sound. Stereo sound recording is possible by
connecting an external stereo microphone
(commercially-available) equipped with a
miniature stereo plug (3.5 mm) to the
camera’s external microphone IN terminal
(p.16). When an external microphone is
connected, sound recording will switch
automatically to the external microphone.
