With the Sony XLR-K1M Adapter Set and Shotgun Microphone, you can record audio at professional quality with cameras equipped with a multi-interface hotshoe, including the Sony A7 series, RX series and various video cameras. The set consists of an XLR adapter with independent configuration settings per channel for the recording level, muting and noise suppression. Both channels can switch between microphone or line input. You can mount the included ECM-XM1 shotgun microphone on the integrated microphone holder. ATTENTION! The Sony XLR-K1M Adapter Set is not made to be placed on the camera hotshoe, but for an offset position. For direct placement on the hotshoe, we recommend renting a Sony XLR-K2M Adapter Set.
