Powering microphones for video

concertphotodude:
Question: Does one have to use a battery box to power microphones when videoing a concert? I am going to be using CA14s and / or AT853s and wondered if it is necessary to use supplemental power.
Thanks is advance!

concertphotodude:
I should also state I will be using a Canon Rebel 3ti.
Thanks

I've filmed shows with my Sony AX-100 with AT853s plugged into the mic out (no pre-amp) and they worked great.

bear in mind supplying correct power requirements allow mics to function to their stated specs , supply less and you risk more undesired effects such as distortion / brickwalling etc.

definitely use battery box. Also would be great to use attenuator cable too
