Amazon.com Product Decription
Designed specifically for recording meetings, the ECMF8 from Sony is an inexpensive electret condenser microphone with a high-quality output and a small, inconspicuous design. As a tabletop omni-directional microphone, the ECMF8 picks up sound from all directions, ensuring that speech is easily discernable, even in multiple sound source environments. As a boundary microphone, the ECMF8 is able to offer a flatter frequency response than many other microphones by reducing frequency distorting reflections, providing a low-noise signal even when the microphone is at a distance from the sound source. A frequency response of 50 to 12,000 Hz captures the most important speech frequencies, while a -51 (+/-4 dBm) effective output level delivers a strong signal to the recording device. Output impedence is 1.6 kohms (+/- 30%, unbalanced). The ECMF8 operates on Sony's CR2025 lithium battery, which has a life of approximately 100 hours. The mini plug connects directly to most portable recorders, while its L-shape helps ensure that it doesn't come disconnected during use. Small and unobtrusive, the ECMF8 weighs just 0.88 ounces (including battery and cord) while its 3.3 foot long cord lets you position the mic a reasonable distance from your recording device. The ECMF8 also comes backed with a 90 day limited warranty on parts and labor.

 Don't Buy!! March 4, 2008
I picked this small mic to use with collaboration tools at my desk...and since it was Sony figured it would be a great product. WRONG!! Unless you hold the mic almost against your mouth, it won't pick up your audio. I tried adjusting my mic levels and nothing seemed to work. I ended up at Radio Shack to buy a lapel mic that actually works!! This is buy far the WORST Sony product I have ever used.
BAD QUALITY March 3, 2008
I am a musician, I bought one, it is so bad , the sound is so small, it is not sensitive, I cannot use it. just throw away. Do not waste your money even it is 1 dollar.

Cheap construction January 1, 2008
This product was not what I expected it to be. It was so light weight, it never would have stayed in one spot for very long. I threw it in the garbage.
 Great Little Microphone November 19, 2007
I purchased this to use with my Sony Cassette Recorder. It greatly enhanced the recording. You do need to purchase the battery separately.
 Excellent Mic for the Price May 31, 2007

This is a really good quality mic, especially for the price. The only objection is the on/off switch. It is a major nuisance.
