The BP4073 is a compact professional shotgun condenser optimized for broadcast ENG and EFP production, featuring an interference tube shorter than the BP4071 family while maintaining professional-grade noise performance. Its reduced physical length makes the BP4073 well suited for on-camera mounting, pistol grip use, and boom pole operation in tight production spaces where a full-length shotgun would be impractical.

Compact Shotgun for Camera Work

The shorter overall length of the BP4073 provides practical advantages for camera-mounted use, reducing the forward weight extension on handheld camera rigs and providing a lower profile on shoulder-mount configurations. Despite the compact dimensions, the interference tube delivers effective mid and high frequency directionality appropriate for broadcast dialogue at typical ENG working distances.

Low Self-Noise and Phantom Power

The BP4073 operates on 48V phantom power and achieves a self-noise specification consistent with professional broadcast requirements. The transformerless output circuit provides clean signal transmission with excellent common-mode rejection for use with long cable runs in fixed plant and boom pole configurations.
