Audio Meter
The peak audio meters display audio levels for channels 1 and 2 when using the internal
microphone, or via external audio when connected. The display is calibrated to dBFS units
and features peak hold indicators which stay visible for a short time so you can clearly see the
maximum levels reached.
To achieve optimum audio quality, ensure your audio levels do not reach 0 dBFS. This is the
maximum level that your camera can record, meaning that any audio that exceeds this level will
be clipped, resulting in distortion.
The colored bars on the audio meter represent peak audio
levels. Ideally your peak audio levels should fall in the upper
end of the green zone. If your peaks enter into the yellow or
red zones your audio is in danger of clipping.
