NOTES
An external microphone overrides the built-in microphone. The built-in
microphone’s directionality cannot be changed when an external micro-
phone is attached to the mini advanced shoe.
Audio Equalizer
You can use the audio equalizer to adjust sound levels by specifically
targeting the high- or low-frequency range and selecting one of 3 avail-
able levels. The audio equalizer settings are only available when
recording sound using the built-in microphone.

more powerful sound.

noise of blowing wind, a car’s engine and similar ambient
sounds.

music and clearly capture the special sound characteristics of a
variety of instruments.
