Audio functions
• The MIC IN (microphone input) connector (XLR type,
5-pin, female) allows you to connect the supplied stereo
microphone. You can record either stereo or monaural
sound.
• An optional slot-in UHF portable tuner, WRR-855A/
855B, can be attached.
• The two AUDIO IN connectors (XLR type, 3-pin) on the
rear panel can be switched to line input, microphone
input, or + 48V external power, and also to AES/EBU
digital audio inputs.
• Four channels of 20-bit digital audio can be recorded.
• The AUDIO OUT connector (XLR 5-pin) allows the
camcorder to output signals as stereo audio.
Proper balancing design
The camcorder features a new shoulder-pad system that
enables you to adjust the front-to-rear direction position (to
ensure proper balance) without the use of any tools.
Freeze Mix function
Apart from the freeze function to obtain a freeze-frame
picture from the playback picture on the VTR, a freeze-
frame picture of the video signal input from the camera can
be obtained. The obitained freeze-frame picture and the
video from the camera can then be mixed and displayed.
This function is available only when the HKDW-905R
Slow Shutter and Image Inverter Board is installed.
Function extension interface and optional
boards
An extension connector can be attached to the battery
attachment on the rear panel.

expand the existing functions.
