Compact Shotgun Multi Interface shoe microphone for three switchable directivities with digital signal processing using beamforming technology. Digital signal processing using beamforming technology achieves super directivity, ideal for interviews and selfies, where the sound collection is focused on a narrow range in front of the camera. The ECM-B10's noise cut filter is very effective at reducing extraneous ambient noises through the use of digital signal processing algorithms, maximizing audio quality at the recording stage and reducing the need for complex post processing.
Features:
- Digital signal processing using beamforming technology
- Compact and portable at only 3.122” (79.3mm) in length
- Three selectable pickup patterns; Super/Uni/Omni-directional
- Highly efficient noise filters: Noise Cut and Low Cut
- MI (Multi-Interface) Shoe requires no batteries or cables
- Direct control with the Intuitive, easily visible rear panel
- Noise suppression contribute to high quality audio
- Supplied fur-type wind screen to reduce wind noise
- Designed to suppress vibration and mechanical noise
- Dust and moisture-resistant design
- Compact size and light weight ideal for use on gimbals
- Advanced beamforming technology
Compact and portable
Even at only 3.122” in length, the ECM-B10 offers impressive directional audio capture. Its small size gives you plenty of clearance for wide-angle lenses, viewfinder use, and great integrated audio even in gimbal and grip-mounted shots
Choice of three pickup patterns
Advanced digital signal processing makes it possible to offer three switchable directivity patterns in one versatile microphone, allowing you to select the area for audio pickup depending on the requirements of your shoot
Highly efficient noise filters
The ECM-B10’s noise cut filter is very effective at reducing extraneous ambient noises through the use of digital signal processing algorithms, maximizing audio quality at the recording stage and reducing the need for complex post processing
Cable-free connection
No cables are required for connection to a wide range of Sony cameras equipped with an MI Shoe, reducing interference, noise and complexity
Battery-free operation
Power is also supplied via the Multi Interface Shoe in compatible cameras, so you don't need to worry about microphone batteries running out of charge during a shoot
Intuitive, easily visible rear panel
Controls for audio level, pickup pattern, filters and other functions are within easy reach on the rear panel, visible at a glance for reassurance and quick adjustments during shooting
Digital audio transmission
When used in combination with a camera equipped with a Multi Interface (MI) Shoe that supports a digital audio interface, the ECM-B10 transmits audio directly as a digital signal, delivering high quality sound without degradation
Supplied wind screen
The ECM-B10 is supplied with an effective fur-type wind screen, easily detachable, that can reduce wind noise when shooting outdoors
Designed to minimize vibration noise
The ECM-B10 has been designed to efficiently suppress noises caused by shock and vibration, while the cable-free design eliminates the possibility of noise caused by cable movement
Dust and moisture-resistant design
Complementing similarly dust and moisture resistant camera bodies and lenses, the microphone is designed for worry-free outdoor shooting
