Note
If dust or water droplets are present on the surface of the microphone, successful recording may not be possible. Be sure to
clean the microphone surface before using the handle.
While recording is in progress, operating and handling noises from the camera or lens may be recorded. Touching the handle
while recording is in progress will cause noise to the recording.
If the microphone on the handle is in proximity to a speaker, acoustic feedback may occur. In this case, move the handle away
from the speaker to allow the maximum distance between the microphone and the speaker, or lower the speaker volume.
When a micro USB cable is connected to the handle, using the XLR adaptor may affect its performance.
Use of the XLR adaptor in the vicinity of a radio tower may cause static noise in recordings. Before camera shooting, make sure
that there is no radio tower nearby.
Even when the HANDLE AUDIO switch is set to ON, audio from the XLR adaptor cannot be recorded while an external
microphone is connected to the camera.
You cannot adjust the recording volume level for external audio devices connected to the XLR adaptor.
