Simple controls for easy setting and operation
Simply turning a dial on the rear of the microphone allows easy, intuitive selection of pickup patterns, and a lock button in the center prevents accidental changes. Other controls are also straightforward and easy to understand and operate.
Digital signal processing for quality audio
The ECM-M1 features a complete digital pathway, from beamforming control, to noise filtering and interfacing with the camera. The result is the clearest sound possible, for everything you capture.
Digital noise cut filter for clear sound
Continuous background noise is effectively suppressed by a digital noise-cut filter for clear sound recording. A low-cut filter is also provided to reduce wind noise, the hum of air conditioning, and other low-frequency vibration noise. Suppressing noise at the recording stage reduces workload during post processing, enhancing overall efficiency.
Compact size and light weight
The impressively compact size (length 2-1/2 in. - 64.4 mm3) and light weight (2.3 oz. - 65 g) give a high degree of shooting freedom and mobility. The microphone does not intrude when shooting selfies, or when using even a very wide-angle lens. The compact size also makes it easy to use with gimbals and grips.
Supplied wind screen
The ECM-M1 is supplied with an effective fur-type wind screen, easily detachable, that can reduce wind noise when shooting outdoors.
