Is this microphone compatible with Sony HDR-CX550? It has Active Interface Shoe.

No. It does not use the active interface shoe. It only uses the jack. But the good news is that it can be powered by that jack if need be (if you camera supports that). FYI - To keep things extra quiet on the audio pickup, I still use the AA battery.

The microphone does not have an active shoe. Audio is transferred by a 3.5 mm audio connector. Power can be either a AA 1.5 volt battery or powered by the camera through the 3.5 mm audio connector.

From what I have found the HDR-CX220 came with Battery FV50 and the FV70 is an upgrade. With that, yes it is compatible. I too purchased this same battery (FV70) and have been very happy with it.

Returned mine but if recall correctly mic is built-in. Should install with camera driver installation and find it it in audio devices.

I have an alpha a77 and don't know much about NEX cameras. The NEX 7 does have a flash shoe so I'd get on Sony's support site and ask your question. They've been helpful to me in the past. The other answer to your question from another stated that the mic was shown being compatible with the NEX 7. Might confirm with Sony if you're still skeptical. If you do buy one you ALWAYS have to remember to turn it off when done videoing otherwise you burn out the battery very quickly. Good luck.

This will work with the Multi-Interface Shoe Adapter. This is a discontinued model. I will recommend the Sony HVL-F43M with Multi-Interface Shoe Adapter.

I'm pretty sure it will not work with the zi-8 as the zi-8 has a 1/8" (3.5mm) jack for a microphone and this requires an active boot.

It should work. The "EzFoto Sony Camcorder Active Interface Shoe to universal hot shoe adapter" just convert the Sony's Active Interface hot shoe to generic hot shoe. I'm using this to attached an external Rode Videomic directional microphone to the Sony's HDR-CX700v camcorder.

The compatibility is not the problem, the microphone quality is. Since i new it never work.

It does not appear so. This adapter is for Sony's Universal Shoe. Your HDR-CX900 has a Multi Interface shoe. They aren't the same thing.

Hi, I am looking to buy a mic to attach to the accessory shoe on the Camcorder. Can I use any mic or do I need to buy a Panasonic mic only? Please recommend a good brand if I can use any off-the-shelf mic. Thanks!
