Sony ECM-88BC (ECM_88BC, ECM/88BC, ECM 88BC) Miniature Omni-Directional Miniature Lavalier (tie-clip) Microphone

The Sony ECM 88BC is a miniature condenser, lavalier microphone with a 4-pin Hirose connection. The 4-pin connector enables use with Sony WRT-822B and WRT-8B bodypack transmitters. The capsule is 3.5 x 3.5 x 16.8mm, allowing natural-looking concealment on stage or camera. The electret condenser element uses a dual-diaphragm mechanism, resulting in high sensitivity.
