Coming with the microphone are a shoe attachment and extension arm, making it ready to plug-and-record. The one-point stereo design matches many stereo camcorder formats, although it is essential you check for compatibility. This one-point stereo design microphone delivers stereo sound with a single mic. A key feature of this microphone are the mid/side (MS) capsules. The mid capsule picks up monophonic sound while the side capsule picks up left/right difference sound. By subtracting and adding the two capsule signals you can achieve left and right channels, thus stereo sound. The MS capsules also allow you to vary the pick-up from the left and right channels according to camera zoom, weather and setting, and the shooting situation. Choose 90 degrees for close-ups and noisy recording situations and choose 120 degrees for wide shots and quiet environments. With these sort of options, you are sure to capture superb sound quality. The included oxygen-free copper (OFC) Litz cord provides minimum loss and minimum noise disruption. The gold-plated plug gives the mic maximum conductivity and, like the Litz cord, minimum noise disruption. To further enhance your audio recordings, Sony has also included a windscreen. This video microphone is for advanced amateur use. The stereo sound takes advantage of the two-channel sound tracks on many of today's top video recorders: DV, Digital8, Hi8, 8mm, VHS, S-VHS and VHS-C formats. Make sure you check your camcorder for proper compatibility What's in the Box Sony ECM-MS908C microphone, Litz cord, mini-plug, windscreen, microphone holder with camera shoe, pouch and user's manual. |
