Hi Krystian-
Welcome to the list. Your English is very good!

Hopefully someone has personal experience with
the Yukon DSAS.  The mic manufacturer doesn't
provide specifications which is usually not a
good sign.

I'd suggest looking into mics with a proven track
record and in the same price range or $100USD
more, Rode makes several:

Rode B&H Kit NTG-2 Condenser Shotgun Microphone Kit

NT3 - Cardioid Studio Condenser Microphone

Rode Video Mic

I assume his recorder has an 1/8" or 3.5mm (probably stereo) mic input jack=
?
