Introducing the Sony ECM-VG1Microphone
The Sony ECM-VG1 is an electret condenser microphonedesigned for professional applications in both field and studio settings. Its lightweight design and robust metal construction make it ideal for shooting on location. This shotgun microphone offers highly accurate sound capture while remaining affordable.
Exceptional sound quality
The Sony ECM-VG1 stands out for its smooth and natural sound reproduction thanks to its extended frequency response of 40 Hz to 20 kHz. With a sensitivity of -33 dB and a very low noise level of less than 18 dB SPL, it is capable of capturing sonic detail even in noisy environments. It can handle sound pressure levels up to 125 dB SPL, making it ideal for intensely noisy environments.
Compact and ultra-lightweight design
The ECM-VG1 is a very lightweight microphone, weighing only 66 grams, ideal for mounting on compact camcorders or boom poles. Its metal construction ensures durability and resistance to harsh field conditions.
Integrated low-cut filter
The two-position low-cut switch effectively reduces unwanted noise such as background noise or vibrations. This makes it ideal for outdoor shooting or in complex sound environments.
External power supply via phantom power (48V)
The microphone operates with a standard external 40-52V, making it compatible with many professional recorders and camcorders.
Innovative windproof bonnet
The ECM-VG1 comes with a furry windscreen that significantly reduces wind noise (up to 20 dB), while minimizing contact noise in challenging environments such as outdoor shoots.
