Hello!

I recently noticed my MKH50 that I bought second hand has a dent in the windscreen so I was thinking of sending it in for repair. I also noticed in my search though that the XLR plug on it is a little odd compared to what other MKH50s look like online. Has this changed over the years?

I sill reach out to sennheiser for a repair estimate, but before I do I'm concerned about the mic's authenticity, has anybody seen an xlr on an MKH50 like this?

Thanks in advance!
