Sony ECM-778 Compact Supercardioid XLR Shotgun Microphone

Sony’s new ECM-778 XLR shotgun microphone delivers broadcast-quality audio with a high-resolution frequency response, capturing crisp highs and a stable low-mid range for balanced, natural sound. Its narrow supercardioid pickup ensures focused front capture with excellent off-axis rejection, while the compact (176 mm) and lightweight (102 g) design makes it ideal for tight boom setups or on-camera use. Built for professional field work, the rugged machined aluminum chassis reduces vibrations and blocks electrical interference, with included foam and fur windscreens for all-weather reliability. A convenient low-cut filter on the body helps tame wind and handling noise at the source, ensuring clear, clean recordings in any environment.
