Sony ECM-VG1 Shotgun Microphone

The Sony ECM-VG1 is a compact, ultralightweight shotgun microphone designed for professional field and studio production. Weighing just 2.3 ounces with a durable metal body, it maintains excellent balance when mounted on compact camcorders or boom poles. The microphone delivers smooth, natural sound reproduction with a flat and wide frequency response of 40 Hz to 20 kHz, high sensitivity of -33 dB, and low self-noise of less than 18 dB SPL. Equipped with phantom power operation (40 to 52 VDC), a supercardioid polar pattern for excellent directivity, and a supplied furry windshield providing up to 20 dB of wind noise reduction, the ECM-VG1 excels in challenging recording environments. A built-in two-position low-cut switch helps reduce unwanted ambient noise, making it ideal for event video, indie film production, documentary work, and professional video capture.
