2.3 Mounting a microphone
To attach a microphone to the camcorder proceed as follows:
1. Unscrew the knurled screw and open the microphone holder.
2. Place the microphone inside the rubber jaws of the holder.
3. Don’t allow the wind hood to touch the holder as this reduces the damping effect.
4. Close the holder and tighten the knurled screw .
5. Connect the microphone cable to the MIC audio connector on the right side of the
camcorder.
– The microphone connector supplies phantom power (+48 Vdc).
– Ensure that the input sensitivity is correctly selected in the camcorder menu to match the
type of microphone you are using.
6. To avoid mechanical pick-up, do not let the microphone cable touch the holder.
7. Place the microphone cable into the top clip at the front of the camcorder to guide the
cable.
