You can connect a commercially available stereo microphone to the
microphone terminal on the camera and record stereo sound. Using an
external microphone can also help to reduce the possibility of recording
camera operation sounds.
1
Turn off the camera.
2
Open the microphone
terminal cover and
connect the plug of the
microphone to the
microphone terminal
on the camera.
3
Turn the camera on.
Connecting a Microphone
The following specifications are recommended for external microphones.
• Plug: Stereo mini plug (ø3.5 mm)
• Format: Stereo electret condenser
• Power: Plug-in Power Method (operating voltage of 2.0 V or lower)
• Impedance: 2.2 kΩ
If the external microphone is disconnected during recording, the camera
cannot switch to the internal microphone until recording has stopped. No sound
will be recorded.
If you used an external microphone to record movie sound in stereo, the sound
can be played back in stereo when you use a commercially available HDMI
cable to output the movie to an HDMI-compatible AV device. (p.258) If you use
an AV cable to output the movie, monaural sound is played back.
