Audio Level Switch
Since an ALC (Automatic Level Control) circuit is
built into this camera, the sound level is automati
cally controlled for recording at the right level.
NORMAL: For normal recording.
LOW: • When making movies in noisy places, this
setting can record the sound while avoid
ing the surrounding noise (for interviews
on the streets, etc.).
• When you want to record a particularly
loud noise (such as jet planes or trains)
without distortion.
Recording from an External Audio Source (AUX)
When filming while recording sound from a tape
recorder, phonograph or TV, please use the Canon
Connecting Cord C300L for direct recording, be
cause recording with the microphone will pick up
other noises.

ment (or line out/earphone jack) to the AUX.jack
on the camera using the Canon Connecting Cord
C300L.
2. First switch the audio equipment on, and then
