About This Item

The Sony ECM-678/9X Short Shotgun Microphone is a professional-grade solution for film, broadcast, and field production that delivers clear, natural audio in a portable design. Compact and lightweight, it mounts easily on Sony HDV, DVCAM, and XDCAM cameras or on a boom pole for versatile use in studio or on-location shoots. Its supercardioid polar pattern provides precise directionality, emphasizing the subject while suppressing surrounding noise and unwanted ambience, ensuring speech and instruments remain sharp and intelligible. The microphone’s extended flat frequency response ensures natural, uncolored reproduction of dialogue and environmental sounds. With high sensitivity and low self-noise, the ECM-678/9X captures subtle nuances with accuracy, producing transparent audio that holds up in professional workflows. To further enhance clarity, a built-in low-cut filter switch reduces wind, rumble, and proximity-related low frequencies, keeping recordings clean even in challenging outdoor environments. Requiring +48V phantom power, the ECM-678/9X integrates seamlessly with professional camcorders, portable recorders, and mixing consoles without the need for batteries. Its solid construction ensures durability in rugged field conditions, providing consistent performance for demanding production needs. Accessories include a windscreen to suppress wind noise, a short XLR cable for simple setup, a microphone holder, and mounting spacers. Offering durability, portability, and natural sound reproduction, the ECM-678/9X is an ideal, cost-effective choice for filmmakers, videographers, and broadcasters needing a reliable short shotgun mic.Manufacturer Items Include:Sony ECM-678/9X Shotgun MicrophoneWindscreenStand adaptorShort XLR cableOperating instructionsMic spacerMic holderCarrying caseBundle Items Include:Sony ECM-678/9X Shotgun MicrophoneMicrophone CleanerMicrofiber ClothCable Ties
