Notes
• If the input level on the camera is not at an appropriate
setting for the microphone sensitivity, loud sounds may be
distorted, and the signal-to-noise ratio may be affected.
• In order for the AUDIO 1 IN and AUDIO 2 IN connectors on
the camera to be able to provide a phantom 48 V power
supply, female XLR connectors (3-pin) are fitted. If the
microphone cable has a female connector, use an adaptor.
• When you detach a CAC-12 Microphone Holder once you
have attached to the camera, be careful not to lose the two
screws fixing the CAC-12 (in step 1). After detaching the
CAC-12, be sure to put the two screws back into their
original places.
