Sony's digital shotgun for multi-interface shoe — connects digitally to A7S III / A7C without an analog cable. Useful precedent: the same model Jason Morris also picked for the same reason.

Sony's compact digital shotgun that connects via the multi-interface hot shoe — no cable, no batteries, no preamp. Plays well with the FX-line bodies he runs.
