  • Compact and Extremely Lightweight Design with Metal Body
  • Designed as an extremely lightweight shotgun microphone, the ECM-VG1 maintains good balance even when mounted on compact camcorders.
  • Built-in Low-cut Filter
  • The built-in two-position (M, V) low-cut switch provides a simple method of reducing the effects of unwanted ambient noise.
