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 [i Frame], [ MIC SETUP] is
set to [STEREO MIC] automatically.
When recording, the input level from the built-in microphones and the external microphone
terminal can be adjusted.
Switch to Manual Mode. (l82)
1 Select the menu.
It is possible to select the setting from the quick menu in Manual Mode. (l45) The
microphone level returns to the setting adjusted previously, and it cannot be set from the
quick menu.

Touch to activate/disactivate AGC.
When AGC is activated, the icon is surrounded by
yellow and the amount of sound distortion can be
reduced. When AGC is disactivated, natural recording
can be performed.
Adjust the microphone input level so that the last
2 bars of the gain value are not red. (Otherwise, the
sound is distorted.) Select a lower setting for
microphone input level.

3 Touch [ENTER] to set the microphone input

level and then touch [EXIT].

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

When [MIC SETUP] is [ZOOM MIC], the volume will be different depending on the zoom
rate.
When [MIC SETUP] is set to [STE REO MIC] or external microphone i nput is used, the
sound is stereo (2 ch) and only the front-left and front-right input level meters function.
