The CA-XLR2d lineup is a collaboration between TEAC Corporation working independently with Canon Inc., FUJIFILM Corporation and Nikon Corporation. The strategy is to combine the leading camera manufacturers know-how, and the high quality audio capturing technology from TASCAM.
The video and movie streaming market has been quickly expanding, and it is widely known that audio quality is one of the essential elements to influence viewers engagement. Because of this, the number of video creators and producers who are exploring better audio quality as well as better image quality has been increasing.
Since mirrorless cameras typically used for high quality video shooting do not accommodate a XLR input for professional microphones or a high-quality preamplifier, there are very limited options to upgrade your audio quality within the capability of camera itself. Currently when you need high-quality XLR microphones to capture professional audio, a digital audio recorder is required to capture audio separately from the camera. However, extra time is needed to synchronize your audio and video manually when editing.
To solve this issue, the CA-XLR2d was planned as a XLR input expansion adapter for mirrorless cameras that enables filmmakers and videographers to capture high quality audio directly into cameras. The result is the audio from the XLR input is directly recorded into the camera along with the video. Filmmakers and videographers no longer need extra time to synchronize audio and movie when editing.
What is more remarkable is with a digitized accessory shoe from Canon and hot shoe from Fujifilm, the built-in high performance AD converter will enable filmmakers to transfer crystal clear digitalized audio directly into cameras without any audio degradation.
CA-XLR2d is the perfect solution to meet the needs from professional users who demand the best audio quality to amateur users who are discovering a higher level of audio quality as part of video content.
FUJIFILM Kit “CA-XLR2d-F”
Thanks to co-development of a digital hot shoe connection with FUJIFILM Corporation, compliant with Fujifilm’s digital hot shoe, digital audio transmission directly into the camera and buss power supply from the camera is available to build a cable-free system for high mobility.
Preliminary product compatibility include: Mirrorless digital camera “FUJIFILM X-T4”, “FUJIFILM X-S10”
With the included 2 x AA battery box and cold shoe mount adapter, CA-XLR2d also works with existing cameras which don’t have the digital hot shoe by connecting an analog audio cable between CA-XLR2d’s analog out and camera’s mic-in.
