Sony is expanding its microphone offerings with the launch of the ECM-W3, ECM-W3S, and ECM-S1 wireless microphones. These cutting-edge mics combine exceptional sound capture with lightweight designs, empowering content creators to achieve top-notch audio recording in various shooting scenarios.

The ECM-W3 features a two-channel receiver and two microphones, while the ECM-W3S has a one-channel receiver and one microphone. These microphones are perfect for video content creators working in diverse settings like vlogs and interviews, ensuring high-quality voice recording even when the subject is away from the camera.

The ECM-W3 excels in interviews and one-on-one conversations, while the ECM-W3S shines in capturing clear and articulate user voices for vloggers and content creators seeking natural, organic sound. These microphones minimize noise interference, providing exceptional sound pickup. They are compatible with Sony cameras via the Multi-Interface (MI) Shoe, USB Type-C® terminal, and 3.5mm audio output, allowing connections to various devices like cameras, smartphones, and PCs. Additionally, they come with a convenient charging case for hassle-free portability.

Key Features of the “ECM-W3” and “ECM-W3S” Wireless Microphones:

1. High-quality sound pickup with reduced noise: These microphones incorporate digital signal processing to effectively reduce harsh noise and unwanted low-frequency noise like wind, air conditioning, and vibrations. They also include a windscreen to minimize ambient noise during recording, reducing the need for post-production noise removal.

2. Versatile Connectivity: MI Shoe compatibility enables battery-free and cable-free shooting, and a USB Type-C® terminal allows digital audio output. A 3.5mm mini jack (stereo) audio output ensures compatibility with a wide range of devices, including cameras, PCs, and IC recorders. The microphones also feature a 3.5mm mini jack (monaural) for external microphone input and can be used continuously for up to 6 hours on a full charge.

3. Compact and Lightweight Design: Both the microphones and receivers are compact and lightweight, making them suitable for outdoor use. They are dustproof and moisture-proof, with a portable charging case included for on-the-go charging.

For professional videographers and content creators requiring top-tier audio quality for shoots, livestreams, and podcasts, the ECM-S1 microphone is the ultimate tool. This microphone boasts a compact, lightweight body and three 14mm large-diameter capsules tuned to capture human voices naturally and with high-quality sound. It seamlessly connects to cameras, computers, and smartphones, eliminating “sound and video lag” during live streaming. Sony’s ECM-W3, ECM-W3S, and ECM-S1 microphones embody the brand’s commitment to innovation and excellence, pushing the boundaries of audio technology.

Key Features of the Wireless/Streaming Microphone “ECM-S1”:

1. High-quality sound pickup performance: The ECM-S1 features three large-diameter (14mm) capsules and supports three sound pickup modes (Uni-directional, Omni-directional, and Stereo). It captures high-quality sound with high sensitivity and wide frequency characteristics. The microphone also includes noise cut and low-cut filters for enhanced sound quality.

2. Versatile Connectivity: The microphone connects seamlessly to compatible cameras via MI Shoe, supports 48kHz/24bit digital audio output through USB Type-C® terminals, and includes a 3.5mm mini jack (stereo) audio output. Bluetooth 5.3 and LC3plus codec ensure low power consumption, low latency, and high sound quality.

3. High Operability: The microphone features an independent sound recording level dial, audio input level adjustment, and indicator lamps for real-time monitoring. It has built-in batteries for extended use and supports direct power supply. A pop guard and adjustable stand are included for optimal recording conditions.
