Using Headphones during Recording

when " H" is displayed on the screen. If not, change the setting following the
procedure below.

[PHONES H] and close the menu.

volume with the SET dial and close the menu.
You can turn off the volume completely by turning the SET dial down until [OFF] appears.
Turn the SET dial up to increase the volume again.
Recording with an External Microphone
You can attach a commercially available
microphone or the optional DM-50 Directional
Stereo Microphone to the accessory shoe.
Refer also to the instruction manual of the
microphone.
1. Attach the microphone to the accessory shoe.
2. When using a commercially available microphone, connect it to the MIC
terminal.
❍When recording in silent places, the built-in microphone may pick up the
motor noise of the camcorder. In such case, we recommend using an external
microphone.
❍ When using a commercially available microphone:
- Use a microphone with built-in power supply (condenser microphone). Almost
all stereo microphones with a plug diameter of 0.14 in. (3.5 mm) can be
connected. The audio level may differ from that of the built-in microphone.
- Long microphones may appear on the screen.
