question

Is this microphone compatible with a Sony a7 camera?
Asked by: Anonymous
I would think it would not work. It requires phantom power (see specs).

Is there any meaningful difference between this microphone and the ECM-VG1 besides the size?
Asked by: Girard
Yes, the Sony ECM-673 Short Shotgun Microphone has a higher level of sensitivity and slightly lower self-noise level than the Sony ECM-VG1 Short Shotgun Microphone. While the ECM-VG1 is longer in length at 8.3", it is also much lighter, weighing just 2.3 oz, compared to the ECM-673 which is 7.9" long and weighs 4.8 oz. Additionally, the ECM-673 is also built with a vibration-resistant mechanism and comes with a foam windscreen. The ECM-VG1 comes with a furry windshield.

question

Does it come with a short xlr cable for camcorder use? I does not seem so, since nothing is said about it in in the box section. But I have seen in other stores - including Sony - that it comes with it. Thanks for your help!

This mic does come with a short XLR cable for on camera use, a mount for mic stands, a round spacer and a sheet spacer
