Sony ECM-W2BT Microphone Sans Fil

These mics work perfectly with my Sony A7IV & FX30. The no need to use a 3.5mm wire is a great addition when using the digital interface. Sound quality is clear. Although volume can’t be adjusted in camera when using, only the options on the body of the microphone. My only negative is that the off button is in the middle of digital and analog, it would of been smart to have this at either side instead of the middle and sometimes can get turned on by accident. Interms of weight and value for money, you can’t go wrong with this piece of kit.

The audio quality might be considered good, if only it wasn't for the high level hiss that is constantly present. The hiss is very loud, to the point that I thought mine was faulty - but then I checked some other review on YT and discovered they all perform this way. The battery life is poor as well - expect 2-3 hours in constant use. The UI is very frustrating. On the RX they mixed the ON/OFF with the analogue/digital mode. And OFF is in the middle. This means it's very easy to push through the OFF when you're trying to power down. On/Off should have a dedicated switch. Finally, a minor thing - would be nice of the microphone clasp was also magnetic. Overall disappointed with the purchase and considering buying another mic to replace this one. This level of hiss in the audio is the deal breaker.

Bought this ad a package with the Sony ZV-1 as it came at a discount. Unable to link the hot shoe to my camera. Then told that I should use the cable and it only works in analogue mode. Still unable to get it to work with ZV-1. Such a shame

The mic arrived with melted marks on it. I thought « okay it’s second hand, as long as it works I don’t care ». My camera finally arrived and I filmed stuff and realised it wasn’t working. Worst thing is I have to pay for the return

It does actually work with ZV-1 cameras, you just need to do a specific set up. 1. Plug in reciever with camera off. 2. Turn on transmitter 3. Turn on camera, ignore compatibility error. 4. Set reciever to Analog and mix setting to Mic. It should work now!
