Wind Screen
The camcorder reduces wind noise automatically. However, you can turn off the wind
screen when recording indoors, or when you want the microphone to be as sensitive as
possible.

AUDIO SETUP
( 38)
Open the menu and select [AUDIO SETUP]. Select [WIND SCREEN], set it

"WS " appears when you turn the wind screen off.
The wind screen function can only be used with the built-in microphone.
You can attach a commercially available
microphone equipped with an accessory
shoe.
Refer also to the instruction manual of the
microphone.
1. Attach the microphone to the
accessory shoe.
2. When using a commercially
available microphone, connect it
to the MIC terminal.
When recording in silent places, the built-in microphone may pick up the motor
noise of the camcorder. In such case, we recommend using an external
microphone.
When using a commercially available microphone:
- Use a microphone with built-in power supply (condenser microphone). Almost
all stereo microphones with a plug diameter of 3.5 mm (0.14 in.) can be
connected. The audio level may differ from that of the built-in microphone.
- Long microphones may appear on the screen.
