·Offering the professional performance of the ECM-77 in a more durable, compact, and plug-in powered form factor, the Sony ECM-L1 is an omnidirectional lavalier mic ideal for creators and pro video applications. The ECM-L1 delivers high-quality sound and durability thanks to a brass capsule, ceramic back plate, and thick OFC cable.The capsule of the ECM-L1, which borrows it's design from the ECM-77, offers clear, crisp sound with a quick response. With plug-in power, rather than external power, the ECM-L1 is compatible with a wide range of common recording devices, from camera systems like Sony's own α and FX series to portable recorders and smartphones. The common 3.5mm screw-lock plug provides further compatibility and reliability to avoid accidental pullouts. Highly compact and featuring a discreet black finish, the ECM-L1 is easy to hide on clothing during shoots.Superb Sound Inherited from ECM-77The ECM-L1 inherits the technology of the ECM-77 to achieve high sound quality and rugged dependability. The capsule is enclosed in a machined brass casing to suppress unwanted external resonance and provide clear, crisp sound. The ceramic backplate offers a quick response and high-resolution sound with low noise.High-Purity OFC CableThe oxygen-free copper (OFC) cable reduces signal transmission loss. By producing a very high-purity OFC cable, the ECM-L1 provides outstanding audio recording without sacrificing audio quality.Highly Reliable and DurableThe robust brass enclosure around the microphone capsule offers physical protection, resisting deformation and damage during use. The 2.2mm-thick OFC cable is resistant to bending and tensile stress while being difficult to disconnect, ensuring the ECM-L1 will stand up to the rigors of productions.Plug-In Power for FlexibilityUnlike the related ECM-77, the ECM-L1 offers plug-in power, allowing it to be compatible with many different recording devices. Sony α and FX-series cameras as well as any other cameras with 3.5mm inputs and plug-in power, will work perfectly. You can also use the ECM-L1 with many kinds of wireless receivers or bodybacks, field recorders, smartphones, and much more; as long as the device can provide plug-in power.Microphone Type LavalierIntended Sound Sources Vocals, SpeechSound Field MonoElement Type CondenserPolar Pattern OmnidirectionalFrequency Range 20 Hz to 20 kHzMaximum SPL 115 dB SPL (1% THD)
