Great microphone with a premium feel
IllegemsJ 28.10.2018
I use this microphone for outdoor efp's and I'm very happy with the results I'm getting.

Pros
- Clear sound
- Premium feel
- Good sound cancellation
- Very reasonable price for the microphone
- Compact

Cons
- Pretty high sound floor

I would recommend this microphone to anyone who is on a budget and want a semi-professional microphone that sounds good in most conditions.

Good shotgun mic for media and film sounds. Not too long, so it can fit in smaller bags too.

Never again!

This is my second microphone from AT. My first mic was a AT875R, a very nice camera mic. Then I was in need for a "better" microphone and I trusted the AT897. The quality was poor, the out put is way lower than its predesesor and it delivered a noisy sound which I always have to get rid off in the post. Sure you will find a better option on the same price range.

Bon rapport qualité/prix
Anonymous 27.01.2016
J'ai l'habitude de l'utiliser avec le Zoom H6 pour des courts-metrages, pubs, instit,...

C'est un micro robuste, abordable, avec une bonne sensibilité et une réponse fréquentielle plutot droite, contrairement aux ME 64 et 66 par exemple, qui sont plus brillants.
Niveau parfois un peu faible en exterieur, mais très correct pour le prix.

Je le recommande pour débuter la prise de son a la perche, c'est un très bon rapport qualité/prix, et un produit fiable.
