Sony Introduces ECM-HW2 Wireless Microphone At CES


dsc00161

Record from afar. Through Bluetooth wireless technology for secure recordings, the ECM-HW2 (successor to last year’s ECM-HW1) wireless microphone introduced at CES 2009 communicates from distances up to approximately 100 feet. It also features two-way communication, and you can shoot while still talking to a friend up to 100 meters from the camcorder. The microphone and receiver unit are even equipped with earphone jacks that correspond to “5.1ch Center Mic” mode. The ECM-HW2 Wireless Microphone is compatible with almost every camcorder with Active Interface Shoe. Microphone and receiver are equipped with separate earphone jacks, and two separate low-quality earphones are provided for both the microphone and the receiver units.

The ECM-HW2 is currently a pre-sale item available on or about 02/09/2009 for $229.99.

They also made a new mic design for the HW2, which is somewhat better looking than the HW1′s mic.

    Where or when will it be available in the UK.

    I am looking forward to this product as now I can do interviews at shows and events with my HDR-SR10E without worries about sound quality. Plus!!! It’s got a MIC jack, how awesome is that. Let me know if anybody finds it at a store in the UK where I can go grab one.

    I am using two Sony wireless ECM-HW2, to record a group of people. I'll have to place one of these on a microphone stand, but positioning it so the video guy can see the blue light will be difficult. I'd like to see Sony offer a hollow microphone housing unit to house the ECM-HW2 wireless for situations like mine.
