1 Microphone
This is a super-cardioid directional microphone with an external power
supply (+48 V) system. You can use it as an interview microphone by
connecting it to an extension cable (not supplied).
2 MIC IN (microphone input) connector (XLR type, 3-pin, female)
The supplied microphone connects to this connector. You can connect a
microphone other than the supplied one as long as it corresponds to an
external power supply system. The connector supplies power (+48 V) to
the microphone.
3 MIC/MENU knob
This knob adjusts the audio level of the front microphone. To adjust the
front microphone level, set the DISPLAY switch to ON, then push the
MENU switch to CANCEL. The audio level indication will appear on
the viewfinder screen. Note that you can do this only when the AUDIO
SELECT switches are set to MANUAL and the AUDIO IN switches are
set to FRONT.
