  • Simple, effective solution for HQ audio (& surprisingly good limiter)
This has been a nice addition to my GH5 rig. I used to attach my Zoom H5 to my rig, and then run a line out from it into the GH5. Effectively, it gave me 2 XLR inputs, good quality audio directly in-cam, and the option to have a backup audio recording (in-cam and recording to the H5). Using the DMW-XLR1 is quicker and simpler to set up out of my bag—less cables, less weight. On a recent live-event shoot, when I thought intermittent loud music was clipping, I was surprised to hear that it all sounded great (I think it has a built-in limiter?). Either way, it sounded great and that was without using the -20db pad. Improvements/requested features for the next iteration: - Option to duplicate Ch.1 to Ch.2, but record Ch.2 at a lower db (however, maybe not needed as the limiter worked so well?) - A 3.5mm jack to accept a line out from something like a Zoom H5 recorder or other microphones with that output Great piece of gear that doesn't add weight or get in the way. ... show more

  • A seriously good idea for the GH5
I am changing my review, upgrading from three to five stars. I previously complained that this unit had a major design flaw due to the lack of a 1/8 inch female receptacle jack for connecting this unit to non-GH5 cameras, such as my numerous GH4 cameras. But that was unfair. I don't know the hardware limitations of the GH4 hotshoe, or if it could be configured through a firmware update to power this audio input device. This device is clearly aimed at working with the GH5 only. And that is OK. Lots of companies have devices that are designed to supplement their other devices. I just received my audio input unit today. Read the manual. I like it so much I have arranged the budgeting for purchasing a GH5 in a week or so. It seems like a perfect little unit for professional mic inputs. The unit is light and compact. Once I get my GH5, I will hook it up with a Rode NTG-3 and update my review. UPDATE: OK. I now have my GH5, and have set it up. I put this audio interface unit on it, and then put a Rode NTG-3 on that. I recorded a vlog. Here is the verdict. This unit is really great. Like, GREAT, great. There was no noise. The audio was spotless. Everything seems very sturdy. Also, I confirmed that this unit will NOT work with the GH4. I put it on one of my GH4s, and the audio interface would not power on. Apparently, there is no way to supply a constant source of power from the GH4 to this audio interface. So this interface is strictly for the GH5. But it is still one heck of a compact, light, and high quality audio interface. So when working with a GH4, one still has to use a Tascam or H4n if you want to feed XLR mics into the GH4. Or one can use, say, a Sony wireless setup to go directly into the GH4 without an interface. But for the GH5, this audio interface is the way to go. ... show more

  • A Quality & Key Accessory For The Panasonic Lumix GH5!!!
Recently, I purchased this little gadget for my Lumix GH5! The item arrived very quickly ( two days or less). It is a pricey item but you will find it's about the same, if not more somewhere else. It is a must g have if you are using a boom mic or any other XLR mic. It comes with with a nifty protective door that lifts up so you can safely adjust the settings. The protective door also helps you keep the settings in place in case you accidentally bump it while filming. It also has a latch to lock it in place once you slide it onto the hot shoe and comes with two XLR outputs and setting adjustments. The protective pouch is very thick/durable and keeps your adapter safe when storing. All in all, I am very happy with my purchase and couldn't ask for more!! Thank you Amazon :) ... show more

  • Good r
Really happy with this thing. It does suck up the battery life something fierce, and I wish I could set one channel to the camera's internal mic, but it's definitely made my gh5 much more useful as a video camera now that I can attach external mics. I kept having trouble trying to connect mics to the cameras mini input. They would cut in and out sometimes. Might be specific to my camera, I dont know, but this attachment has worked very reliably. I did end up getting the extra battery grip for the camera and a small rig frame for the camera so i had more places to attach mics and more battery life. I often attach a short shotgun mic and a wireless lavalier. Pretty good set up! ... show more

  • Why should you pay more for this vs other choices? LESS CABLES and works great
I love this thing. Sure it's expensive but it is WORLDS better than having extra cables getting in your way. A headphone jack would be nice and some LED's but since it's sucking power from my GH5S camera battery to run I guess it's a good thing it's pretty minimal. The sound is pretty clean and the XLR inputs are tight and no give. Same with the hotshoe connection. Why should you pay more? LESS CABLES and works great ... show more

  • POORLY MADE
Poorly built, after a couple weeks of work the hot shoe connection is intermittent and cost me some audio I needed on a project. Non reliable, over expensive. Of course it waited for just past a month to fail so now I have this $400 POS that I cannot use...
