-48dBu is set as 0dB in your camcorder.

Set [INPUT TRIM] to [0dB] for the supplied microphone (ECM-XM1).

Set [INPUT TRIM] to [+12dB] for a microphone with an average sensitivity, including the optional microphone (Sony ECM- NV1).

The INPUT TRIM function adjusts the input level from an external microphone. When using a highly sensitive microphone or recording loud sound, set this to the minus side. When using a less sensitive microphone or recording quiet sound, set it to the plus side.

When recording loud sound, the sound may be distorted at either the input point or the

recording point. If it is distorted at the input point, adjust the sound using the INPUT TRIM function. If it is distorted at the recording point, lower the total volume level manually.

If you set INPUT TRIM too far to the minus side, the microphone volume becomes too low, resulting in a poor signal to noise ratio.

Test the effect of the INPUT TRIM function according to the microphone used or the sound field of the recording site before actual recording.
