special moments right at the source with this Bluetooth® wireless microphone. Not only can you record crisp, clear sound up to 300 feet away, but you can also enjoy two way communications between you and your subject. This unique feature enables you to give your subject direction while capturing only their voice, or you can chose to capture both their voice and yours while filming.

The Wireless Microphone ECM-W1M (referred to below as “this unit”) is compatible with a camera that has a Multi Interface Shoe such as a Sony Video Camera or Interchangeable Lens Digital Camera (referred to below as “camera”).

Refer to the instruction manual of your camera and check that it is compatible with the Multi Interface Shoe.

Even if your camera has a Multi Interface Shoe, you may be unable to use it with this unit or some functions may not work. Please visit the Sony website for more information.

This unit can clearly pick up sound from a subject far from the camera.

When used with a camera compatible with 5.1ch recording, this unit will provide center channel sound, delivering clear, natural sound.

This unit uses Bluetooth wireless communication technology.

The receiver installed on the camera and the microphone for the subject (transmitter, referred to below as “microphone”) are each provided with a microphone and earphone jack. The person recording the scene with the camera can communicate with the subject even if they are far apart, and that sound can be recorded.

The following modes are available. Select one of them by switching the Power/Mode switch on the receiver, and then start recording.

• SINGLE mode
  Only the sound picked up by the microphone is recorded.
  The microphone picks up monaurally both the subject and surrounding sound equally clearly, even when the camera is far from the microphone.
• 5.1ch MIX mode
  When used with a camera compatible with 5.1ch recording, this unit works as the center microphone of 5.1ch recording. The natural sound around both of the microphone and camera can be recorded by 5.1ch recording with this unit.
• MONO MIX mode
  The sound picked up by both the microphone and camera is recorded monaurally. (If the receiver and the microphone pick up the same sound, an echo or clipping noise may occur. When using a camera that supports 5.1ch recording, we recommend that you use this unit in 5.1ch MIX mode.)

In any of the three modes, you can hear the sound around the receiver on the microphone side and around the microphone on the receiver side, by connecting the earphones while connected for communication. The person recording the scene with the camera can therefore communicate with the subject holding the microphone even when they are far apart.
