Zoom ECM-3 Extension Cable with Action Camera Mount (9.8')

Remote Microphone Capsule Extension for Flexible Recording Setups

The Zoom ECM-3 is a 3-meter extension cable designed to give users greater freedom when positioning Zoom microphone capsules away from their recorder. It allows you to separate the microphone from the body of compatible Zoom recorders, making it easier to capture cleaner audio in video production, field recording, interviews, and mounted camera setups.

Designed for Zoom Capsule-Based Recorders

Built specifically for Zoom’s interchangeable microphone capsule system, the ECM-3 works seamlessly with recorders such as the H6, H5, F8, F4, and Q8. By relocating the microphone capsule while keeping the recorder secure and accessible, users can improve placement accuracy without adding complex third-party accessories or adapters.

Built-In Action Mount for Secure Placement

The ECM-3 features an integrated three-prong action camera mount, allowing the microphone capsule to attach directly to common mounting hardware. This makes it easy to place the mic on tripods, boom arms, helmet mounts, camera rigs, or other action-style supports commonly used in video and mobile recording environments.

Included Hot Shoe Adapter for Camera Rigs

For DSLR and mirrorless workflows, the included hot-shoe adapter allows the microphone capsule to mount directly on a camera body. This setup is ideal for run-and-gun shooting, documentary work, and handheld video production where precise mic placement improves dialogue clarity while keeping the recorder off the camera.

Improved Audio Positioning Without Extra Weight

By extending the microphone away from the recorder, the ECM-3 helps reduce handling noise and allows better isolation from camera movement or operator handling. This makes it especially useful for filmmakers, journalists, and content creators who want improved audio capture without adding bulk or complexity to their rigs.

Reliable Construction for Field and Studio Use

The ECM-3 is built to handle frequent setup changes and on-location work, providing a dependable connection between Zoom microphone capsules and recorders. Its length offers a practical balance between reach and portability, making it easy to integrate into both compact and expanded recording systems.
