I finally found the best shotgun microphone for interviews for my Blackmagic 6K Pro - the Sennheiser MKE 600. After various tests and YouTube videos, the decision was relatively easy compared to the Rode NTG4+. The balanced sound and the powerful bass transmissions of the voice was decisive for me. The distracting operating noise of the Blackmagic is a challenge for any external microphone and can practically only be countered with a long shotgun microphone that is as far away from the camera as possible.

Next week I have a video interview and there I will test the whole thing again. As an alternative, I still have Rode Wireless Go solution, which has also proven itself so far.

What are your experiences with external microphones for the Blackmagic?
