Purchased this for my A7 along with a Rode Video Compact Micro for my other DSLR. The stereo mic on this mic is definitely a noticeable difference between the two microphones, putting this one a step up. Also like the no-fuss connection for the multi-function shoe. . .

Picked this up to use on my A6000 for both sermon messages and wedding shoots. It it very well made and provided a much high and clearer audio quality over the onboard microphone of the camera. Highly recommend this microphone for anyone who is wanting a boost in the sound of their A6000

I recommend investing in the Sony ECM-XYST1M to use to replace the internal mic because of the improved quality of the audio and the directional pickup brings out the sound that is directly in front of you. You will appreciate this when you do interviews.

I bought the Sony ECM-XYST1M Stereo mic to pick up ambient sound while recording video on my Sony a6300. I've only used it in exterior locations with the wind sock attached and have been very pleased so far.

My camera is a Sony Alpha II, which is a very good mirrorless dslr, that takes movies as well. Of course the built in mic is minimal. I tried it out for real at a house concert, with serious audio equipment, and an audience of about 50.

Without it, my a6000 recorded the piano sound as if it the piano is being played somewhere in a huge, but you are not sure where.With the microphone, you can tell it is directly in front of you.Highly recommended for a6000.

I had one of these and used it for events but just ordered another because it's so good that my other mics don't compare and plus I want the sound to match between two cameras. This isn't the mic for every job, but for ambient sound recorded digitally, there's nothing better.

I found that the "hot shoe" on my Sony RX10 111 did not work, but neither does the inbuilt microphone, which is why I purchased this one. However the exterior microphone jack cable between the microphone and camera works perfectly, which was the other option, and would have been the case with any...

It is a good mike, but I haven't notice any significant improvement to built-in mike in Sony AX100 Handycam, at least indoors.

The mic sits a little awkward at first because it feels higher than it should be, but the sound quality is great. Very portable.
