Recording With An External Microphone - Canon MVX-45i Instruction Manual

Recording with an External
Microphone
You can attach a commercially available microphone (MVX45i: or the optional DM-50
Directional Stereo 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.
