About the Sony ECM-SST1

Dave Bar
Improve the sound of the movies you shoot with your Sony NEX series camera. Sony's ECM-SST1 stereo microphone lets you record clearer, more detailed sound than you'd get with your cam's built-in mic, for crisp audio to match the detailed HD video. This microphone easily mounts to your NEX camera's accessory terminal and draws power from the camera itself, so you won't need to use any batteries.

A top-mounted switch on the microphone lets you select a wider or narrower field of sound to match shooting conditions. Choose 90° if your subject is relatively close and narrowly focused (like a person or two); choose 120° when recording a wider or more distant subject such as a sporting event, play, etc. The included wind screen helps reduce unwanted noise when shooting outdoors.

Q
Is this microphone compatible with the Sony a3000?

I forwarded your question to an Advisor and they responded with the following: I have to say no. Sony only lists the ECM-GZ1M, ECM-W1M, and the ECM-XYST1M (none of which we are carrying currently) as working the A3000. If you would like to discuss further you can contact an Advisor directly by phone (1-800-324-9695) or online chat.
