Great audio shouldnÕt mean a complicated setup. The Panasonic LUMIX DMW-DMS1 Advanced Digital Microphone connects directly to the digital hot shoe of compatible LUMIX mirrorless cameras, providing cable-free, interference-free recording that is ready to go straight from the camera. From sit-down interviews and fast-paced documentaries to solo vlogging, the DMW-DMS1 is designed to suit the way you shoot.

Designed for the Way You Shoot

Drawing on PanasonicÕs experience in professional broadcast and cinema production, the DMW-DMS1 is built to fit naturally into a hybrid shooterÕs workflow. Its selectable pickup patterns give you flexibility for different situations, letting you switch from a tight shotgun setup for talking-head content to stereo or surround recording for wider scenes without needing an external recorder or extra gear.

Built for the Field

The DMW-DMS1 features a durable construction suited to real-world production use, while its simple physical controls make mode changes quick and intuitive. That kind of ease matters when youÕre working solo or following a moving subject. Finished in low-profile black, it sits neatly with LUMIX bodies for a clean, professional look on set or when shooting run-and-gun on the street.
