Sony ECM-VG1 Electret Condensor short shotgun microphone, super-cardioid

Professional Audio for Field and Studio Production

The Sony ECM-VG1 is a high-performance electret condenser shotgun microphone designed for professional videographers and sound engineers. Offering a perfect balance of performance and value, it is the ideal choice for field shooting with compact camcorders or mounting on boom poles.

Exceptional Sound Clarity

Equipped with a super-cardioid polar pattern, the ECM-VG1 provides highly directional sound pickup, ensuring your subject remains the focus. It delivers smooth, natural reproduction across a flat-and-wide frequency response (40 Hz to 20 kHz) with a high sensitivity of -33 dB and a low inherent noise level of less than 18 dB SPL.

Rugged yet Lightweight Construction

Built with a durable metal body, this microphone is engineered to withstand the rigors of outdoor production. Despite its robust build, it remains extremely lightweight, maintaining the balance of your camera rig even during long handheld sessions.

Advanced Noise Management

The ECM-VG1 features a built-in two-position low-cut filter (M, V), allowing users to instantly reduce unwanted ambient noise and low-frequency rumble. Additionally, the included innovative windscreen features an internal frame that creates a protective air gap, significantly suppressing wind noise in harsh environments.
