Overview
The Tilta Mini XLR to 3-Pin XLR Adapter for Canon C80 is a precision-engineered audio solution designed to connect professional XLR microphones directly to the Canon C80’s 3.5 mm Mini-XLR input. It provides full 48 V phantom power passthrough, low-impedance signal transfer, and robust shielding for reliable, interference-free audio in demanding production environments.
Core Features
- Full 48 V phantom power passthrough for condenser microphones.
- Gold-plated XLR pins rated for 5000+ mating cycles.
- Double-shielded OFC cable for RFI/EMI rejection.
- Right-angle Mini-XLR design reduces strain on the camera port.
- Colour-coded channel rings for quick identification.
Audio Performance
This adapter maintains a clean, balanced audio signal thanks to its low end-to-end impedance, double-shielded OFC cable construction, and full phantom power passthrough. It supports condenser microphones without external power sources and preserves frequency accuracy across the full audible range.
Cable Construction
A durable 2 mm strain-relief system ensures longevity under heavy production demands.
Connector Design
- Right-angle Mini-XLR male connector for reduced port strain.
- Neutrik-compatible XLR3 female ensures secure, stable microphone attachment.
- Gold-plated pins minimise resistance and ensure long-term reliability.
Build Quality
CNC-machined aluminium shells with a matte black anodised finish offer IP54 dust and splash resistance. This durable construction ensures dependable performance across temperatures ranging from –20 °C to +70 °C.
Studio & Field Integration
Engineered for film and location sound work, the adapter rejects RFI/EMI noise from sources such as 5G devices or motorised stabilisers. Dual-channel colour-coded rings make channel identification fast and intuitive on-set.
