Using the WM-V1 Wireless Microphone
Using the optional WM-V1 Wireless Microphone, you can reliably record sound even when recording
subjects at a distance exceeding the practical range of the built-in microphone. You can also mix and
record audio from the WM-V1 with audio from the built-in microphone. For details about using the
WM-V1, refer to the instruction manual supplied with the microphone.
Using Commercially Available Microphones
You can also use commercially available condenser microphones
with their own power supply and a cable no longer than 3 m. You
can connect almost any stereo microphone with a

3.5 mm
plug but audio recording levels may vary.
