If you wish to record higher quality sound and maintain realism even when zooming in, for instance, when recording a music recital, we recommend setting [MIC SETUP] to [SURROUND].

If you have an external microphone connected when recording in [iFrame], [MIC SETUP] is set to [STEREO MIC] automatically.

When switching to Intelligent Auto Mode, the setting is fixed to [AUTO] and cannot be changed.

When [MIC SETUP] is [ZOOM MIC], the volume will be different depending on the zoom rate.

When [MIC SETUP] is set to [STEREO MIC] or external microphone input is used, the sound is stereo (2 ch) and only the front-left and front-right input level meters function.

The microphone input level meter shows the largest volume for the microphones.

You cannot record with the audio completely muted.
