Recording Audio
Setting the Audio Input Type for the INPUT 1/INPUT 2 Terminals
Using the INPUT 1/INPUT 2 terminals, you can record audio independently from a microphone or audio input
source.
On the camera, set the audio-related switches for the INPUT
terminal you wish to use according to the type of audio input you
wish to use.
1 Set the audio input selection switch for the desired INPUT
terminal to AES/EBU (digital audio) or ANALOG (analog
audio).
• When the switch is set to AES/EBU, the audio recording level for
that input cannot be adjusted.
2 If you selected analog audio, set the INPUT terminal’s
ANALOG (analog source selection) switch to MIC
(microphone) or LINE (audio device).
• To supply a microphone with phantom power, set the switch to
MIC+48V instead. Make sure to connect the microphone first,
before turning the phantom power on. Keep the microphone
connected when turning off the phantom power.
• When using the INPUT terminals to record to only one channel, use the INPUT 1 terminal.
IMPORTANT
• When connecting an analog microphone or device that does not support phantom power, make sure to set
the corresponding INPUT switch to MIC or LINE, respectively. If you set the switch to MIC+48V, the
microphone or device may be damaged.

When shooting MP4 clips, you can choose either 4-channel linear PCM or 2-channel MPEG-4 AAC-LC as the
audio format. In either case, the audio sampling bit depth is 16 bit.
