DCS-1 Dual Cold Shoe Microphone Mount

RØDE DCS-1 Dual Cold Shoe Mount — Double Your Accessory Slots Without a Cage

The gist: Travel filmmakers who need both a wireless receiver and a VideoMic on a compact mirrorless body — without the bulk of a full camera cage — get a clean, simple solution for $11.

• Two cold shoes from one: Mounts to any existing cold shoe or hot shoe and provides two output slots, letting you attach dual RØDE Wireless GO receivers or a mic + small light simultaneously.
• 42.7g aluminum construction: Lightweight but rigid — Newsshooter confirmed it “doesn’t flex or bend” even with accessories attached, which matters when you’re moving between shots.
• 1/4” thread base: Also mounts directly to a tripod or magic arm if you need to position it off-camera.
• Cable management slots: Built-in routing for RØDE audio cables keeps your run-and-gun rig tidy without tape or zip ties.

Newsshooter’s review called it “a simple, effective way” to mount components while maintaining minimal rig size — particularly useful for filmmakers shooting on compact mirrorless bodies like the Sony A7 series or Fujifilm X-series.

Best for: Travel filmmakers who need dual-microphone or mic-plus-light setups on a mirrorless camera without adding a full cage. Skip it if: your accessories use heavy locking mounts — the standard cold shoe clips can work loose without a physical locking mechanism. Runs ~$11 — check the current price before buying.
