HONOR is setting a new benchmark in smartphone imaging with the upcoming launch of its HONOR 400 Series in Malaysia on 22 May 2025. Even before its official debut, the buzz surrounding the series has been palpable, particularly due to its revolutionary AI-powered photo and video capabilities. Central to the excitement is HONOR’s newly introduced AI Image to Video feature, developed in collaboration with Google Cloud AI, which allows users to effortlessly convert still images into engaging short videos.
This innovation represents a major leap forward in how users can relive and repurpose their photos. Whether it’s old family pictures, scenic shots, digital artwork, or comic strips, this tool can bring them to life as animated five-second videos—no third-party apps needed. Designed to make creativity seamless and accessible, it empowers users to transform personal memories into dynamic visual stories that can be easily shared across social platforms.
Supporting this is a flagship-level camera system tailored for both casual and professional mobile photography. The HONOR 400 Series features a powerful 200MP main camera with a 1/1.4-inch super sensor, significantly upgraded from the previous generation. The imaging setup is further enhanced with OIS and EIS, ensuring sharp, stable shots even in low light. While both models include a 12MP wide and macro camera, only the HONOR 400 Pro is equipped with a 50MP AI telephoto lens capable of up to 50x digital zoom. Selfie lovers can also look forward to a 50MP Portrait Selfie Camera, delivering studio-like results straight from the phone.
Beyond the hardware, what truly distinguishes the HONOR 400 Series is its suite of Next-Gen AI Imaging tools. The AI Eraser 2.0 refines photos by removing unwanted people, glare, or background clutter with incredible accuracy. AI Cutout gives users creative control to extract and reposition subjects with background editing options like solid colors, transparency, or new settings. Meanwhile, AI Outpainting intelligently extends photo edges, making it perfect for scenic shots and social media banners.
Another notable tool is AI Upscale, which breathes new life into low-resolution or blurry images by enhancing details with a single tap. For dynamic storytelling, users can create animated montages using the Moving Photo Collage feature, combining several Live Photos into lively clips complete with sound, filters, and timing options.
Rounding out the package is Harcourt Studio 2.0, which replicates cinematic portrait effects. With intelligent depth simulation and artistic filters such as Harcourt Classic and Harcourt Colour, this tool brings a professional polish to every shot.
To highlight the emotional impact of AI Image to Video, HONOR recently released two heartfelt Mother’s Day tributes. One video showed a woman reviving a childhood photo of her late mother, who passed away in a house fire. The animation brought her mother’s smile and expressions back to life, creating an unforgettable digital memory. In another story, a grieving girl found comfort when her father animated an old photo of her and her grandmother, once again making her presence felt through a moving image.
These real-life stories exemplify how the HONOR 400 Series isn’t just about cutting-edge technology—it’s about transforming how we connect with our memories.
The official launch will be livestreamed on 22 May 2025 at 3PM via HONOR Malaysia’s Facebook page. For more information, visit www.honor.com/my.

A strategic partnership between the National Institute of Public Administration (INTAN) and Huawei Technologies (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd aims to accelerate digital transformation in Malaysia’s public sector. This collaboration comes in response to the increasing demand for more efficient, citizen-centric services and the need for public sector professionals to adapt to an ever-evolving digital landscape.
The partnership will focus on enhancing digital leadership across government agencies by equipping civil servants with the skills necessary to excel in the modern digital environment. The collaboration offers a platform for knowledge exchange, benefiting both Huawei Malaysia and INTAN. Huawei will gain valuable insights through the participation of government officers in initiatives like the Seeds for the Future programme, which aims to foster young talent in the ICT sector. Additionally, government officers will be involved in the selection process for participants in Huawei’s flagship programme, further integrating the public sector into digital innovation.
Key components of the partnership include the Digital Leadership Excellence (DLE) Programme, the Seeds for the Future initiative, and the Huawei ICT Academy. These platforms are designed to foster collaboration between public sector leaders and industry experts, driving the adoption of cutting-edge technologies that will enhance the operational efficiency of government services and improve overall service delivery to citizens.
The collaboration was formalized through a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) that outlines the shared objectives of the two organizations. INTAN, as Malaysia’s leading training institute for public sector employees, is committed to providing its trainees with the knowledge and tools needed to solve modern challenges and promote national development. By working with Huawei, INTAN reinforces its commitment to embracing digital technologies, supporting the public sector’s transformation, and ensuring that Malaysia’s civil servants are ready for the future.
Huawei’s contribution will include its expertise in digital technologies, talent program management, content development, and strategic advisory services on digital transformation. In return, INTAN will leverage its extensive training resources, policy leadership, and logistical support to ensure the partnership thrives. This synergy aims to create a more digitally capable and innovative public sector.
The collaboration also aims to inspire innovation through initiatives such as the Huawei ICT Competition and Seeds for the Future, encouraging civil servants to engage in cutting-edge projects and solutions. Huawei will provide technological support, mentorship, and evaluation resources, while INTAN will help facilitate participation and guide civil servants in connecting with senior government leaders to amplify the outcomes of the initiative.
This strategic partnership aligns with Malaysia’s broader ambition to become a high-tech economy by 2030. A digitally skilled public sector is essential to achieving this vision, bridging the digital divide, improving government transparency, and fostering sustainable economic growth. The collaboration is expected to bring about significant changes in the way public services are delivered, with an emphasis on innovation, accessibility, and responsiveness to citizens’ needs.
With the MoU now in place, this partnership marks the beginning of a new era in Malaysia’s public sector, empowering civil servants with the tools and knowledge to lead with data-driven insights and deliver services that are more efficient, transparent, and aligned with the needs of the people.

Komitmen Perak dalam memacu pembangunan lestari terus diperkukuh menerusi kerjasama antara Casuarina Meru Sdn. Bhd. (CMSB) dan Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB) untuk penyediaan kemudahan pengecas kenderaan elektrik (EV) di Hotel Casuarina@Meru. Inisiatif ini merupakan sebahagian daripada usaha menyokong aspirasi negeri ke arah pelancongan hijau dan pembangunan berasaskan mobiliti rendah karbon seperti yang digariskan dalam Perak Sejahtera 2030.
Kerjasama strategik tersebut dimeterai secara rasmi dalam satu majlis pertukaran dokumen di Casuarina Convention Centre, yang disempurnakan oleh YAB Dato’ Seri Saarani bin Mohamad, Menteri Besar Perak. Turut hadir menyaksikan majlis tersebut ialah barisan kepimpinan kerajaan negeri dan wakil syarikat terlibat, termasuk Pengerusi Jawatankuasa Sains, Alam Sekitar dan Teknologi Hijau Negeri Perak, Presiden dan Ketua Pegawai Eksekutif TNB, serta wakil eksekutif daripada PKNPk, Perak Corporation Berhad, dan Hotel Casuarina@Meru.
Di bawah perjanjian ini, TNB akan memasang satu pengecas pantas DC 120kW dengan muncung berkembar (CCS2) dan dua pengecas AC 22kW, lengkap dengan tempat letak kereta khas EV, sistem pembayaran digital serta akses 24 jam. Fasiliti ini akan menjadi antara yang paling canggih dan terpantas dalam kalangan hotel di Ipoh, sekaligus meningkatkan nilai pengalaman penginapan serta imej kelestarian hotel.
Menurut Menteri Besar Perak, usaha ini mencerminkan kesungguhan negeri dalam membina ekonomi hijau berteraskan inovasi dan teknologi tenaga bersih. Tambah beliau, penglibatan aktif pemain industri seperti TNB dan Casuarina Meru membuktikan bahawa sinergi sektor awam-swasta mampu menghasilkan impak nyata terhadap kelestarian alam dan pertumbuhan ekonomi negeri.
Setakat ini, Perak telah membangunkan 149 petak pengecas EV di 56 lokasi strategik seluruh negeri, iaitu 30% daripada sasaran 500 pengecas menjelang 2025. Dengan adanya kemudahan baharu di Casuarina@Meru, pencapaian tersebut dijangka terus meningkat. Dato’ Mohd Azhar Jamaluddin, Pengerusi Casuarina Meru Sdn. Bhd., menekankan bahawa usaha ini bukan sahaja memperkukuh imej hotel sebagai destinasi hijau, malah menunjukkan komitmen serius terhadap pemeliharaan alam sekitar.
Majlis turut menyaksikan demonstrasi pengecasan menggunakan Proton e.MAS, kenderaan elektrik nasional, sebagai simbol kepada kemajuan teknologi tempatan dan kebolehlaksanaan pelaksanaan infrastruktur EV secara meluas. Kemudahan pengecas ini dijangka siap sepenuhnya pada suku ketiga 2025 dan akan beroperasi di bawah jenama Elektron milik TNB — sejajar dengan sasaran negara untuk mencapai 10,000 pengecas EV menjelang akhir 2025.
Sebagai tambahan kepada pemasangan pengecas, langkah proaktif turut diambil oleh PKNPk dengan pemasangan panel solar di bumbung Casuarina Convention Centre dan kawasan parkir hotel. Lampu jalan berkuasa solar di Bulatan Sultan Azlan Shah turut dibina sebagai usaha mengurangkan penggunaan tenaga grid dan meningkatkan keselamatan awam.
Dengan bimbingan strategik PKNPk serta pelaksanaan berkesan oleh Perak Corporation Berhad dalam sektor pelabuhan, hartanah, pelancongan dan perkhidmatan, Perak semakin hampir untuk menjadi negeri pelaburan yang berteraskan kelestarian. Inisiatif ini mencerminkan cita-cita besar kerajaan dan sektor korporat untuk membina masa depan negeri yang hijau, berdaya saing dan inklusif.

With two categories available, the CCC’s Adobe Certified Professional (ACP) Malaysia National Championship 2024 & Microsoft Office Specialist (MOS) Malaysia National Championship 2024, Creative Cloud Community and Acestar proudly launched the 9th Annual Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Event – Malaysia National Championship 2024. Today’s event at Nexus @ CCEC, Bangsar South, presided over by Dato’ Kamil Othman, Chairman of the National Film Development Corporation (FINAS), and it has the potential to spark a new chapter in the history of creativity and education, talent development, and social consciousness in the nation.
Open to youths aged 13 to 22 years old in both categories through official registration by educational institutions at the secondary and tertiary levels, the CCC’s Adobe Certified Professional Malaysia National Championship category, currently in its 9th series, tests the participants’ skills in creating creative content using Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, and Adobe InDesign based on themes set by the organizer in collaboration with NGO Program Strategic Partners in February 2024. They will go through four qualifying stages to reach the CCC’s Adobe Certified Professional Malaysia National Championship 2024 Grand Finale where the Grand Champion will be chosen. The Grand Champion of this category will be exclusively sponsored by Acestar to represent the country in the Certiport’s Adobe Certified Professional World Championship 2024.
Meanwhile, the Microsoft Office Specialist Malaysia National Championship 2024, the fourth time it is held in Malaysia, will assess participants’ abilities in using Microsoft Office Word, PowerPoint, and Excel, with each software having its own criteria and evaluation. Participants will undergo three qualifying stages before the Grand Finale, where the winners will be announced.
Adjunct Professor Natalie Sit, Group CEO of Acestar and Founder of the Creative Cloud Community, unveiled an ambitious vision during the event – to upskill 10% of Malaysia’s population through Micro-Credentials Certifications Program. This groundbreaking initiative marks a pivotal step towards nurturing a skilled workforce and fortifying the growth of a certified talent pool in Malaysia.
“I’ve set an ambitious mission—to elevate this passion project to a national project, to certify and upskill 3 millions youth. I know it may seem impossible to achieve, but consider this: if we can upskill 10% of our population, there’s hope for the future. We are preparing our youth to take over the world in the next 10 years.” explained Sit in her opening address.
Meanwhile, Kamil expressed his hope in his officiating remark, “(Our GDP) figures are projected to continue rising in the next 10 or 20 years if young digital talents are continuously encouraged and supported by educational institutions, whether secondary or tertiary, to participate in talent development opportunities like these (the championship).”
Keynote speeches by representatives from Department of Education Resources and Technology from Ministry of Education Malaysia, Malaysian Digital Economy Corporation (MDEC), Human Resource Development Corporation (HRD Corp), Adobe and Microsoft (Malaysia) illuminated diverse perspectives on youth empowerment in the digital age, the profound influence on digital economics, human resources, and the transformative impact of micro-credentials certifications in higher education. These compelling discussions fostered dialogues that are intended to spur innovation in the educational sector, fostering an environment ripe for change.
Moreover, engaging panel sessions featured insights from 2023 champions and representative from higher educational institutions such as Universiti Kuala Lumpur (UniKL), Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia (UTHM) Campus Pagoh and KLMUC, delving into the exceptional achievements attained through Micro-Credentials, offering valuable perspectives from the champions’ past experiences in the competition as well as in representing Malaysia on the world stage. Additionally, the panelists from educational institutions will unveil and articulate the best practices of the micro-credentials program at the national level. This initiative goes beyond simply upskilling talents; it aims to empower digital skills, enhancing international marketability.
Furthermore, the event paved the way for Malaysian youth talents to embark on an international journey in showcasing their digital creative talents. As a prelude to this global endeavor, the competition will see the top three winners in each category participate in the Certiport’s Adobe Certified Professional World Championship 2024 and Microsoft Office Specialist World Championship 2024 in Anaheim, California, United States of America (USA), expected to be held on July 28-31, 2024.
Having seen participations from over 6,000 youths since 2016, the 9th Annual Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Event, Malaysia National Championship 2024, stands as a testament to the dedication and commitment of Acestar and the Creative Cloud Community, as well as the digital creative and digital economy stakeholders, spearheaded by FINAS and MDEC respectively, to foster a conducive environment for digital creative talent development, social advocacy, and educational transformation. Educational institutions are encouraged to enroll and get their students to register for the championship before it kicks off in February 2024.
To date, Malaysian youths have brought honor to the country by clinching the World Champion title in 2021, World Runner-Up (2016), 5th Place in the World (2021), and 7th Place in the World
(2023) for the Adobe Certified Professional World Championship category in the US.
New In-Camera Signature Solution Attaches Digital Certificate to Photos at the Point of Capture to Certify Legitimacy
Sony Electronics today announced the completion of a second round of testing with the Associated Press for Sony’s in-camera authenticity technology. This in-camera digital signature enables the construction of a birth certificate for photos, authenticating the content’s origin.
Sony’s authenticity technology provides a machine-based digital signature, removing the opportunity for undetected manipulation at the start. The digital signature is made inside the camera at the moment of capture in the hardware chipset. This security feature is aimed at professionals wanting to safeguard the authenticity of their content and provides an extra layer of security to aid news agencies in their fight against falsified imagery.
“While the rapid evolution of generative AI (Artificial Intelligence) brings new possibilities for creative expression, it has also led to growing concern about the impact of altered or manipulated imagery in journalism,” says Neal Manowitz, President and COO of Sony Electronics. “The dissemination of false information and images has real world social impact that brings harm not only to our photojournalist and news agency partners, but to society as a whole. We care deeply about this challenge and are committed to using our resources to help solve it. Through Sony’s work on the steering committee for C2PA (Coalition for Content Provenance and Authenticity), we have helped set the current industry standard for the tracking of editing and manipulation of imagery. Additionally, our in-camera authenticity technology has shown valuable results, and we will continue to push its development towards a wider release.”
“Fake and manipulated images are a major concern for news organizations. Not only do they contribute to mis- and disinformation but ultimately, they erode the public’s trust in factual, accurate imagery,” said David Ake, AP Director of Photography. “We are proud to be working alongside Sony Electronics to create an authentication solution that can help combat this problem.”
Sony and AP’s most recent field test was completed during October of 2023. In this month-long test, both capture authentication and workflow process were evaluated. To accomplish this, Sony partnered with Camera Bits – the company behind the industry standard workflow tool, Photo Mechanic. Alongside Sony and AP, Camera Bits created technology in Photo Mechanic that preserves the camera’s digital signature all the way through the metadata editing process.
“We appreciate the significant challenge that manipulated imagery poses for our partners, and we are highly motivated to play a role in helping solve it,” says Dennis Walker, President and Founder of Camera Bits. “Photo Mechanic has been used by the photojournalism industry for 25 years and continues to evolve as the industry introduces new technology. We are committed to ensuring Photo Mechanic remains a trusted and authentic workflow solution.”
Sony’s new in-camera signature and C2PA authentication is planned for release in a firmware update in the newly announced Alpha 9 III, Alpha 1, and Alpha 7S III in the Spring of 2024.
Capture dynamic moments such as sports scenes with high agility and supreme image quality
Sony is happy to announce the release of the world’s lightest 300 mm telephoto prime lens, the G MasterTM FE 300mm F2.8 GM OSS, as well as a 35 mm full-frame αTM (AlphaTM) E-mount lens with a maximum aperture of F2.8 (product name SEL300F28GM).
This lens offers the supreme detailing which is the hallmark of G master as well as high-speed, high-precision AF (autofocus) performance. In addition, the lightweight design of approximately 1470g (excluding tripod mount) and excellent weight balance allows you to capture sharp, dynamic and decisive moments such as those of fast-moving sports or agile animals with handheld shooting. Paired with the Alpha 9 III that is simultaneously announced, high-speed continuous shooting with AF/AE tracking up to 120 frames per second is possible. Even subjects with complex and diversified movements can be tracked with high precision. It is an ideal match for lightweight camera bodies by reducing the load on the photographer, minimising fatigue during long handheld shooting sessions. It is also compatible with an optional teleconverter, allowing you to shoot in the telephoto range of up to 600 mm (equivalent to 900 mm when using with an APS-C camera).
Lightweight and ideally balanced telephoto 300mm F2.8Main featuresG Master telephoto lens that captures decisive moments with high resolution and beautiful bokeh
Incorporating Sony’s cutting-edge technology, the G Master’s high-resolution performance and beautiful bokeh make the subject stand out clearly and precise AF captures decisive moments such as sports, news reports, events, and wildlife photography. An innovative optical design that includes three Super ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements and one ED glass element is effectively placed to suppress chromatic aberration and achieve high resolution and contrast across the entire frame. Outstanding resolution and contrast are maintained right out to the image edges, which also allows for more flexible cropping and editing.
Breathtaking G Master resolution
Gorgeous, creamy bokeh that is a hallmark of G Master design ideally complements the lens’s 300 mm focal length and F2.8 maximum aperture, allowing the use of narrow depth of field to make subjects stand out from the background. Each lens is individually calibrated during manufacture to optimise bokeh quality. An 11-blade circular aperture mechanism contributes to smooth ball bokeh.
Beautiful bokeh brings subjects to the foreHigh-performance AF that captures dynamic moments and high-speed continuous shooting with AE/AF tracking up to 120 frames per second2
The combination of two latest XD (extreme dynamic) Linear Motors and control algorithms provides high-speed, high-precision, and low-vibration AF performance. When combined with the simultaneously announced Alpha 9 III, it enables high-speed continuous shooting with AF/AE tracking of up to 120 frames per second. This allows you to capture dynamic subjects without missing a moment’s opportunity, even when shooting scenes where the subject moves quickly, such as sports or animals, or scenes where the subject moves erratically, such as at events. In addition, high AF performance is demonstrated even when the separately sold teleconverter3 is attached.
Fast, precise AF is also quiet and low in vibrationHigh-speed continuous shooting with fast, precise AF/AEHigh AF tracking performance with 1.4x and 2.0x teleconvertersExceptional mobility and comfortable operability that support professionals in the field
Extensive weight reduction measures make FE 300mm F2.8 GM OSS the lightest in its class1, at approximately 1470g (excluding tripod mount) and has been designed with consideration to weight balance. The internal lens barrel uses durable magnesium alloy to achieve both high robustness and light weight. The weight is not concentrated at the front of the lens barrel, making it highly stable and allows for agile and accurate panning while handheld shooting. In addition, MODE3, which provides enhanced viewfinder stability and optimises the image stabilisation algorithm, allows you to accurately capture dynamic scenes.

Sony today unveiled the revolutionary new Alpha 9 III camera, which features the world’s first1 full-frame global shutter picture sensor.
The impressive new global shutter full-frame image sensor enables the camera to shoot at burst speeds at up to 120 fps with no distortion or camera blackout. By combining this innovative sensor with Sony’s most advanced AF system to date – boasting AI autofocus with up to 120 times AF/AE focus calculations per second – as well as the ability to sync flash at all shooting speeds, the Alpha 9 III opens up a new world of possibilities for professional photographers to capture that decisive moment.
Up to 120 AF/AE tracking calculations per second
Features of the Alpha 9 III
A new dimension of still image performance created by the world’s first1 global shutter image sensor
The new Alpha 9 III is equipped with a newly developed world’s first1 global shutter full frame stacked CMOS image sensor with approximately 24.6 effective megapixels and built-in memory, combined with the latest image processing engine BIONZ XR®. It achieves blackout-free Continuous Shooting Speed with AF/AE tracking of up to approximately 120 frames per second4. The new Alpha 9 III is equipped with high-density focal plane phase detection AF. A Designated AI processing unit uses Real-time Recognition AF (autofocus) to recognise a wide variety of subjects with high precision. By combining high-speed performance of up to 120 frames per second with highly accurate subject recognition performance, it is possible to easily photograph decisive scenes and moments that cannot be captured with the naked eye4. The AI processing unit in the Alpha 9 III supports movies as well as stills with accurate subject form and movement recognition, providing a significant improvement in human eye recognition performance with Real-time Recognition AF and Real-time Tracking automatically recognising, tracking, and focusing on the eyes of a specified subject.

Shutter speed is freed from the limitations of conventional mechanical shutter image sensors and achieves a maximum shutter speed of 1/80000 second (1/16000 second during continuous shooting), making it possible to capture at high speed without any distortion. When a compatible Sony flash is attached, such as the HVL-F60RM2 and HVL-F46RM (sold separately), it is possible to synchronise the flash and take pictures at all shutter speeds up to 1/80000 second8. Previously, if the user released the shutter at a speed faster than the flash’s synchronisation speed, the amount of light would drop sharply, but with the full-speed flash synchronisation function, it’s now possible to photograph scenes that could not be easily captured with conventional technology. Also, when shooting stills or movies under LED lighting, the Hi Frequency Flicker function can significantly reduce high-frequency flicker problems by allowing the shutter speed to be finely adjusted to match the flicker frequency while viewing the monitor.
Ultra-fast 1/8000013 second shutter speed
Flash sync at all shutter speeds
The Alpha 9 III features selectable release lag modes which allows the user to prioritise release lag or viewfinder/monitor display. The newly installed Pre-Capture function allows the user to go back up to 1 second and record the moment before pressing the shutter, a Continuous Shooting Speed Boost change during shooting, and enhanced burst stamina ensures that important moments are reliably captured due to a large buffer memory and increased overall system speed allow up to approximately 390 Fine JPEG images to be captured in one continuous 30 fps burst.
Capture essential moments with innovative high-speed burst support
Customisable focus areas have been expanded to include from XS to XL instead of the previous S, M, and L sizes. The Preset Focus/Zoom function allows preset focus and zoom settings to be memorised in the camera for quick recall when needed. In addition to the existing custom white balance frame size, the user can now select other sizes as needed which allows for fine white balance adjustment after an image has been composed. The Alpha 9 III has upgraded features such as the latest AF algorithms to achieve high AF precision down to light levels as low as EV-5 in AF-S mode (ISO 100 equivalent, F2.0 lens), AF tracking for continuous shooting at F22 and a composite RAW shooting function that gives the ability to combine multiple consecutive images into a high-quality composite.

The ECM-S1’s audio input level volume can also be adjusted intuitively with the upper dial while checking the audio input level in real time with the indicator lamps. The built-in LINK lamp indicates the communication status between the microphone and receiver to prevent any missed recording.
When recording via a USB connection between the microphone and a PC or smartphone, headphones (commercially available) can be connected to the microphone’s headphone out jack to monitor the audio without involving the connected device. The headphone volume can also be adjusted with a short press of the dial on the bottom of the microphone. You can adjust the audio mixing ratio between the input volume level of the audio from the microphone and that of the audio from the computer or smartphone via the USB connection with the headphone volume/mixing ratio adjustment dial on the microphone.
The ECM-S1 and receiver each have a built-in battery for extended use. The receiver can also be used continuously with the support of direct power supply when connected to the camera’s MI Shoe or a USB Type-C® cable. The microphone can be used continuously for up to 13 hours when the battery is fully charged using a USB Type-C® cable.
In addition, a pop guard reduces popping noises that occurs when the speaker’s mouth is close to the microphone and their breath comes into direct contact with the microphone. This enables vocals, narration, and other audio to be recorded under optimal conditions. A stand that can be attached to the microphone is also included, allowing the microphone to stand without support while recording. The microphone angle can also be adjusted forward or backward. Alternatively, the stand can be removed when not in use and the 1/4” thread on the bottom of the microphone allows it to be mounted on a tripod or attached to a commercially available microphone arm.
Availability
The ECM-S1, ECM-W3 and ECM-W3S wireless microphones will be available in Malaysia from November 2023.
