    Thanks for doing the distance test! It drove me crazy that nobody else was testing that. I watched several videos on it but this is the only one to actually gave me the information I needed. Subbed!

    I purchased this mic also...but, I have to say your lavalier tie mic sounds much better than ECM-M1 to me, why? M1 is very expensive and usually it sounds worse than the mic used for the reviews.. Many thanks for the video :)

    Great recommendation for travelling. I'm still in the hope of upgrading to Sony Mirrorless and this would help if I go that route.

    It won’t solve all of your audio problems, but you will be hard pressed to find a better option when it comes to travel and quick rip recording! I’m glad I got my hands on one 💪🏼

    24bit 4 channel is a killer feature.

    That and the auto gain on here are reasons enough to get one!

    Multi-interface shoe came out around the time the a6000 was introduced in fall 2014. It has taken a long time to properly develop proprietary accessories for it but it was introduced because the NEX-7 was using a minolta (Sony-specific) hot shoe and people wanted the standard hot shoe. Then they added pins to it to make it more useful.

    Waiting to consider the ECM-M1. Most reviews nailed it so watching yours as well. Let's go. By the way.. is the Mic 30bit flow or 24? That's why we are called Sony!! We are in our own galaxy.

    The sound quality definitely won't blow you away, but with some processing you can get a lot out of it. And it's SO SMALL. Easy to take with you everywhere!

    Great vid, I wanted the rode one aswell but one con for me is that for vlogging it only picks up in front and not behind you. In my case I needed for vlogging

    I just took this little mic to Europe for 40+ days and was amazed at the quality! Used it in auto the entire time.

    Quality was on point, was the handling noise loud while moving and vlogging?
