Sony - ECMM1 Multi-directional Shotgun Microphone - Black
About this product
ECM-M1 completely redefines shotgun microphone performance with beamforming technology that provides the world’s first eight dial-selectable audio recording modes in a compact microphone with outstanding versatility and audio quality. ECM-M1 easily achieves optimum sound quality in various video shooting situations.
Eight audio recording modes
Beamforming technology combines four discrete microphone capsules with precision algorithms to maximize pickup sensitivity in the desired directions while reducing it in others.
Simple and easy controls
Simply turning a dial on the rear of the microphone allows easy, intuitive selection of pickup patterns, and a lock button in the centre prevents accidental changes. Other controls are also straightforward and easy to understand and operate.
Digital audio interface
The digital audio interface offers an all-digital signal path from microphone to camera, avoiding the noise and distortion associated with analogue transmission, and retaining the full benefit of the digital signal processing in the microphone.
Digital noise cut filter
The ECM-M1 features a complete digital pathway, from beamforming control, to noise filtering and interfacing with the camera. The result is the clearest sound possible, for everything you capture.
Compact size and lightweight
With four mic capsules arranged in a rhombic pattern plus beamforming technology to control directivity, this advanced microphone is remarkably compact and lightweight. It is just 64.4 x 40.0 x 72.2 mm in size and weighs a mere 65 grams.
Supplied wind screen
The ECM-M1 is supplied with an effective fur-type wind screen, easily detachable, that can reduce wind noise when shooting outdoors.
Backup safety recording
4-channel recording with compatible camera, with channels 3 and 4 ideally suited to making backup “safety” recordings.
Battery-free & cable-free
Multi Interface (MI) Shoe support allows the microphone to be connected to the camera without additional batteries or cables. Power is supplied to the microphone from the camera, eliminating the need to charge and monitor a separate battery.
Dust and moisture resistant
The ECM-M1 features a dust and moisture resistant design that allows reliable operation in challenging outdoor conditions.
Easy operability
Comprehensive, clearly marked controls make it easy to adjust and confirm all microphone settings.
Shooting freedom and mobility
The small size of ECM-M1 keeps the overall system compact for maximum shooting freedom and mobility. It can also be easily added to gimbal or grip mounted rigs and won’t extend into the frame with a wide-angle lens.
Mechanical noise suppression
A design that dampens shock and vibration effectively minimizes low-frequency mechanical noise. The absence of connecting cables also means that no noise can be transmitted to the microphone mechanically via cables and connectors.
