struggling to get much low end response from this mic. The focus is great, but I wonder if I should have shopped around a bit more and done more homework to know exactly the frequency response.

I first used this mic in the middle of a crowded room to record live music. The directionality is so tight that you can hardly hear the audience through the whole recording.

Incredible sound quality, I can't believe this Mic only costs $130. The Rode VideoMicro is excellent (I have one) but this blows the Rode away.

You won't be sorry.

Muffled.

I returned this. The sound it produces doesn’t sound pleasing. It sounded muffled. But the build quality is really good. I’m just not happy how muffled it sounds.

An absolute necessity for cleaner sound on your independent projects when shooting outdoors. This quiets down background noises like cars, planes, wind, and focuses on the voice of the subject. Be sure to get it as close as possible to your subject without being in frame.

Picks up voice very very clearly at 6 feet or so with a fairly wide "hot" zone

Reviewed in Canada on September 24, 2019

Verified Purchase

Sound is roughly equivalent to (or better than) most "close" lapel mics without any of the hassle of wiring them or dealing with wireless solutions. Just pop this mic behind the camera and point it at your talent and hit record. I have not yet tried it in windy conditions with the wind sock however indoor tests indicate the sock works wonders with reducing if not eliminated air "rushing" noises. Mic still picks up very clear, studio grade sound.

This mic attachment came with a zoom windscreen in the box. No need to order separately.

I was very happy to see this was included.

Solid quality, Great addition to my Zoom H6

Reviewed in Canada on August 3, 2017

Verified Purchase

I have used this shotgun mic with my Zoom H6 a few times now and it works a charm. Quality is really good, and it works a charm on set. Wish it came with the Zoom H6 when I bought it, but as a separate purchase, I have not been disappointed. Could have been a bit cheaper, but hey, it's worked well for me.
