Sony ECM-L1 Omnidirectional Lavalier Microphone 3.5mm with Plugin Power
Lavalier microphone with pro sound quality and reliability
The ECM-L1 Lavalier microphone combines plug-in power compatibility with Sony's time-tested audio technology to deliver clear voice recording, with the excellent sound quality and reliability that professionals demand.
Ceramic back plate for high sound quality
The high rigidity and excellent damping properties of the ceramic back plate ensure superb acoustic properties as well as providing strong electrical stability for low-noise recording under a range of conditions.
Unobtrusive design
In addition to the compact size of the body, the logo on the clip is embossed instead of printed, resulting in a design that is elegant but unobtrusive when shooting. It is also ideal for business-oriented video recording.
Choose from two types of included wind screens
Two types of wind screens, a metal type and a fur type, are included and can reduce pop noise caused by breath and wind. The metal type can be used in situations where the presence of the microphone should be less noticeable, while the fur type can be used in situations where wind noise prevention is a priority.
Plug-in power provides wide connectivity
With a 3.5 mm mini plug providing plug-in power support, the ECM-L1 is designed for an extensive range of uses, including direct connection to mirrorless Alpha cameras or wireless microphone transmitters, letting you clearly capture the speaker's voice on your preferred device without visually obtrusive audio equipment.
Connects to a wide range of non-camera devices
Since it can be connected to a microphone input terminal that supports general plug-in power, this unit can be used with a wide range of devices including IC recorders and smartphones. Higher-quality sound can be recorded by capturing the voice closer to the mouth with this high-performance microphone than by using the device's built-in microphone.
Connector with locking ring
A locking ring prevents accidental disconnection and signal disturbance.
Machined brass exterior provides clear, crisp sound
The microphone capsule is enclosed in a machined brass exterior to suppress unwanted extraneous resonances and provide a clear, crisp sound.
Robust exterior housing
The microphone capsule is covered with the highly robust external brass housing that resists deformation and protects the microphone from damage even under the rigours of on-location use.
Shielded cable, resistant to breakage
The 2-core shielded cable suppresses extraneous noise, and its 2.2 mm diameter makes it resistant to breakage.
OFC cable for reduced transmission losses
The high-purity OFC (Oxygen-Free Copper) cable reduces transmission losses and protects the high sound quality of the recorded audio.
