Audio Recording
Changing the Audio Mode
You can record sound in two audio modes—16-bit and 12-bit. The 12-bit mode records
sound on two channels (stereo 1), leaving 2 channels free (stereo 2) for adding new
sound later. Select the 16-bit mode for higher sound quality.
Open the menu and select [AUDIO SETUP]. Select [AUDIO MODE], set it to
[16bit] and close the menu.
“16bit” appears for approximately 4 seconds.

You can manually adjust the audio recording level of the built-in microphone or an
external microphone.
1. In CAMERA mode, set the program selector to Q.
2. Open the menu and select [AUDIO SETUP]. Select [MIC LEVEL], set it to
[MANUAL] and close the menu.

3. Adjust the level with the SET dial.
