## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it include the windscreen?**
A: includes the foam one that works moderately, but in windy conditions you might consider the furry dead cat to go over the foam one.

**Q: If i used a XLR to 3.5 adapter to plug this into a dslr would it work?**
A: It needs phantom power to work. So, if DSLR has phantom power then it should work. I love this mike, I use w/ fs700 and one on a portable Tascam recorder.

**Q: Will this mic work with the sony ex3 camera?  and would it plug directly into the camera without any other components?**
A: Yes as long as it has an XLR connection

**Q: Will this connect to a sony nxcam?**
A: Yes, this Mic is a great fit for the NX5U and the NX100
