Microphone
A microphone is provided that prevents or reduces generation of noises caused by vibration from a grip body. A microphone includes a grip body having a shape of a cylinder, a head case attached to the grip body, a microphone unit disposed inside the head case, an internal cylinder to which the microphone unit is attached, and an elastic member configured to undergo shear deformation in the longitudinal direction of the grip body. The internal cylinder is disposed inside the grip body with the elastic member.
