Using an External Microphone
You can attach a commercially available
microphone for recording movies.
When recording in very quiet
surroundings, the built-in microphone
may pick up the sound of the
camcorder's internal machinery. In such
case, we recommend using an external
microphone.
Connecting a Microphone
Connect the external microphone to the
MIC terminal. Use commercially
available condenser microphones with
their own power supply. You can
connect almost any stereo microphone
with a
∅ 3.5 mm plug but audio
recording levels may vary.
IMPORTANT
Make sure to check the audio recording
level before recording with the external
microphone (
79).
