Thank you for purchasing the ProMaster SGM1 Compact Shotgun Microphone. For the
best performance, please read this manual thoroughly before using the product.
The SGM1 is a directional microphone. By mounting it to the top of your camera or
camcorder it is pointed in the same direction as your lens. This ensures the audio will be
focused on your subject while distracting background noise is reduced. Your videos will
benefit from clearer, more understandable sound.
Precautions.
!
Avoid water, rain, and moisture as it can damage the SGM1
!
Avoid extreme temperatures, especially above 60°C / 140°F.
!
The SGM1 microphone is a sensitive, precision instrument. Avoid dropping or
shaking it.
!
Use only a high quality 1.5V alkaline AA battery. Lower voltage rechargeable
batteries may not provide proper operation.
!
Remove the battery from the microphone when it is not in use for an extended period
of time.
!
Do not disassemble or attempt to repair this product yourself. Doing so will void the
warranty.
Keep the product and parts away from small children to avoid hazard from choking or

swallowing.
