Kit Overview

The Sony XLR-H1 XLR Handle Unit is the ultimate audio and handling upgrade for the Sony FX30. It transforms a compact camera setup by adding dual broadcast-grade audio inputs and providing a rigid top handle for stable, low-angle tracking shots.

Whether you are capturing dialogue for a narrative film, running a shotgun microphone for documentaries, or pulling a direct feed from a soundboard at a live event, this handle provides complete, tactile control over your audio directly on the FX30 rig.

Key Features for Video Creators

  • Dual XLR/TRS Combo Inputs: Features two high-quality combo XLR/TRS inputs plus an additional 3.5mm microphone input, allowing you to run professional shotgun mics, wireless lavalier receivers, and line-level signals simultaneously into the FX30.
  • Tactile Physical Audio Controls: Gain dials, input selectors, and low-cut filters are located physically on the side of the handle for real-time adjustments.
  • Accidental-Change Protection: Built-in hinged plastic covers shield the physical dials, ensuring your audio settings never get bumped or altered mid-take.
  • Integrated Microphone Holder: Equipped with a built-in shotgun microphone clamp to securely mount standard cylindrical field mics directly to the front of the handle.
  • Secure Rigidity: The handle slides into the FX30's Multi Interface (MI) Shoe and locks down tightly using two captive screws, ensuring zero wobble or flex while carrying the rigged camera.
  • Accessory Mounting Points: Features three standard 1/4"-20 threaded holes on top of the handle, allowing you to easily mount external monitors, articulating arms, or wireless video transmitters.
