Great video. I think the last time the outdoor audio test was done with the Sony mic w/Windmuff should've been the Rode Wireless Go without the Windmuff, right after the segment with that mic _with_ the Windmuff. Sorry if someone pointed that out before (I'm assuming that at least one of the 15K "viewers" actually wanted the video ;-).

It works with my Sony cam corder too! Ive got the AX43 :)

This is the most helpful video I have seen a long time! Thank you! I tried the Sennheiser MKE400 but for some reason it did not communicate with my ZVE10. So, I sent it back in exchange for this one. I just hope it likes my voice and sound! Thank you!

The mix mode echo was a very useful result to know about. Because interviews happen close enough often enough where that could be a legit issue.

muy bueno el video, es muy explicativo, ayuda mucho a entender el producto... felicitaciones y gracias por tu ayuda personalizada!!

Very helpful, thanks.

Loved this video and really helped. I am starting to do a lot more interviews at kickboxing shows. I was planning to get Sony A7C and this mic too. Found the video super useful. Thanks.

Really helpful video, answers basically every question I had about this mic. Thank you!

So if you have it on the mix setting you can tur the on off switch on the transmitter off when you get close so you don't have that doubled effect. It's good when the person filming you is talking too & you want that person heard as well.

please expand on situations where you have an older camera. mine’s a wx500.

My mic port went out on my A7C and your video came in clutch. Thank you 🙏🏿!!!!

Very good review!

Tried to use this mic for stereo recordings. Everything was mono. No stereo no matter the external mic or input.

Great video! Thank you for sharing!

Thank you Josh, excellent review.

Cool demo. I liked the sound of the Sony better as well. Probably going to pick this up.

Thank this was helpful 👏🏽

Thats funny I just recently watched a video about the rode wireless go2 . I have a sony A7III that until now i only used for photography. So this seems easier to work with than the rode especially when starting out. Thanks josh for the great video.

Thanks, this is such a great video. Could you make a video about detailed setting explanation for this wireless microphone? For example, there are digital, mix, mono, etc options, when to use on what cameras or in what situations? I just got my Sony a7iv, going to buy this microphone, I think I just put it on digital?

The best mic for all mirrorpess

well done bro. thx a lot.

Loved the video. I am not 100% sure if this is accurate as to why the Sony has a higher noise floor but I have the Sony UWP-D26 Camera-Mount Wireless kit and I purchased the Sony SMAD connector so I can use it wirelessly with the multi interface shoe. Some other users have noticed too that specifically on the A7siii and alpha series bodies that using these wirelessly with the multi interface shoe somehow creates a little higher noise floor and that’s not the case when you plug it into the mic jack. However, the results are different when using an FX6 or FX9 but I myself don’t have those to test.

Hey SONY, can you replace the batteries in your wireless microphones, when they're dead?

Hi Josh, thank you very much for this comparison. The ECM sounds very good. I use it with the ZV1 and it sounds a lot of hiss, did you have the same issue, I hear your audio clean, is there any way to mitigate the hiss in the recording?

hahahah - i have one of these ordered.. and i'm seeing different results in different reviews so i'm very interested in how my results turn out.

There's a reason we haven't heard from it. The audio quality is not good! Most importantly, simple design features like having the on-camera receiver turn on and off automatically when the camera is turned on and off or goes to sleep is a serious omission. You still have to pay attention to the receiver separately from the camera, that completely makes the hotshoe benefits limited. I can't believe Sony designers and engineers are so shortsighted!

Hi! I own a Sony A6000. It doesn't have a 3.5mm jack input but does have the hotshoe multi interface. I Just bought a Rode VideoMic Pro+ and it doesn't connect because of no 3.5mm jack on the camera. This thing looks great and I'm curious if it's double the fun for me because it seems I can also plug in my shotgun Rode mic in that receiver?? Am I wrong or is that correct?

does the zv-1 require a cable to work along with being battery powered and set to analog mode?

is it compatible with sony a6000?

Thanks for this content, can you please confirm me that the hot shoe is not working on a a6600? thanks Josh, Max

Thank you, Josh! This was a great mic review. You just totally sold me the Sony wireless microphone. Just a question: Any idea how good is the Sony’s shotgun mic which I can attach to my FX3 camera?

my fx3 is my fav.

Brother. Wil it work for sony a6400?

Very nice and useful video. Thanks your very much. Like and Suscribe.

Hey Josh , Nice vid. Is it compatible with go pro ?

Can you connect 2-4 mics to this receiver on the Sony ZV-E10 Josh?

hi bro, would you be able to tell me if this microphone is compatible with my Sony 4K FDR-AX43 videocam? many thanks!!!

Hey videographer here. If your going to get the rode wireless 2, DONT. I’ve been through 2 pairs already and each one ends up scratching bad. I can’t find a reason yet. For sure getting the Sony ones

White noise is literally all over the place with Sony mics. I tried a few of them, and it's always about the sound quality. I love the setup with no cables, but their quality is complete crap. This is why probably nobody heard about them, not just the name.

Rode sounds better

Sony wins again!

Excellent review!!
