Plugs in easily, works right away, compact. Good Value.

In defense of this little add-on LUMIX stereo mic, it makes a greart ambient recorder for outdoor events and concerts, in particular. It isolates the audio from any autofocus or zoom motor noise withing the camera, so in that sense it's a huge step up from the internal mics. Also, it doesn't overload easily and gives a clean, moderately-compressed signal. It's not a shotgun -- those are equally affordable if that's what you're looking for.

I do not yet know the best application for this mic. It is supposed to do well picking up sound at a distant. The built in mic doesn't, so I am hoping I get 20+ feet of audio pick up. We'll see. BW

With the Panasonic DMW-MS1 Stereo Microphone you can clearly record audio in higher quality and from greater distances.
