The Sony ECM-680S is an MS stereo shotgun, electret condenser-type microphone, ideal for a broad range of field production and broadcast studio applications. Incorporating special microphone capsules, the ECM-680S offers excellent sensitivity, low inherent noise, and a flat-and-wide frequency response.

The most distinguished feature of the ECM-680S is its switchable operation between a highly directional monaural mode and stereo mode. Monaural mode provides highly directional sound pickup,while stereo mode delivers natural and spatial sound. The ECM-680S is compact and lightweight,making it well-suited to use with a range of Sony professional camcorders. In addition, it can be mounted on a boom pole for more versatility.
