Sony ECM-M1 - Microphone

Key Features and Benefits:

• Simple controls for easy setting and operation
  Simply turning a dial on the rear of the microphone allows easy, intuitive selection of pickup patterns, and a lock button in the center prevents accidental changes. Other controls are also straightforward and easy to understand and operate.
• Digital signal processing for quality audio
  The ECM-M1 features a complete digital pathway, from beamforming control, to noise filtering and interfacing with the camera. The result is the clearer sound possible, for everything you capture.
• Digital noise cut filter for clear sound
  Continuous background noise is effectively suppressed by a digital noise-cut filter for clear sound recording. A low-cut filter is also provided to reduce wind noise, the hum of air conditioning, and other low-frequency vibration noise. Suppressing noise at the recording stage reduces workload during post processing, enhancing overall efficiency.
• Digital audio interface
  The digital audio interface offers an all-digital signal path from microphone to camera, avoiding the noise and distortion associated with analog transmission, and retaining the full benefit of the digital signal processing in the microphone.
• Compact size and light weight
  The impressively compact size and light weight give a high degree of shooting freedom and mobility. The microphone does not intrude when shooting selfies, or when using even a very wide-angle lens. The compact size also makes it easy to use with gimbals and grips.
• 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.
• Omnidirectional backup safety recording on channels 3 and 4
  On compatible cameras, while channels 1 and 2 record with the selected directivity pattern, channels 3 and 4 can make omnidirectional backup safety recordings at different sensitivities (- 20 dB for channel 4).
• Simple switch operation
  Comprehensive, clearly marked controls make it easy to adjust and confirm all microphone settings at a glance for worry-free operation.
• Easy camera connection
  Multi Interface (MI) shoe support allows battery- and cable-free shooting, allowing recording to start as soon as the microphone is attached to the MI shoe on compatible cameras.
• Dust and moisture resistant design
  The ECM-M1 features a dust and moisture resistant design that allows reliable operation in challenging outdoor conditions.
• Effective mechanical noise suppression
  The design dampens shock and vibration, for effective minimization of low-frequency vibration noise. The cable-less design also eliminates mechanical transmission of vibration noise to the microphone via cables.
