90 degree angled mic cable at DVinfo.net

Robert Bobson · April 2nd, 2006, 07:27 AM

anyone have any trouble with xlr cables pointing straight out of the camera? I'm concerned about too much stress on that connector.

I was about to buy a mic cable with a 90 degree angle on the end that plugs into the camera, but the picture on B&H website looks like the bend would make the cable go towards the back of the camera rather than down.

Anybody?...anybody?...Bueller? :)

Neutrik right angle XLRs are designed in such a way that you can alter the direction of the angle to suit your equipment.

Thanks for the info.

I looked on the Neutrik site and see they have 90 degree connectors for building your own cables.

I was hoping for just a right angle adapter that would plug into the camera and the mic cable.
