Introducing the latest addition to the beamforming microphone range and the world's first shotgun microphone with eight dial-selectable audio recording modes, Sony ECM-M1 Shotgun Microphone. Stunning digital shotgun audio, made versatile.
Sony completely redefines shotgun microphone performance with the ECM-M1's beamforming technology that provides the world's first1 eight dial-selectable audio recording modes in a compact microphone with outstanding versatility and audio quality.
Key Features of the Sony ECM-M1 Shotgun Microphone
Eight audio recording modes including stereo, for targeted sound pickup
Compact shotgun microphone with digital signal processing
Effective noise and rumble suppression for clear, high-quality recording
Cable- and battery-less Multi Interface (MI) Shoe with digital audio interface
Intuitive mode selection dial with lock for easy operation
Eight audio recording modes in one versatile microphone
Beamforming technology combines four discrete microphone capsules with precision algorithms, to maximise pickup sensitivity in the desired directions while reducing it in others. The result is an incredibly compact and versatile microphone with high performance even in challenging audio environments.
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 centre prevents accidental changes. Other controls are also straightforward and easy to understand and operate.
Outstanding audio quality
The latest digital audio technology delivers stunning audio performance.
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 clearest 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 analogue transmission, and retaining the full benefit of the digital signal processing in the microphone.
Compact size and light weight for versatility and portability
The impressively compact size and light weight of the microphone make it incredibly versatile for a range of shooting, and a trusty addition to any gear bag.
Compact size and light weight
The impressively compact size (length 64.4 mm3) and light weight (65 g3) 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.
Easy operability and connectivity
The ECM-M1 provides controls that are easy to operate, with simple connection to compatible cameras.
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 dB4 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 resistant6 design that allows reliable operation in challenging outdoor conditions.
