Affordable compact stereo microphone, ideal for mounting on professional compact camcorders.

Short and Compact

The compact 137-mm length of Sony’s ECM-MS2 prevents inadvertent vignetting of the microphone when it is attached to a handheld professional camcorder such as the PMW-100. Also, this short length is convenient when packing and transporting the microphone with a compact camcorder.

n Stereo and Mono Operation

The ECM-MS2 offers mono operation when stereo is not required, simply by cutting off the power supply to the right channel. This capability is useful when connecting, for example, a wireless microphone system on one channel while recording environmental sounds on the other channel. The microphone is therefore suited to applications such as news gathering and documentary shooting on location.

Professional Quality

Professional quality is assured by XLR3P outputs which enable connection to professional camcorders for 48-volt phantom powering. The microphone’s metal body also enhances audio performance by blocking vibration, resonance, and RF noises.

Unique Accessory

The supplied furry wind screen suppresses the strong wind noise typical of harsh-climate operating conditions. A cable tie is also supplied to fasten the unplugged microphone cable during mono operation.
