Headphone Jack [PHONES]

Connecting an AV Cable to this jack activates the Camcorder’s built-in speaker, but connecting a headphone, etc. deactivates it.

When connecting the pin plug of the AV Cable to this jack, plug it in as far as it goes.

When using headphones, set [INITIAL] >> [AV JACK] >> [OUT/PHONES].

33Microphone Jack [MIC] (For PV-GS14/PV-GS15)

When connecting an external microphone or audio equipment to this jack, the built-in microphone does not operate.

A compatible plug-in powered microphone can be used. Please consult your dealer for more information.

The microphone may make noises depending on the type used. In this case, we recommend using the battery with the Camcorder to reduce noises instead of the AC Adaptor.
