Selecting the audio mode
MV300/MV300i can record sound in two audio modes — 16-bit and 12-bit. The
16-bit mode produces the higher sound quality (slightly superior to CD) while the
12-bit mode records on two channels (stereo 1), leaving two channels free (stereo
2) for you to add new sound at a later date.

For greater creative control over audio recording, you can connect an external
microphone to the camera via the MIC terminal. When using the MIC terminal,
use a microphone with a built-in power supply (condenser microphone). It is
possible to connect almost any stereo microphone with a plug diameter of 3.5 mm
(
1
/
8 in), however, their audio levels will be different from that of the built-in
microphone.
1. Slide the microphone onto the accessory shoe.
2. Connect the microphone to the MIC terminal.
• Use the MB-100 Microphone Boom (optional) to keep long microphones out of
the frame.
• You can monitor the sound while recording by attaching stereo headphones to
the H terminal.
