Recording Audio
Recording Audio
The camcorder features 2-channel AAC audio recording and playback. You can record audio using the built-in
microphone, the mini advanced shoe and optional DM-100 Directional Stereo Microphone or the MIC terminal
70
(commercially available microphones). The camcorder will record audio from the built-in microphone unless an
external microphone is connected.
The audio signal will be output along with the video signal from the HDMI OUT terminal and you can record it on
an external recorder.
Operating modes:
Connecting an External Microphone to the Camcorder
Using the DM-100 Directional Stereo Microphone you can accurately record audio mainly from the direction
where the camcorder is pointing. To reduce wind noise, attach the wind screen supplied with the microphone.
Refer also to the instruction manual of the DM-100.
To the MIC terminal you can attach commercially available condenser microphones with a ∅ 3.5 mm stereo mini
plug. You can supply power to an external microphone compatible with plug-in power (A 75).
Attach the optional DM-100 Directional Stereo Microphone to the mini advanced shoe (A 69).
Connect other external microphones to the MIC terminal.
• When the DM-100 is connected, it will have priority over a microphone connected to the MIC terminal
NOTES NOTES
• When using an optional DM-100 Directional Stereo Microphone attached to the camcorder, if you operate the
zoom while recording, the microphone may pick up and record lens operation sounds.
