Product information

General

When ambient noise has to be optimally reduced, a shotgun microphone is usually the best solution. Do you want to record high-quality audio from a considerable distance? The Sony ECM-VG1 is the way to go. This Sony shotgun condenser microphone is ideal as an overhead, or to mount on a camera.

Well thought-through technology of the ECM-VG1

The ECM-VG1 has a super-cardioid, or uni-directional pickup pattern. As such, it records all sound coming from the front, largely ignoring input from the sides and the back. That way, speakers are clearly intelligible, even in a noisy environment. The Sony shotgun microphone is supplied with an accessory windscreen, which makes it ideal for outdoor applications. The windscreen reduces wind noise to a minimum, without affecting the audio quality of your recordings. As the ECM-VG1 is a condenser microphone, it requires +48V phantom power to function properly.

A microphone with plenty of included accessories

The Sony ECMVG1 is supplied with a number of practical accessories, ensuring you're well equipped to start recording right away. In addition to the windscreen mentioned above, a mic holder, a stand adapter and a mic spacer are also included. That way, you can easily mount the shotgun microphone on a boom pole, efficiently aim it, or even mount it on a camera.

Sony ECM-VG1 condenser shotgun microphone

Destiné au caméscope HXR-NX80 de Sony. J'avais fait plusieurs essais avec d'autres marques et ce n'était pas probant. Celui-ci correspond parfaitement à ce que je cherchais, tant par la taille, le type de modèle que par le résultat obtenu. Une bague en caoutchouc jointe au pack sert à stabiliser le micro sur la poignée XLR. Nécessaire et absente avec d'autres marques. Conforme aux informations techniques fournies.
