Sony Professional ECM-VG1, Shotgun Electret condenser microphone

Ideal for Field Shooting with Compact Camcorders or Boom Poles. The Sony Professional ECM-VG1 is uniquely designed for professional field and studio production applications at an affordable price. It is extremely lightweight and is supplied with an innovative windscreen that suppresses wind noise, making it a perfect choice for field sound shooting with a compact camcorder or attached to a boom pole.

Sony Professional ECM-VG1 Main Features

  • Outstanding Sound Quality: The ECM-VG1 delivers exceptionally smooth and natural sound reproduction. It has a flat-and-wide frequency response (40 Hz to 20 kHz), an excellent sensitivity of -33 dB (0 dB=1 V/Pa), and a low inherent noise level of less than 18 dB SPL.
  • Built-in Low-cut Filter: The built-in two-position (M, V) low-cut switch provides a simple method of reducing the effects of unwanted ambient noise.
  • Innovative Windscreen: The ECM-VG1 is supplied with an innovative windscreen that has an internal frame to rigidly fix the windscreen, creating a space between the microphone and the outside part of the windscreen that helps suppress strong wind noise. It also protects the ECM-VG1 from contact noise in harsh operational environments such as outdoor shooting.
  • Compact and Extremely Lightweight Design with Metal Body: Designed as an extremely lightweight shotgun microphone, the ECM-VG1 maintains good balance even when mounted on compact camcorders.
  • External DC (40 to 52 V) Operation: The ECM-VG1 provides an electronically balanced output operation on 48 V standard external power.
