source for each channel between the built-in
microphone, another microphone, or audio
equipment connected to the camera.

Use the INPUT 1/2 switch to switch the audio
input.
LINE: (audio equipment is connected)
Input level is 0 dBu.
MIC: (another microphone is connected)
Input level is -50 dBu.
You can change the input level to -60 dBu in
the setup menus, RECORDING SETUP
screen MIC GAIN 1 and MIC GAIN 2 (Page
74). Be aware that sensitivity will be higher if
you choose -60 dBu so you will record more
noise.
