I've bought a Schoeps CMIT-5U after I've been using quite a long, long time MKH-416 from Senn and I must say that in my opinion it sounds better and also look better with that blue finish. :) And after I have been using for some time CMIT in a variety of recording situations, typical and untypical for a shotgun and it handled excellent i think that it will remain my favorite for some long time from now. Obvious the main application remain field recording but i wouldn't mind if i will have to use it in studio on drums, for example or better on acoustic guitar where i think it is almost perfect.
It is a great mic and it worth every single dime and I am so glad I've made the choice of buyin' it.
