Features

The Panasonic DMW-DMS1 Multi-Pattern Shotgun Microphone delivers crisp, focused audio in a lightweight, cable-free design built for modern creators. Featuring a newly engineered 0.4-inch large-diameter microphone array, six selectable directional modes, advanced wind-noise cancellation, and professional 32-bit float recording, it provides flexible, distortion-free sound capture in environments ranging from quiet studios to high-intensity live events.

High-Precision 0.4" Large-Diameter Mic Array

A specially engineered 0.4-inch large-diameter microphone array captures detailed, focused sound, even in challenging or noisy environments.

Floating Shockmount Design

An internal floating shockmount minimizes vibration and handling noise, helping maintain clean recordings while moving or adjusting your rig.

Advanced Wind-Noise Cancellation

The included windscreen manages light wind and handling noise, while an advanced wind-noise cancellation system powered by float-recording technology suppresses harsh wind without compressing your intended signal-preserving natural, open vocals.

Six Directional Modes

Switch instantly between Forward Cardioid, Stereo, Wide Stereo, Forward Supercardioid, Rearward Supercardioid, and Bidirectional Supercardioid to match interviews, vlogs, music, travel, and more—no extra accessories required.

32-Bit Float Recording

Capture distortion-free audio, even at extreme levels up to approximately 120 dB. Ideal for concerts, events, and other high-intensity environments.

Built-In Backup Recording Modes

Two backup recording modes help protect against missed audio caused by accidental setting errors and allow ambient sound capture when needed (compatible with S1RII, S1II, and S1IIE as of February 2026).

Lightweight, Cable-Free Operation

Weighing just 0.22 lb, the DMW-DMS1 draws power and transmits digital audio directly through the hot shoe-eliminating cables and simplifying your setup.

Intuitive Physical Controls

Dedicated physical switches and adjustable-brightness directional-mode buttons enable quick adjustments and reliable operation-even in low-light conditions.
