Canon DM-E10D: UK preorder price and December release

By Dipesh, Cineview Studios.

Canon has announced the DM-E10D, a compact digital microphone for compatible cameras with its Multi-function Shoe. Introduced on 4 November, it is due in the UK from December 2026. London Camera Exchange currently lists preorders at £229.99.

A lighter audio setup for speaking to camera

The microphone receives power and sends digital audio through the shoe, removing the need for a separate battery or connecting cable. Canon specifies a supercardioid pickup pattern and a weight of approximately 59g, excluding the windshield and shoe cover.

A MENU button opens the camera’s sound settings. For vloggers and small crews, the practical attraction is fewer separate components to manage. Compatibility still matters: this is a digital shoe accessory, so check support for your exact camera before ordering.

UK price and release timing

Canon’s UK announcement gives December 2026 availability without a specific day. As checked on 9 November, LCE’s £229.99 listing is a preorder with stock expected in December, not confirmation of immediate dispatch.

Canon Japan separately lists a late-December release. That regional date should not be treated as a confirmed UK delivery date. Ask your retailer for the latest estimate before committing it to a shoot.

This is manufacturer-sourced announcement coverage, not Cineview hands-on testing. We have not assessed the microphone’s sound quality or noise rejection.
