Press the AUDIO MONITOR button to make a sound check — stereo 1 only (ST1), stereo 2 only (ST2) or
both (MIX) [each in turn].
• Your choice is selected a few seconds after you last pressed the button, and shown in the viewfinder and
audio LCD panel.
• Unlike selecting the audio output in VCR mode, you cannot mix the balance at this point — even if
VARIABLE is chosen at the VCR menu, it is fixed during camera mode.
Headphones
You can monitor the sound while recording by attaching stereo headphones to the camera's H terminal.
Adjust the headphone volume by rotating the PHONES LEVEL dial.
